The iBike Dash CC (Cycling Computer) turns a bicycle into a versatile exercising machine. The system incorporates sensors and external data to measuring the rider’s speed, power, heart rate, wind speed, time, trip, elevation, and calories. A free iPhone/iPod touch Bike App displays the data on a iPhone or iPod touch screen with color graphics and animation.
The system uses ANT+ sensors to wirelessly transmit the bike’s computer data. Compatible with all A
NT+ speed, cadence and heart rate sensors, the iBike Dash Includes an ANT+ speed sensor – sensors for cadence and HR are optional.
Using the unit’s HR Pacing Meter, the rider determines fitness level with five Heart Rate Color Zones (from 50% to 100%) to address goals from losing weight in the lower zones to improving fitness in the middle zones, to maximizing performance in the top zones.
