The cycling computer features GNSS technology for extended battery life and accurate tracking, enhancing cycling with cutting-edge features.

MAX-M10

u-blox, a positioning and wireless communication technology provider, has announced that Absolute Cycling has selected its MAX-M10S advanced GNSS receiver for its new cycling computer, The One. The MAX-M10S is essential for maintaining long battery life for extended rides. Through integration with Absolute Cycling’s algorithms, it provides consistent tracking accuracy, even in challenging environments like dense forests and urban high-rises.

The One cycling computer offers cyclists precise positioning and elevation data, an easy-to-use interface, and minimal distractions, allowing riders to focus on their experience. This device is developed in response to increasing demands for cycling computers. It incorporates trends like the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and machine learning through sensor fusion algorithms for enhanced real-time data accuracy.

Designed for low power consumption and maximum position availability, the u-blox MAX-M10S supports all GNSS concurrently, ensuring efficient performance without excessive battery use. Cyclists can use The One for over 12 hours on a single charge. The module’s compatibility with small antennas makes the device compact and lightweight.

“Existing cycling computers are often inaccurate and complicated, leading to a lacklustre rider

experience. Additionally, their interfaces are complicated to use, and their battery life is too short for extended rides, which can interrupt longer journeys and degrade the overall user experience,” said Oreste Concepito, Head of Product Strategy, Business Unit Positioning at u-blox. “Integrating the MAX-M10S into The One computer will ensure cyclists get a device that enhances their riding experience with precise and reliable GPS positioning.”

Harm Giesen from Absolute Cycling added: “u-blox, and its distribution partner Batenburg Applied Technologies in the Netherlands, is a reliable partner that provides excellent performance and support, with high value for money. Having a technically certified and proactive distributor in our home country who delves into the product and its application helped us reach the high standards we were looking for in our cycling computer. The MAX M10S will make The One an indispensable tool for cyclists aiming to maximise their outdoor adventures.”
