Team SpiderTech p/b C10 will be conducting off-season testing at the facility before heading to Europe in early January. The SpiderTech PowerWatts cycling studio is also used for testing hockey players and other amateur athletes who are interested in measuring their cycling abilities against professional cyclist standards.
Along with taking some photos we caught up with Powerwatts co-owners Saldanha and Rozdilski and the main man behind SpiderTech powered by C10, Steve Bauer, for his take on the new studio and what lies ahead for the team in 2012.
