Hailing from the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, the sports tech company 4iiii Innovations Inc., releases its PRECISION 3+ and PRECISION 3+ PRO power meters as factory install options for the new Shimano XTR.
This is a strategic move for 4iiii. They are “hoping it reinforces the growing importance of power measurement for mountain bikers seeking to optimize their performance”.
There’s no doubt that mountain biking is one of cycling’s most demanding disciplines. When grinding up a steep climb, you need to put out a bare minimum of power to crest the summit. When training with a power meter, riders can climb more efficiently. This leads to less fatigue, greater focus, more enjoyment, and ultimately, more downhill payoffs.
With the launch of the new Shimano XTR, 4iiii wanted to offer its “industry-leading” power solutions as a seamless Factory Install option in North America.
The service integrates a left side, or dual power meter, onto the new XTR M9200 crankset. This provides a durable and highly accurate power measurement solution.
Plus a New Look
The release also introduces a refreshed 4iiii power meter design. It features a user-friendly battery cap that is engineered to comply with new safety laws, while still providing the same reliable, accurate data you’ve come to expect from 4iiii.
“The demand for power data in mountain biking has exploded, and for good reason. This is evident in both our aftermarket demand and from OEMs seeking power meters on Shimano-equipped mountain bikes,” says Phil White, CEO of 4iiii Innovations. “Understanding your power output on the trail transforms training from guesswork to science. Our PRECISION 3+ Powermeter, which is now available as a Factory Install on the new Shimano XTR M9200, offers +/- 1% accuracy, an incredible 800 hours of battery life, and integrated Apple Find My technology. This gives mountain bikers the precision, durability, and peace of mind they need to push their limits on any trail.”
