COREbike preview: 4iiii showcase Precision 3 and UK Factory Install process

In a period where new components have often been extremely hard to come by, powermeter manufacturer 4iiii launched their UK Factory Install process, enabling riders of Shimano cranksets, whatever the model, to send their existing left hand crank arm to Chester based partner, and UK 4iiii distributor, Pinpoint CE, for UK installation of the 4iiii powermeter.

At COREbike the 4iiii team, located in room S5, will be showcasing the Factory Instal procedure.

As a technical overview, the latest Precision 3 Powermeter offering provides up to 800hr of battery life, is only 5.5mm in height, and 9g in weight, delivering an accuracy that’s within +/-1%. The 800 hr battery life makes it one of the longest-lasting power meter on the market. At 5.5mm high, the Precision 3 is compatible with almost every bike frame on the market and at 9g isn’t going to slow you down.

As a sports technology company, 4iiii Innovations Inc, is dedicated to unlocking potential through their simplified training tools, which include power meters, heart rate monitors, and cycling trainers. Their product line is engineered and built to provide both the outdoor and indoor cycling and fitness markets with the most accurate equipment at an affordable price so that every athlete can gain the benefits of better training.

Over the past decade, 4iiii has supported some of the World’s top Male and Female athletes. Since 2016 4iiii has had a rich history in the pro peloton as the power meter of choice for Quickstep-Vinyl, Bora-Hansgrohe, Israel Premier Tech, and Michelton Scott. In 2023, they continue to support Lotto-Dstny and EF Education Tibco-SVB in reaching the top step of the podium this season. In tandem with this elite athlete sponsorship program the business has also worked to partner with bike brands, as an OEM provider. In 2022 this saw Orbea add 4iiii powermeters to bikes.
