www.dcrainmaker.com/2011/06/2011-sport-device-gps-accuracy-in-depth.html

At this point I’d suspect I’ll wait until all of the summer related releases occur (including things leading up in EuroBike/Interbike in late August).

www.dcrainmaker.com/2017/09/favero-assioma-review.html

I tend to wait until after the Eurobike/Interbike trade shows to do so, though I don’t really expect any further new entrants this year at Interbike (could be surprised though!).

Xert Training Platform In-Depth Review

Then the hell that is Eurobike-Interbike-ANT+ Symposium conventions and travel sets in for September, where cycling drops off.

This allows me to test various things, especially important as we ramp up to Eurobike less than a month away.

More trainers, a touch of snow, and a new bike

www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/12/more-trainers-a-touch-of-snow-and-a-new-bike.html

Numbers which albeit even the Power2Max guys to me at Eurobike admitted are highly susceptible to being skewed.

An awesome ride in the Swiss Alps

And this past week, while working my way back home from Eurobike, I set aside a few hours (ok, a lot of hours) for a climb up the majestic Grosse Scheidegg in Switzerland.

I might knock out a full review of it next week, we’ll see how much time I end up having, since I want to get out a few other cycling related things before Eurobike.

SIGMA ROX 12.0 Sport Cycling GPS In-Depth Review

www.dcrainmaker.com/2018/06/sigma-cycling-review.html

If for no other reason than for at least half a decade the company has been at events like Eurobike, Interbike, and the ANT+ Symposium – trying to find just the right piece of hardware to get that viral unit like Wahoo got with their BOLT.

Power2Max goes to $599 – Joins Quarq, Pioneer in April power meter price slashing

www.dcrainmaker.com/2015/04/power2max-pioneer-slashing.html

Part of that (if I can take a slight detour here) is that Eurobike/Interbike is actually really poor timing for the bike industry.

Round-up video of all my CES 2019 final thoughts up!

www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/01/round-video-thoughts.html

These were the ones announced last year at Eurobike and are nearly ready for release.

www.dcrainmaker.com/2015/11/verve-infocrank-review.html

Bluetooth Support: Finally, longer term they noted that they recognize the need for Bluetooth, but that it’s not a short-term item, but probably more around the Eurobike next year timeframe.

5 Random Things I Did This Weekend

I had previously riden it back in late August ahead of Eurobike to prepare my post/video, plus some other random bits here and there over the last year or so.

Garmin’s Vivomove HR: Everything you need to know

www.dcrainmaker.com/2017/09/garmins-vivomove-everything.html

As such, I didn’t end up wearing it much the first few days at Eurobike, aside from pairing it to my phone and poking at it a little bit inside in the evenings.

Hands-on: SRM’s new EXAKT Power Meter Pedals

www.dcrainmaker.com/2018/05/hands-exakt-pedals.html

I’ll also likely release a new version of that previous comparison post, with the EXAKT in there, and in the highly unlikely chance anything else pedal-wise comes out of Eurobike, that too.

www.dcrainmaker.com/2018/12/augmented-reality-training.html

It’s something they demo’d this past summer at Eurobike (and I even made a video about it then).

My Winter 2015-2016 Sports Gadget Recommendations

www.dcrainmaker.com/2015/11/winter-sports-gadget-recommendations.html

Obviously, given it’s now basically the trainer season, there’s no more trainers coming out till at the earliest mid-next year, with most announcements typically happening at Eurobike in August each year.
