Looking for that area of marginal gain in cycling that may be the difference between you and your competition? Then you may be interested in the research projects we have underway.
Currently Pure Agilis is undertaking research in the area of low cost real-time CdA measurement. Our goal is to enable the dedicated triathlete or cyclist a low cost method of measuring their CdA and for them to make informed decisions about the best position and equipment options.
The guys over at www.aerolab.tech have already done some great work in the field of CdA measurement and we would like to acknowledge that we are building on their existing work.
Some fundamentals to understand our research.
In cycling, aerodynamic efficiency is best understood through CdA—the combined measure of drag and frontal area. Our Aerodynamic Performance & CdA work explores how position, equipment, and riding conditions influence performance using applied, real-world data.
Keep an eye out for further updates as we continue our research.
