FloatRyde bridges the gap between subjective rider feelings and overly complex race telemetries. An affordable, plug-and-play multi-node system delivering scientific vibration analysis and actionable tuning recommendations.
Premium bicycles are frequently ridden with miscalibrated suspensions and improper tire pressures, leaving performance and comfort on the table.
Most riders rely purely on personal feel. Incorrect sag and uncoordinated rebound damping cause premature fatigue, arm pump, and loss of traction over rough terrain.
Traditional data acquisition systems cost over €1,500, require linear potentiometers, bulky wiring harnesses, and advanced trackside engineering skills to interpret raw graphs.
Lightweight, non-invasive wireless nodes. Multi-point synchronous acquisition calibrated against scientific vibration standards (ISO 2631-1 & ISO 5349-1) to objectively classify dynamic comfort and setup needs.
Built to deliver industrial-grade precision through standardized vibration evaluation without unnecessary mechanical complexity.
