FLO Cycling - TrainerRoad Podcast from Kona Hawaii

When we were in Hawaii, we had the opportunity to sit down with the guys at TrainerRoad for a interview. We spoke in depth about wheels, aerodynamics, gear selection, and many other cool topics. Below we've posted a link to the interview. If you have a minute, give it a listen.

We hope you enjoy the interview. If you have any questions or comments about the interview, we'd love to hear them below.
Take care,
Chris

Hi Guys, I listened to the trainerroad podcast and I was wondering. Can I use an iPhone strapped to then bike frame, with an app like VibSensor that uses the accelerometer to see the up down fibration of the frame? I can then take a typical 20 meters of road and see the vibration with different tyre pressures. I'll inflate it to higher pressure and deflate till the vibration decrease significantly. This will be the best pressure for the type of road to get good roll resistance.
Antoine Rocher,
That's definitely an interesting idea. To be 100% honest with you, I don't know exactly how rolling resistance would relate to vibration. Impedance is definitely part of the equation, but there is more that goes into it than that. To see if there is a correlation, you would need to use a known method for measuring rolling resistance (eg. a roller test), and compare that to your vibration test to see if there is a link.
I hope that makes sense.
Chris
