Video [Rocker Plate Testing with Saddle Pressure Mapping] It’s a long one at 30+ minutes, but I decided to leave it that way to show the process and review as much as possible, for clarity. Here are start times to major sections if you want to find something in particular. Rocker Setu…

This is great! Thank you for posting. Do you have a DIY blog post or video laying out how you built the rocker plate?

Section 6 has what you need, @GravelNut [image] Rocker Plates for Trainers Equipment My evolving Google Doc meant to cover a range of Rocker Plate Info . What is a Rocker Plate? A “Rocker Plate” is a device used to add one or more motion (degree of freedom) t…

I saw you mention this in dcrainmaker but have you done this with the eflex rocker? Also this test brings up a question on how useful the pressure mapping is during a fitting. In that if you do a fitting on a fit bike those bikes don’t rock at all so what looks good on a pressure map on a fit bike …

Sadly, our pressure mapper stopped working, and my boss is struggling with the replacement working. So I have not been able to get any more pressure testing done. I am well on board with the fixed vs motion fitting question. Ive discussed it with a few others in the fitting world. I want to do t…

I don’t doubt that’s its magnifying it, just thinking the amount of magnification may not be the same between different saddles. I so wish you were in Maryland. Too many fitters out here don’t seem to keep an open mind :slightly_frowning_face: Doing a fit on a rocker would seem to be hard as you h…

I’m sure you’ve seen some of my post here and on DCrainmaker so kind of obvious I like tech for the sake of tech in that it makes things more fun for me. But I also know its not really needed. Plus can get in the way of a useful measurement if not good enough. For example retul’s update speed (18…

I love the tech too, especially when it works :stuck_out_tongue: I’ll be really interested in your comments on feel and power from the E-Flex. I have my thoughts and experiences and have discussed it with many people in the Rocker group. I’ll hold that for now (assuming you’ve not already read i…

I have only read the big eflex thread here (the one with your review and modifications) and dcrainmaker’s review. Don’t know any rocker group so kind of want to read it but after I try it. Thinking having less biases going into trying it the first time will give a better first impression in that I’…
