Velocomp AeroPod+ Power Meter

Description

AeroPod+ Power Meter
Meet the new AeroPod+ Power Meter, Velocomp’s latest and greatest power meter! Like the previous generation PowerPod, the AeroPod+ mounts on your handlebars and uses opposing force technology to measure power. Once set up and configured, it is accurate and provides loads of data through its free Isaac software. In addition, due to its unique design, it is affordable, light weight, compatible with any bike and can be moved from bike to bike.
Please read all of the information below and contact us if you have any questions! Please also note we sell the AeroPod (non "+" version) for 9. The two versions are nearly identical, however the 9 version does not include Velocomp’s PowerStroke and GPS Tracker features.
Standalone Power Meter
When used on its own, the AeroPod+ measures and sends power data directly to your bicycle computer or head unit. In fact, in addition to an all new slim design, the AeroPod+ uses a completely new generation of sensors, which makes it more accurate and consistent than its predecessor.
In addition, the Velocomp AeroPod+ features dual ANT+ and Bluetooth SMART, a USB rechargeable battery and comes loaded with Velocomp’s PowerStroke Software which allows you to see wasted watts, motion and distance.
AeroPod+ + 2nd Power Meter Gives You CdA Data
When used in conjunction with a direct force power meter, the AeroPod+ Power Meter also provides real-time, aerodynamic drag data (or coefficient of drag – CdA). The AeroPod+ is the only device available that can simultaneously measure power AND aerodynamic drag!
Highlights
CdA Measurement
– The only device available that can simultaneously measure power AND aerodynamic drag when used with a direct force power meter.
ANT+ and Bluetooth SMART
– The power meter comes with both ANT+ and Bluetooth SMART. This means you can use it with a bicycle computer or smart phone.
PowerStroke
– PowerStroke comes fully loaded on the AeroPod+, allowing you to analyze your pedal stroke in great detail.
Light weight
– The AeroPod+ weighs just 40 grams. To put it in perspective, this is about the weight of 40, average size paperclips.
Compatible
– Since the power meter attaches to the handlebars, compatibility is a non-factor. You don’t have to worry about changing out any of your favorite components. In addition, it will work on road bikes, cross bikes and mountain bikes.
