FloatRyde bridges the gap between subjective rider feel and overly complex race telemetry. A scalable, plug-and-play dynamic intelligence ecosystem delivering scientific ISO vibration analysis, guided setup optimization, and future-ready OEM telemetry.
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. Synchronous multi-point acquisition calibrated against ISO standards (2631-1 & 5349-1) to isolate body-transmitted vibrations, map off-road riding dynamics, and lay the foundation for predictive maintenance and smart setup guidance.
A standalone hardware platform delivering lab-grade vibration metrics directly on the trail—designed for tool-free, 5-minute mounting on any bike platform.

1 Central Master Unit coordinating 2 to 4 Peripheral IMU Nodes wirelessly. Selectable sampling rate (208 Hz / 417 Hz) for detailed dynamic capture across fork, handlebar, and frame.
Direct normalization of acceleration vectors adhering to ISO 2631-1 (whole-body vibration) and ISO 5349-1 (hand-arm vibration) to objectively measure rider comfort thresholds.
Tool-free mounting using modular rubber-backed spacers. Zero cables, integrated LiPo batteries, and instant automatic pairing with the mobile companion app.
The cross-platform app connects seamlessly to customize bike setup profiles (frame, wheels, suspensions), manage sensor nodes, download recorded telemetry runs, and preview automated setup feedback.

Key insights from our proprietary empirical research conducted on 328 active cyclists across Road, Gravel, and Mountain Bike disciplines.
FloatRyde is conceived as an end-to-end data platform. From field-proven baseline telemetry to predictive maintenance, digital coaching, and OEM connected intelligence.
Wireless multi-node hardware prototype, synchronized high-frequency IMU acquisition, and calibrated vibration analysis based on ISO 2631-1 & ISO 5349-1 standards.
Automating mechanical setup recommendations (damper rebound, air pressures, tire PSI) mapped from empirical multi-axis disturbance data.
Predictive hardware wear monitoring (suspension fluid & bearings) paired with wearable multi-sensor coaching to assess active riding technique, energy conservation, and dynamic efficiency.
Direct frame-integrated architecture powered by main e-bike batteries, alongside crowdsourced dynamic data intelligence for component manufacturers.
