Things to know about Wahoo

Wahoo was founded in Atlanta in 2009, founder Chip Hawkins had decided that the time was right to finally make the connection between digitalization and sports. In order to create a successful connection, athletes needed intelligent solutions that allowed them to collect training data, but also to evaluate, edit and share those on their smartphones. Everyone, he thought, should be able to use those devices without needing a degree in computer science, so simple solutions and intuitive usability were at the top of his wish list. This plan has evolved into a wide range of bike trainers, trainer accessories and GPS tracking systems. As a result, the U.S. company today successfully connects bike training and digital solutions.

For many bikers, especially ambitious road cyclists, it is no longer enough to know how long and how far their training rides are. Every training lap on the bike is meticulously recorded and evaluated, because this is the only way to efficiently improve performance. By the way, Wahoo’s fan base among amateur athletes and bike professionals is affectionately dubbed the "Wahooligans".
