iBike Powerhouse

iBike Powerhouse is the world's first intelligent cycling computer that automatically adjusts to your exercise goals.

Based on periodic assessments of your fitness improvements, the Powerhouse works with your iPhone and iPod touch to measure, guide and motivate you to achieve important health, appearance, and fitness goals. The Powerhouse method maximises the benefit of each ride and shortens the time needed to achieve results.

iBike Powerhouse combines iBike's patented power measurement and analysis technologies with automatically-adjusting, goal-oriented cycling plans - all delivered through the incredible display and computing power of the iPhone/iPod touch.

Select a goal-based plan, from "iSlim," "Express Fitness", "Brazilian Butt", "Kid Fit", "Weekend Warrior", "Zero to 50 miles in 3 weeks", and "Healthy Heart" - just some of the plans available through in-app purchases. Then, over a period of four to six weeks, iBike Powerhouse guides you through a series of 45 to 90 minute bike rides. During each ride, you are directed to pedal at specific levels of effort (power), customised to the plan's goals and your measured fitness level. So, a "couch potato" will start out at a challenging but lower level of effort, whereas a fitter cyclist will start the same plan at a significantly higher level of effort.

iBike Powerhouse is a complete system, including:

* A water/shock resistant case for the iPhone/iPod touch.
* Patented electronics that perform all cycling measurements, including power.
* An app that interacts with iBike's electronics.
* A wireless speed/cadence sensor.
* Universal mounting system.
* The ability to listen to music or take phone calls while cycling
