"Body Rocket Unveils Real-Time Drag Measuring System for Road Bikes and Intriguing Prototype"

Body Rocket, known for its real-time aerodynamic drag force measurement system, has revealed a road bike prototype that brings integrated CdA measurement to bikes without aero bars, coinciding with the approach of the Paris 2024 Olympics. The system aims to provide similar insight into aerodynamics as wind tunnels without the cost, and is designed to give real-time feedback during rides and track progress over time. The prototype, which integrates seamlessly with road bikes, is being developed to help Olympic triathletes perfect their aero tuck on drop bars, and the brand has also launched its latest funding round on Crowdcube.
