COVID-19 Impact

Cycling Surges Amid Pandemic, Driving Demand for Cycle Computers as Essential Tools for Fitness and Navigation

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic has in its wake the upsurge in the demand in the Cycle Computers Market since it has made cycling to be one of the ways to exercise in open spaces as an alternative to gymming. Due to the closure of fitness centers and a ban on indoor gatherings, most people had to search for a way to remain active while abiding by their social distancing rules. A large number of them only picked cycling for that purpose. The boom of cycling as a sport segment generated the demand for computer cycles when cyclists sought to trace out their rides, check up their performances, and explore new routes.

LATEST TRENDS

"Rising Demand for Smart Connectivity Drives the Integration of Advanced Features in Cycle Computers"

Another wave that has recently in the Cycle Computers Market is the encompassing advanced connectivity functionalities and smart functionalities. These days cycle computers become outdated as many of them are already Bluetooth enabled, ANT+, and Wi-Fi ready, allowing you to connect them with other cycling accessories, sensors, and most importantly, your smartphone. Digital tools are one such example as they can transmit data in real-time, automatically upload data from online platforms, provide instant notifications through the smartphone application, and integrate third-party applications to improve training analysis and social sharing.

CYCLE COMPUTERS MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on type the market can be categorized into Wired Computer, Wireless Computer, Wireless & GPS Computer

• Wired Computer: With Wired Computers, the sensors that generate data are usually located on the bike itself, and this data is transmitted to the main display unit mounted on the handlebars through physical cables. These fixed systems are generally simpler in word and operation, and they do not have the numerous functions of wireless devices, such as speed, distance, and time recording.

• Wireless Computer: Computers without Wire are the ones that can use wireless technology like ANT+ or Bluetooth to send data from sensors to a display unit which does not have any cables hooked up. Smartphones and smart computers will do all the tasks like wired systems but also will give the additional benefit of connecting to wireless networks. They are easier to install and will give a cleaner look to your handlebar.

• Wireless & GPS Computers: Wireless & GPS Computers are the up-to-date versions of all those biking computers. They not only measure and analyze your bike metrics but also include built-in GPS to provide better navigation and route planning. They record speeds, distances, and times as well as GPS-based services such as signaling directions, trajectory recording, and display traces.

By Application

Based on application the market can be categorized the market with Mountain Bike and Road Bike

• Mountain Bike: MTB cycle computers are different from basic ones and are specially tailored to be steered by mountain bike trails and rough terrain riders. These machines usually come with features like the capacity to take heavy shocks, withstanding the harshness of the weather, and the make of a tough body which compliments the requirements of mountain biking.

• Road Bike: Road bike cycling computers, in contrast, serve the entirely different purpose of providing aid to road cyclists who usually cycle on paved roads and highways. The primary objective of such computers is the precision tracking of speed, distance and time.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Popularity of Cycling To Fuel Demand for Cycle Computers"

The general trend of more and more people practising cycling activities, being used for transportation and even exercising results in a significant number of cyclists looking for cycle computers.
