Ready for the roads and the unexpected challenges that come with them, the new iBike Phone Booth 5 case now provides extreme weather/water protection and shock absorption to protect your iPhone from the elements.  iBike Phone Booth 5 features new water sealing iBike Click-LatchTM system that provides water protection with an audible click sound for assurance that your iPhone is safely sealed inside the protective iBike case (see iPhone Booth 5 water demonstration video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=layc2L1AHY8&list=UUADv_bz6ln9rqbtbQmS-0uw&index=6&feature=plcp).

 

The new iBike Phone Booth 5 case is shorter, sleeker, and lighter than the original iBike Phone Booth case, which makes it easier to use on your bike.  In addition, the new cushioning Phone Booth “sled” now holds the iPhone 5 safely and securely in the case, with a creative design that allows you to remove your iPhone 5 quickly and conveniently whenever you wish.

 

iBike Phone Booth Dual Mount: Position iPhone in Portrait OR Landscape Setup – Your Choice

Time to get on your iBike: Rebecca Romero reviews a new cycling computer

By REBECCA ROMERO, Olympic gold medalist

PUBLISHED: 17:00 EST, 17 March 2012

A device that turns your iPhone into a bike computer – gold medal winner, or false start?

London Mail on iBike Dash Cycling Computer by Rebecca Romero, Olympic Gold Medalist!

I may be the only British woman to win Olympic medals at two separate sports – rowing and cycling – but that doesn’t mean I’m always fast with technology.

The iBike Dash is a new cycling computer from America that has full colour graphics, touchscreen controls, and even animation.

If it sounds complicated, don’t worry, because it’s linked to an iPhone (or iPod Touch) and is a simple tool for any cyclist.

Once the mount is attached to the handlebar there are a couple of cables that link to wheel and pedal sensors, which are easy to fit.

Then you slide the casing onto the mount and you’re ready to go.

It’s waterproof and fairly robust, so your expensive iPhone won’t be damaged in a shower – or if the worst happens and you take a tumble.

London Mail on iBike Dash Cycling Computer by Rebecca Romero, Olympic Gold Medalist!

The iBike Dash is controlled by an iPhone app, which displays all kinds of readouts, from hill slope to elevation, trip distance to cadence.

The app pops up as soon as you mount the iPhone on the bike.

I particularly liked the speedo because it looks like a dial from a car dashboard. It’s very accurate, even at low speeds. If you’re using it with an iPhone, it also shows you where you are on a map, which is really useful if you’re on long cycle rides.

There are lots of ways to configure the screen, it’s just a case of finding one that suits you. It wasn’t that long ago that cyclists didn’t have computer technology to help them train.

Even in my six years of cycling – I’m now preparing for an Ironman event in July – computer systems have developed at a very fast rate.

You have a vast amount of information at your disposal and it makes a big difference to the way you train.

Most competitive cyclists nowadays use SRAM, a much more complicated system that requires a new crankset and can cost up to £2,500.

The iBike is a much cheaper option but for most cyclists it will be more than enough to improve their performance.

Even a recreational cyclist will find it useful, from looking up the next coffee shop to checking the wind speed on the route back home.

The iBike Dash + Power costs £350, ibikesports.com .

CES BOOTH

iBIKE #3430 – NORTH HALL

 VELOCOMP INTRODUCES IBIKE POWERHOUSE FOR IPHONE/IPOD TOUCH AT CES — 

World’s First Intelligent Cycling Computer that Automatically Adjusts to Your Exercise Goals  

Featuring Fitness Plans “iSlim,” “Kid Fit,” “Brazilian Butt,” & More

Designed by Hunter Allen, the Foremost Power-Cycling Coach in the World

January 3, 2012 – Boca Raton, FL – Velocomp www.ibikesports.com, a leading sports technology company and creator of the iBike Dash CC Cycling Computer, introduced today iBike® POWERHOUSETM, the world’s first intelligent cycling computer that automatically adjusts

to your exercise goals.  Based on periodic assessments of your fitness improvements, the revolutionary iBike POWERHOUSE works with your iPhone and iPod touch to measure, guide and motivate you to achieve important health, appearance, and fitness goals. The POWERHOUSE method maximizes the benefit of each ride and shortens the time needed to achieve results.

To be introduced on January 10th at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2012) in Las Vegas, NV, Booth #3430, iBike POWERHOUSE combines iBike’s patented power measurement and analysis technologies with automatically-adjusting, goal-oriented cycling plans — all delivered through the incredible display and computing power of the iPhone/iPod touch. 

 

Choose Your Goal-Based Plan – iBike POWERHOUSE Guides You Step-by-Step

 

Working out with iBike POWERHOUSE is easy.  Select a goal-based plan, from “iSlim,” “Express Fitness,” “Brazilian Butt,” “Kid Fit,” “Weekend Warrior,” “Zero to 50 miles in 3 weeks,” and “Healthy Heart” — just some of the plans available through in-app purchases.  Then, over a period of 4-6 weeks, iBike POWERHOUSE guides you through a series of 45-90 minute bike rides.  During each ride, you are directed to pedal at specific levels of effort (power), customized to the plan’s goals and your measured fitness level.  So, a “couch potato” will start out at a challenging but lower level of effort, whereas a fitter cyclist will start the same plan at a significantly higher level of effort.  

Fitness Plans Designed by Power-Cycling Coach Hunter Allen

iBike POWERHOUSE’s fitness plans are designed by Hunter Allen, the world’s foremost power-cycling coach.  Allen’s plans have been proven over nearly 20 years of coaching cyclists at all levels — from beginner to world class.  And, in addition to the structured ride information for each plan, videos are included with tips from Allen for getting the most out of your cycling.  

iBike POWERHOUSE is a complete system, including:

  • A water/shock resistant case for the iPhone/iPod touch.
  • Patented electronics that perform all cycling measurements, including power.
  • An app that interacts with iBike’s electronics.
  • A wireless speed/cadence sensor.
  • Universal mounting system.
  • The ability to listen to music or take phone calls while cycling

“The iBike POWERHOUSE is the only product that creates cycling plans customized to your fitness level and goals, and that automatically adjusts as you improve”, said John Hamann, CEO, Velocomp.  “iBike POWERHOUSE is a must for anyone who owns a bike and who wants to achieve measurable improvement towards health and fitness goals.”

Priced at $279 MSRP, iBike POWERHOUSE includes the case, electronics, POWERHOUSE app, speed/cadence sensor, iSlim Plan, and mounting system. Additional fitness plans are available in-app, priced at $9.99 each.  iBike POWERHOUSE is fully compatible with all bicycle ANT+ HR sensors.   For more information, see www.ibikesports.com.

Men's Journal Features Thomas PR Clients iGrill & iBike Dash CC

BBQ SOUS-CHEF

IGRILL (igrillinc.com; $99)

WHAT IT IS: A wireless thermometer that relays the progress of your precious slabs of meat on the grill.

HOW IT HELPS: Instead of sweating over hot coals, why not knock golf balls around the yard while the porterhouses make their way to medium (or a really well-done 400 degrees)? Just insert the probe into your steak, set the desired temp, and wander up to 200 feet away. Your phone will buzz you when the meat’s done to your liking.

Men's Journal Features Thomas PR Clients iGrill & iBike Dash CC
CYCLING COMPUTER
IBIKE DASH (ibikesports.com; $199)

WHAT IT IS: A weatherproof, handlebar-mounted iPhone dock that works with a fork-mounted speed sensor.

HOW IT HELPS: By collecting mountains of data. During rides, your speed, distance, routes, lap times, and more get logged. Afterward you can sync to a PC or Mac and dull the pain of recovery time by poring over your stats. Its other service? Sparing you the indignity of tucking your phone into your Lycra shorts.
