# Lightweight Cycling Power Meters The 'AroFly' Tracks Tire Pressure to Accurately Ascertain Speed By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2018-07-31 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightweight-cycling-power-meter References: [road.cc](https://road.cc/content/review/227916-arofly-power-meter) & [aroflybike](https://www.aroflybike.com/) The AroFly is an innovative new cycling power meter that is designed to offer precise, sensor-driven power-detection technologies in a package that is set to be the smallest available in the consumer cycling market. This particular cycling power meter works by tracking your bicycle tires' air pressure, and using its embedded accelerometer to keep tabs on the rate of rotation of the wheels. Those pieces of data enable it to measure speed, the figures for which are then seamlessly conveyed to the [handlebar-mounted](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-handlebar) A-Plus Meter cycling computer for easy display. What's more, power data can also be displayed alongside heart rate, should the user opt for the optional heart rate-tracking wristband or other heart-tracking monitor. Accurate in its readings and exceptionally [compact](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancore-data-plate), the AroFly is an excellent cycling power meter for novice and mid-range riders who don't want to spend four figures on a speed-tracking gadget. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Compact Cycling Power Meters:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating even smaller and more accurate cycling power meters for consumers. - **Sensor-driven Power Detection:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing advanced sensor technologies for precise power detection in various industries. - **Integration of Power and Health Tracking:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in combining power tracking with other health monitoring features, creating all-in-one fitness devices. ### Who This Affects Most - **Sports Technology:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the sports technology industry to create more compact and accurate cycling power meters. - **Wearable Technology:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the wearable technology industry by developing advanced sensor technologies for power detection in various applications. - **Fitness and Wellness:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fitness and wellness industry by integrating power tracking with other health monitoring features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Running Power Meters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/running-power-meter.md) - [Mountain Bike Brake Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brake-monitor.md) - [Sensor Battery Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mysensor.md) - [Real-Time Tire Pressure Adjusters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scope-atmoz-system.md) - [Bike-Mounted Air Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bikemounted-air-monitor.md) - [Smart Inflation Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/x8-apex.md) - [Realistic Indoor Cyclist Trainers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cycplus-t2.md) - [Automated Pocket-Sized Air Pumps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-air-pump.md) - [Cycling Performance Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyclehud.md)
