iBike Dash turns iPhone into cycling computer


Cycling computers are always useful to keep up the distance you traveled on your bike. The iBike Dash turns your iPhone into such a device and adds some more useful functions. The iBike Dash is made of a water- and dustproof holder that can be attached to the handlebars. It has a built-in speed measuring chip, so the iPhone can display the speed with the help of an app from the appstore. The iPhones gps-functionality is used to display the traveled route. The iBike Dash is also compatible with the iPod touch, but in that case the gps-functionality is missing. The basic version of the iBike Dash costs $200, for more info and more pictures take a look at their website.

  18. Fixing my Iphone on my bike would end badly. I'd be too busy playing Angry Birds or something and get smoked by a car.
