THE PTS TEAM WILL MAKE YOU FASTER

THE PTS High Performance Team will utilize the Bioracer Aero System to guide you into your optimal aerodynamic position.

Focusing on your FRONTAL AREA.

By measuring your frontal surface, whilst training on a roller system, the amount of watt that you have to pedal to maintain a certain (hypothetical) speed in that specific position is calculated. You will get real time information on these parameters (frontal surface and power), as these parameters are adjusted instantly, when you change your position on the bike.

Because every second counts…

Once the most optimal aerodynamic position of the cyclist is determined, it is important that a rider learns to stay in that position as long as possible. To give you an idea, lowering your frontal area with 0.05m² (piece of cake with the software) for 10s in a 40km race (at 40km/h) will make you go 1 second faster …. meaning winning or losing!  With the new feature of the Bioracer Aero you can now train your aerodynamic position while training on your roling system. Not only will you be able to improve your (shoulder) flexibility and capacity to produce maximal power while cycling in your aero position, you will also train muscle memory.  This enhanced muscle memory will help you take your aerodynamic position much more naturally.

Put the webcam and your laptop in front of you before you start your training. Determine the position that you want to train and the duration of your training and get started.

During your training the contour fitting technology will give you livestream visual feedback on your current position compared to the optimal position. Moreover, a graph will update you during the training on the amount of time you stayed in your optimal position. You can even choose your own training zones which will be shown in the graph as well.

Once you finished your training, the report will provide you detailed aerodynamics results on your training session.

The session will take approx. 1hr and the whole process will be overseen by a Sport Scientist and one of our High Performance Coaches.
