Interbike 2012 - day 3
Written by: Herbert Krabel
Added: Wed Sep 19 2012
The first inside day of the 2012 Interbike seemed to be dominated by bike fitting and power measuring conversations, but clearly there was much more going on than that.
The recent news of Specialized acquiring Retul was followed up today with the announcement that Dorel (Cannondale's parent company) purchased the Guru dynamic bike fitting system and will make it soon available to its dealers as well as to dealers not part of its IBD chain. This system uses the F.I.S.T. protocol that Slowtwitchers are pretty familiar with.
Meanwhile a few steps away bike fits in the CycloLogic booth took place under the careful guidance of Paraic McGlynn.
But as we said before, that is not all we saw.
