4iiii Innovations pro-tested powermeters and heart rate monitors launch in South Africa

· By Press Office · 28 comments

The powermeters used by BORA-hansgrohe and Quick-Step Floors Pro Cycling Teams offer riders lightweight, reliable, and highly-accurate data.

4iiii Innovations Inc. is a Canadian-based global leader in providing innovative wearable technologies to OEM and retail markets. 4iiii brings an integrated portfolio of technology that raises the bar in sport monitoring, enabling athletes to perform smarter, faster and safer.

Since 2012, 4iiii has gained an enviable reputation for developing leading-edge sports monitoring products. With PRECISION, the company introduced a new level in lightweight powermeters.

The 4iiii PRECISION is a left, single-sided powermeter with proprietary 3D technology that measures tri-axial strain in a bicycle crank arm with an accuracy of +/- 1%. PRECISION is the world’s lightest powermeter – weighing just 9 g – in addition to being completely waterproof. PRECISION delivers real-time power output in watts and is both ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart compatible. PRECISION also distinguishes itself with its over-the-air upgrades via both iOS and Android.

The 4iiii Podiiiium is the dual-sided, much-anticipated turnkey pairing of the pro’s-choice PRECISION Powermeter and Shimano’s lightweight evolution of the FC-R9100. The new Podiiiium PRECISION Powermeter uses the same waterproof and highly accurate technology, with a new slim profile that makes it compatible across a variety of cranks.

White-capped 4iiii PRECISION PRO Powermeters distinguish podium-dominating World Tour teams Quick-Step Floors and BORA-hansgrohe at the Tour de France. 4iiii PRECISION incorporates the same technology, but in a affordable single-sided version.

The 4iiii Ride Ready option of the PRECISION Powermeters provides the lightest and most cost-effective left-side powermeter on a Shimano Dura-Ace FC-R9100.

The 4iiii Viiiiva is the first ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart heart rate monitor to bridge ANT+ devices, while transmitting the data over Bluetooth to display devices. The Viiiiva is 10 times more sensitive and 5 times more responsive than most heart rate monitors and features advanced beat-to-beat measuring technology. It can also store up to 65 hours of activity data without the need for a paired device and offers a handy tap-to-pair feature, removing the need for complicated pairing scenarios.

The left-sided PRECISION Ride-Ready Powermeter is available immediately for Shimano 105 5800, Ultegra 6800, Dura Ace 9000, Dura Ace 9100, XT M8000, XTR M9000 and XTR M9020. The dual-sided Podiiiium Powermeters for Shimano R8000 and Dura Ace 9100 will be available in January 2018.

4iiii aims to bring highly accurate power and heart rate data to market at incredibly competitive prices. All products can be purchased online at 4iiii.co.za or at local dealers.

Good to see a local agent.

 

I’ve been using the Precision unit since Sep-2016 (8700km later), split between two bikes.

Competition is never a bad thing for the consumer.

Will have to upgrade my wife's cycling computer if I'm getting her one though...

Just ordered mine last night and quickly called them by midday to change the colour, they had to call back the courier to come and change it. Happy with the quick reaction thus far. Looking forward to testing it this weekend.

Super service from Andrew and Jon. I ordered my R8000 Shimano, it was delivered within 24 hours. Works like a charm, really pleased with my purchase.

The website is playing up a bit, can't get to the FAQ section.

 

So a question.  Can they retrofit into a used Alu crank, Shitmano/Campy locally?

I spoke to one of them at the Argus expo and they told me if I wanted it fitted to my crank because I have sram then they'll have to ship it to Canada and do it there. The costs would be more than just buying a crank.

After many months of research and saving I finally bought one. I'm extremely impressed with service, as it was delivered within 2 days to the house. I was super excited to fit and play, but the misses signed for the box and proceeded to wrap it  :angry:  , and its now under the Christmas tree. Oh well, just a few more days until I can finally play, and then I will be :D .

You should have removed the content and let her wrap the box.

I'm sure you could still have acted surprised. LOL
