CompuTrainer provides the most interesting indoor bike experience yet created. It increases your cycling power by 20 to 30% and your speed by 2 to 4 MPH. Whatever your starting point, you’ll improve significantly.

CompuTrainer is best in its class by a wide margin. It sets the industry standard for accuracy (± 2.5%), power (1500 watts), quality, and service lifetime (10+ years). Exclusive performance features like SpinScan™ electronic pedal stroke analysis and Adjustable Aerodynamic Drag Factor are unique to CompuTrainer. Cycling and triathlon coaches worldwide use CompuTrainer as their primary testing instrument. USA Triathlon and USA Cycling test and train their team athletes with CompuTrainer.

Two important technical innovations in have significantly increased CompuTrainer’s training value:
 
1. The Aerodynamic Drag Factor in the CompuTrainer software algorithm is now individually adjustable, an industry first. It allows the rider to adjust the ADF to account for his own body geometry and riding position. CompuTrainer accuracy increases another notch.
 
2. 2007 marked the introduction of a landmark improvement in the CompuTrainer interactive training experience:
Interactive REAL Course Videos. Videos of famous triathlon and bike courses are filmed in High Definition and are then combined with our interactive, GPS mapped software to make you feel like you’re on the real course. Filming of complete bike courses on race day provides superior realism and race simulation. Ironman® and Ironman® 70.3 bike courses are exclusively available from RacerMate. View HERE for latest available courses along with sample videos.
