Back in 2019, the British Cycling women’s sprint squad missed 458 training days due to lower back pain. UKSI’s Athlete Health Team was subsequently brought in to combat this. As a result, cases of back pain plummeted which helped the women’s sprint squad go on to become Olympic and World champions this year!

Heads up: On Sept 13 a new reference for cycling computer accuracy will be launched: The One by Absolute CyclingI Imagine going for the same ride not just twice or three times, but 10 times, and seeing a cumulative climbing figure that is accurate across all rides. And while you ride, your incline data will be spot on; each climb, each time. No more approximate incline numbers on your screen. No post-filtering needed to present data on your training and social ride platforms. The One is a dawn to a new day; of solid, reliable, quality data.
🗓️ Just ONE week left! We're super excited to share The One cycling computer with you. Stay tuned! #AbsoluteHappiness #Launch #TheOne #AbsoluteCycling #Countdown #OneWeekToGo
