For those of you who were kind enough to listen to me droning on and on about how recumbents enhance power transfer by having a fixed seat-back to push against .... here's the next best thing for you DF addicts .....
The lightweight patent pending racing brace by PowerBack® is soon to be the hottest innovation to hit the cycling industry in years. The PowerBack® racing brace enables you to transfer more power to the pedals by offering a leverage point directly behind your lower back to push against, resulting in greater performance and optimized power efficiency. When you push back against the racing brace by PowerBack®, you immediately realize its benefits and feel the power.
