At a world tour level wind tunnel testing has become the norm, but the logistics of getting a whole team of riders, bikes, wheel options and kit to the testing centre can be problematic, so Lidl-Trek have looked beyond the tunnel in search of performance gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lidl-Trek have partnered with Aerosensor to get accurate aerodynamic data on the road rather than the wind tunnel. Aerosensor offers real-time aerodynamic drag measurement and body position monitoring without inerfering with the rider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWorking with Lidl-Trek represents a significant milestone for Aerosensor,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0says Dr. Garrood, founder and CEO of Aerosensor.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership is a strong endorsement of our aerodynamic optimization technology, offering us an exceptional opportunity for practical application and innovation at the pinnacle of competitive cycling.\u00a0For Aerosensor, this is an opportunity to demonstrate how our aerodynamic cycling system can benefit competitive cyclists at the highest levels of the sport.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAerosensor\u2019s technology gives us the unique chance to replicate on the road a test similar to the one we do in wind tunnel or velodrome,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0explains De Kort.\u00a0\u201cIt gives us a practical advantage, because with the tight schedule of the season it\u2019s always complicated to organize such complex testing event. Now we have a solution that give us extra testing time, as well as allowing us to go more and more deep into details. Then, other than secondary, cycling races happens outside: doing reliable aerodynamics tests in real conditions provides an added value\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aerosensor combines data from your ANT+ speed sensor and power meter with its own measurements of altitude and wind conditions to calculate your aerodynamic drag coefficient, CdA. This is displayed in realtime on your bike computer. Change your body position or equipment and see the results for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get the pro setup for your next TT or Triathlon, Aerosensor is available directly to customers on their website<\/a>. Our full range of Speed Concepts are available here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
