BICYCLE TESTING

ROAD TESTING PERFORMANCE & STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

The Challenge:

• Equipment manufacturers need to field test performance cycles
• Measuring acceleration, speed, strain and displacement in situ
• Bulky test equipment that adds mass (up to 5+ gk) or alters test dynamics & CG
• Large systems that require rider to wear in backpack
• Shock and vibration tolerant systems
• Environmental extremes including temperature, moisture, altitude
• Cables that can get tangled or alter test dynamics
• Configurable systems to support lab and field testing
• Long duration tests

The Solution:

• Ultra-lightweight DTS data acquisition systems (less than 200 g)
• Data recorders small enough to attach directly to the frame, forks or rider
• Positioning the DAS near sensors, eliminates long cable runs, improves data quality
• Low power, simple battery solutions for extended record time
• Modular (3-30+ channels), quick and easy set-up in the field
• Supports a variety of sensors, plus built-in sensor options
• Store in place reliability, data writes directly to flash memory
• Easy, intuitive for software set-up, viewing and data export
