An ergometer (1) has a saddle, the saddle support point position (2) of which is adjustable in the vertical direction (y) and longitudinal direction (x) of the ergometer (1), a handlebar, the handlebar position (9) of which is adjustable in the vertical direction (y) and longitudinal direction (x) of the ergometer (1), a pedal part (15), the bottom bracket shaft (14) of which is arranged fixedly on the ergometer, and an adjustment device (5) by means of which the saddle support point position (2) and the handlebar position (9) can be set. In order with minimum effort to perfectly set the ergometer to the individual anatomical dimensions of a person using the ergometer (1), it is proposed that the adjustment device (5) has a control device (21) by means of which the adjustment device (5) can be automatically motor-operated corresponding to predetermined setpoint values for the saddle support point position (2) and the handlebar position (9), and that the predetermined setpoint values for the saddle support point position (2) and the handlebar position (9) can be individually calculated for a person in a computing unit (22) from ergonomic data of said person that are recorded by means of an external device unit (23).
