Market Overview:
A cyclo-computer is an onboard bicycle computer that measures and displays speed, distance, time, cadence, power, heart rate and other cycling-related metrics. It helps cyclists track their rides, analyze performance data, and improve their overall cycling experience. Common features include odometers, trip meters, speedometers, digital displays and wireless connection capabilities. They range from basic units that display speed and distance to advanced models that interface with external sensors for detailed performance insights.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing participation in cycling events and growing health awareness among people are major drivers fueling demand for cyclocomputers. According to a survey by The Sports and Fitness Industry Association, around 47.9 million Americans participated in cycling in 2019. As more people take up cycling as a sport or means of transport and exercise, the need for precise tracking of riding metrics and statistics is rising. Furthermore, technological advancements enabling real-time wireless sharing of ride data on fitness apps and social media are encouraging athletes to monitor their performance with cyclo computers for motivation and improvements. Rapid urbanization in developing nations also contributes to the rising popularity of cycling as road congestion increases demand for eco-friendly transport solutions.
The global Cyclocomputer Market Trends is estimated to be valued at US$ 542.9 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
