The iBikeConsole is a Made for iPod accessory that mounts to a bike's stem or handlebars. It acts like a docking station for an iPod nano while also providing a weatherproof housing for the player. In addition, it combines a remote control system with a cycling computer. Cyclists can monitor their trip -- distance and speed - while listening to their favorite tunes.
The main functions of the iPod nano and cycle computer are controlled wirelessly through a pair of patented key pads which can be easily mounted on the bike's grips and operated with the thumbs. These silicon-covered key pads have large control buttons that can be activated even with gloves on.
The main iBike unit draws power from the nano so no extra battery is required. The device is designed to work with all three generations of iPod nano. Optional speakers are provided that deliver music without requiring the user to wear ear buds, which block outside noises.
