Discuss a test01 / Out on the road
Real riding.
Measured changes.
Outdoor aero testing using Notio and Aerosensor brings the assessment into the conditions you ride in.
Explore changes to your position, helmet, clothing or equipment. The aim is to compare options systematically, while considering the practical demands of your event.
Wind, traffic and changing conditions can affect a test. The route, conditions and comparisons need to work together for the results to be useful.
Talk about outdoor testing ↗02 / On the track
A controlled setting.
A clearer comparison.
In-person velodrome testing creates space to focus on your position and equipment, with the repeated riding needed to compare changes.
Experience includes London Lee Valley, Newport, Derby and Manchester, including work with British Cycling at Manchester.
The right venue and session depend on your goals, availability and track requirements. These are discussed before arranging a test.
