That new product announcement you have all been waiting for
Posted: Thu Apr 01, 2010 6:49 pm
You all may have known that there is something in the works, but you have no idea how busy we have been.
Today I would like to announce our new Gen5! units. We have already gone through number 4 and beyond that.
Some of the new features are going to be.
- three wind ports for better dealing with crosswind readings
- solar panel rechargeable units. Never worry about going through batteries again, plus if you live in a sunny area the unit can actually provide enough energy for a small motor near the crank. Literally your iBike can help you pedal on a sunny day.
- customized food recommendations. Your iBike will tell you based on how long and hard you rode where to eat dinner and what to get.
- 22 data fields on the home screen. We have found a way to get rid of that red button. Every bit of information will now be displayed on the home screen to eliminate the need for scrolling through features. You can still access the setup menu by shouting "set up" into the microphone.
- climate controlled waterbottle cages. For those hot summer days when you want your bottle to stay cold and not have to reach down for them. We have hired a German engineer for this last one and as a result the iBike will now be much more in line with competitors prices.
Expected retail is estimated to be around $2895 USD and should be available for purchase "very soon"
