I’m serious when I say that I largely keep up with the latest bike technology through the BSNYC blog as much as by Bike Radar/Rumor/whathave you.
Recently BS related how he feared that the latest “technology” had reached the outermost limits of absurdity and that he’d no longer have anything to make fun of; in today’s post he comes across something that manages to do that. https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/zipp-reveals-first-ever-smart-wheels-with-integrated-live-tyre-pressure-sensors-but-its-also-snuck-out-an-even-more-interesting-product/ Apparently this apparatus builds an electric tire pressure sensing system in the rim itself, comes with a proprietary tire courtesy of Goodyear, and has a GUI integrated with a suite of other digital measuring systems all compatible with your iPhone. How is this bicycling? I want to be open minded. Is there any real-world utility for this sort of complication?
