Because aerodynamics matters even indoors
airr
a patented technology that emulates your aerodynamic resistance while you are biking indoors
Cycling facts
Resistance while cycling
A cyclist is fighting 4 main resistance forces
.Air resistance, ~50% of the total
.Weight resistance, ~35% of the total
.Rolling resistance, ~11% of the total
.Mechanical frictions, ~4% of the total
Body position
Body position on the bike accounts for ~50% of all the possible aerodynamic gains
The paradox
Aero gains of body position + clothes + helmet are much higher than the ones of bike + wheels*
~125watt >> ~58watt
while the average cost is much lower
~$600 << ~$7’000
Outdoor vs Indoor - Training & Competing
Holding an aerodynamic position on the bike is tough, requires training and can be the key determinant factor during biking and triathlon competitions. At airr we transform indoor biking into an outdoor experience!
Outdoor
The body position of the cyclist plays a crucial role in overall performance
Indoor
Currently, cyclist's body position is not taken in account during indoor training sessions or electronic races. airr takes off this and makes sure that your performance indoors and outdoors is the same!
