Description

Concept2 was started in 1976 in a Vermont barn by brothers Peter and Dick Dreissigacker, who had made carbon fiber oars while training for the Montreal Olympic trials. It made its first rowing machine in 1981, and its RowErg is used by Olympians, commercial gyms and home users for rowing training, testing and racing, alongside its oars and other ergs.
