The award-winning bike products at Ispo
The sporting goods trade fair Ispo will take place from January 28 to 31, 2015 in Beijing and from February 5 to 8, 2015 in Munich. 46 jurors from 12 countries have selected the winners for the 2015/2016 awards from 445 entries. Here are the winners from the bike industry:
Filming without camera shake
Mountain biking and filming - they go hand in hand. And in future, it will be even easier: "Luuv", an action cam and smartphone stabilizer, was awarded the Product of the Year Award at Ispo.
Videos that are shot by hand are usually blurred and therefore mostly out of focus. The use of the "Luuv" makes it easier to create blur-free and sharp films. "Luuv" combines the technology of professional steadycams with absolutely simple operation. The stabilizer was specially developed for outdoor sports, but is also suitable for everyday use.
Trailmech gives you the choice
The Trailmech hub can boast the Ispo Award: This rear hub offers an innovative engagement mechanism for singlespeed - or gearing with six degrees of freewheel.
PRunning on the spot
Tomahawk IC7 Indoor Cycle: The most precise power bike in the world - and the only one that uses so-called color zone technology for maximum fitness monitoring and training effect, according to the Ispo Award jury, which presented the Product of the Year Award. Thanks to its advanced digital technology and design, the IC7 is said to be as intelligent as it is resilient - and scientific tests prove that you can achieve better training results faster with this device.
Better informed when lighting
The Bike Light BC30R from Fenix won the Ispo Gold Award - and is a bike light with the so-called Dual Distance Beam System from Fenix. The OLED display clearly shows the remaining light duration at the currently set light intensity, as well as the battery status. Special cooling fins ensure heat dissipation. The two neutral white LEDs provide up to 1,600 lumens of light.
Award-winning protectors
Protectors that also cut a fine figure on the bike were also the focus of the Ispo jury. The Evolution Jacket from Alpinestars won the Ispo Award. This offers a unique combination of protection (removable shoulders and back section), hydration system (back pocket) and storage space (two rear pockets). The G-form Pro-X Knee-Shin Guard knee and shin guard also won an Ispo Award. For maximum protection, the PRO-X Knee-Shin Guard uses an impact technology developed by G-Form itself. The protector is flexible, lightweight and hardens on impact.
