Do It All, Anywhere! Monkii Bars

Monkii Bars
You have the TRX system, its great, the cost is getting up there, so when a $100 system comes along you take notice. Best part is that if you look at the Monkii bars, you could build them with some PVC pipe and Paracord,

 Some days we catch ourselves daydreaming about awesome locations to use monkii bars. The best part is that they’re just as easy to use outside as inside. The bottom line is that monkii bars turn the world into your gym.

Suspension Workouts

Bodyweight training is an awesome functional workout that trains upper body, core, and legs.

Setup Anywhere

The world is your gym: setup in under a minute inside or outside using any support structure.

Simply Beautiful

Designed as a conversation piece that looks as good as it functions, not to be stuffed in a gym bag.

BSXinsight, THE WORLD'S FIRST WEARABLE LACTATE THRESHOLD SENSOR



Oh this is going to change it all, once again!
BSXinsight
There’s a beauty to the simplicity of running, because everything you need is already inside you. For the first time ever, you can now see what your body’s trying to tell you and use it to run smarter, for longer.

BSXinsight uses revolutionary technology that allows you to look inside your muscle, measuring your lactate threshold and generating personalized training zones. Stop trying to “feel” whether you’re pushing too hard or leaving too much on the trail and let the science of your body speak to you.

LACTATE THRESHOLD TRAINING: NO LONGER LIMITED TO THE PROS.

It’s all about knowing your limits - when to push those limits and when to pull back, so that ultimately you can break them. Lactate threshold training is the science of measuring your limits over time, then continually adjusting intensities so that you’re always training at the optimal level. Which moves your body’s threshold higher and higher over time, until you surpass previous limits - and break personal records.

This training method has been used by elite athletes, Olympians and professional coaches for more than forty years. For the first time ever, it’s now achievable through a simple, wearable device.

Using LED lights to “look” into your muscle, BSXinsight analyzes your unique biosignals to identify both your lactate threshold and personalized training zones. It’s as accurate as previous blood-based measurements, and it uses the same technology that experts and clinics use – with the added benefits of being wearable, ANT+ compatible and immediately actionable. Finally, you’ll always know how your body is responding to training, from the inside out.

Crazy Look, Protective Helmet, Smart Hat!


Smart Hat is a concept design to greatly increase rider safety, while also addressing some of the more inflammatory issues between cyclists, pedestrians and road users.

Smart Hat is currently a virtual product system with IP protection.

We have the skills to fully develop smart hat and we are looking for interested parties to assist us in modest funding, co-developing & branding this exciting new product together.

BACKGROUND

The safety of bicycle riders on roads is an issue for concern.
Existing approaches to minimise the risk of injury to road users range from the physical separation of the cyclist (cycling paths) through to the wearing of safety devices, such as helmets.

However, a number of technical limitations have restricted the ability of such dedicated spatial regions and wearable systems to minimise the risk and prevention of injury.

CURRENT CYCLE HELMETS

The wearing of cycle helmet for a cyclist is compulsory across all states in Australia.  Although helmets have gained usage with a number of cyclists, not all wear them.

Existing helmets afford little protection to the cyclist in a collision and are not designed to the same standard as other motor vehicle helmets.

Existing cycle helmets do not address any technical issues of integrating modern, electronic safety devices, data, or even standard road use indicators that are compulsory on all road registered vehicles, namely: illuminated front and rear turn indicators, brake lights, rear running lights, head light of appropriate brightness to other road users or rear view mirrors.

PRODUCT CONCEPT

This concept is concerned with the problem of injuries to humans and animals resulting from accidents. In particular, human injury which results from an unplanned interaction with a machine, such as a bicycle rider colliding with an automobile, pedestrian adult, pedestrian child or companion animal.

Apart from safety considerations, an ID system would allow cyclists to share responsibility when interacting with vehicles and pedestrians.

CrankPump, Simply Brilliant!


Like the wheel, sliced bread, suspension bikes, CrankPumps make you say, Duh, this will be added to every cyclist bag of tricks.

Most new bicycles have a hollow axle between the pedal cranks. That hollow space is the perfect size for a bike pump. CrankPump is a CO2 pump for Shimano Hollowtech cranks. Simply unscrew the existing plastic bolt, screw in CrankPump, and forget about it until you need it.
Bike pumps are annoying. They live on a bracket that hangs off your bike getting ugly, dirty and lost, or they live in your back pocket beating up your kidneys. Sometimes they live forgotten in your drawer at home or on the road where they fell off. The pump and other stuff needed to repair a tyre hangs off your bike, making it look ugly and un-aerodynamic. CrankPump is a simple way to keep all that stuff from ruining the clean lines of your bike.
Shimano Hollowtech cranks have a plastic bolt that covers a hollow axle. CrankPump is a CO2 pump that is a simple screw-in replacement for that plastic bolt. CrankPump lives in the axle, hidden out of the way until you need it. SIMPLE AND PREFECT.. 

Go and support.

Hauling Gear With Your Bike just Got Easier!


The Brouhaha Bike Trailer from Wisconsin-based Rollout Self-Propelled Trailers puts a bit of horsepower behind your two-wheeler. Unlike on some other electric-powered bike trailers, that horsepower doesn't make pedaling any easier; it simply adjusts for the weight of the load so that the cyclist can pedal like normal while carrying everything from a full tailgating set-up to a stand-up paddleboard.

iPhone Bumper Thong!

The RADIUS v2 is not a bumper case, nor it is a snap case, it is not your conventional iPhone 5/5s case. The profile of the case is so slim, it barely extends beyond the sleep and the volume buttons on the sides of the iPhone 5/5s. It’s very light, thin and, unlike many aluminum bumpers and cases, during our testing, we didn’t experience any signal loss. We gave a few prototypes to our teammates to use and we have a hard time gathering those back for the video shoot because they love it so much, they call it their iPhone bikini.
