Verde BMX 2011 in


Verde Prism 2011 green VK 439,90 EUR
Our second new model for 2011, the Prism, fits nicely in the low to mid price range. Our most exciting feature for 2011 debuts on this bike, an investment cast integrated head tube. Investment casting is gaining popularity in the BMX world, and who can argue, it allows us to create beautiful parts at an affordable price. The brand new DUO plastic pedals also show up on the Prism.

High quality frame built with seamless Japanese tubing offers our new investment cast head tube, chromoly down tube, and integrated seat clamp. Brand name parts from DUO include Doyle grips and the new Resilite pedals which are found exclusively on Verde bikes for 2011. An integrated lower bearing race on the fork is featured on the Prism model on up. This provides less installation time and less headaches.

A chromoly main frame and steerer tube give comfort to larger riders while not draing their bank account. A full-sized padded Verde Pivotal seat is now stock on the Vex.

Bianchi Pista 2011


The Bianchi 2011 Pista Sei Giorni is a tribute to the 6 day track races, which lasts 24 hours a day, and the winning team is that who completes the most laps. Pista Sei Giorni translates to Track Six Days.

Now, the 2011 Bianchi Pista Sei Giorni fixed features a aluminum frame and fork, 48t crank, 16t fixed cog (with a single speed flip flop), drop track handlebars, and a front brake (although not shown in the picture). A dominate white paint job, plus red hints are sure to turn a few heads.

Bianchi will introduce a few new fixed gear bikes for 2011 (some have released in previous years, just new colors added). One model we take a look at is the Pista Dalmine.

Not information is known on the 2011 Bianchi Pista Dalmine, although it comes with flat bars, aluminum frame and fork (mix of aluminum and carbon), 48t crank, and SRAM Torpedo fixed and freewheel hub. We must admit, the colorway of white and aqua blue is very appealing. via

Apple SmartBike Data Recording !?

Bald könnten auch Radfahrer von Apples Technologien profitieren. In einem Patentantrag beschreibt der Hersteller, wie man mit Sensoren in iPods und iPhone relevante Daten eines Fahrradfahres in Echtzeit sammeln könnte – in ähnlicher Weise wie es das Nike+ iPod Sport-Kit bereits bei Läufern macht.
Das System hätte den Vorteil, dass viele Sensoren bereits in Apples Hardware integriert sind und man deshalb nicht in weiteres Zubehör investieren müsste, schreibt Appleinsider. Unter anderem könnten Apples Geräte Informationen zu Geschwindigkeit, der Beschleunigung, der Höhe sowie zur Entfernung sammeln. Ein GPS-System könnte zudem den Standort bestimmen. Ein weiterer Vorteil: Über zahlreiche Netzwerk-Techniken könnte man die Informationen während des Fahrens mit anderen Sportlern austauschen. Wie Zukunftsmusik klingt Apples Idee, holografische Displays und Projektoren im System zu integrieren. Via.
