TAIPEI, Taiwan (BRAIN) — Prologo unveiled at Taipei Cycle its Pressure Map MyOwn system for bike-fitters, specialized retailers, and pro road teams, analyzing a rider's pedaling to determine the best saddle.
Pressure Map MyOwn is now being used by biomechanists and performance managers from pro teams, in collaboration with Prologo technicians, to optimize athletes' positioning and increase comfort.
The system consists of a mat that fits over the saddle equipped with 64 sensors connected to a wireless control unit powered by a battery. It transmits data by Bluetooth to a smartphone app. The system is compatible with any saddle brand.
Testing can be done indoors and outdoors, allowing a fitter to consider vibrations, movements, and pressures of riding on paved roads, either on flat or uphill terrain. Analysis occurs in three positions for 30 seconds: hands on the tops, hoods, and drops.
Pressure Map is designed to work with the MyOwn Fitting System cube to select the most suitable saddle for each type of cyclist.
