For Immediate Release
SEATTLE, WA - RacerMate, Inc., the manufacturer of the CompuTrainer bicycle trainer/simulator and founder of the Electronic Bicycle Racing Association, celebrates the 30th anniversary this year of the introduction of the "Original Wind Load Trainer."
RacerMate unveiled the world's first bicycle wind trainer in 1976 at the Interbike Show in Anaheim, Calif., to the amusement and consternation of bicycle dealers who jokingly described it as a “treadmill for squirrels.” This invention, in fact, sparked a revolution in
indoor bike training that has grown to include magnetic trainers, fluid trainers, and computer-controlled electronic trainers led by CompuTrainer and Velotron.
RacerMate is commemorating its landmark invention with a search for "Original Wind Load Trainers" that are still in existence. One lucky owner will win a new CompuTrainer! Owners of an "Original Wind Load Trainer" have until December 15, 2006, to enter a lottery for a FREE CompuTrainer model Lab3D complete with Coaching Software, valued at $1,474.00.
The “Original Wind Load Trainer” attaches to the bicycle seat post with a swivel mount, and the wind fans rest on top of the rear tire. The beauty of this design from the
viewpoint of performance is that as speed increases so does the press-on force of the fans against the tire---thereby totally eliminating slippage even during rapid acceleration. None of the subsequent copies by companies throughout the world have incorporated this more costly design feature, and as a result, the “Original Wind Load Trainer” remains the best performing wind load trainer of all time.
*CompuTrainer 2006*
The fact that many “Original Wind Load Trainers” are still operational after 30 years also attests to the uncompromising quality and durability of all RacerMate trainers. When you purchase a RacerMate product you receive the best performance, quality, and durability
that are obtainable!
