One of the benefits of getting around a few bicycle shows is that you get to see the latest stuff.
More and more as bicycle hardware gets about as good as it can get, designers turn their efforts towards the bicycle rider/bicycle - man/machine - interface.
Pedals, computers, GPS, etc., have all seen huge strides, but rarely has the most basic connection between rider and bicycle been developed.
Step forward R-Sole Inc, a newcomer to cyclesport, having previously developed a popular line of hoseline connectors with their innovative seatpin/cycle short QR designed, they claim, to complete the bond between rider and bike.
Studies show that this arrangement enables riders to get 50% more power to the wheels as well as avoid the need for a colonoscopy.
