Physical Configurations Attach the bike mount to your bike’s handebar. Place the L or S battery into port A of the TYPE-R, and lock the battery in place. Lock in the dock charger or cap into port B of the dock.
Prepare the TYPE-R Record Activity Upload Activity Upload your activities via Wi-Fi directly from the TYPE-R to the cloud from Quick Menu > Activity Log. Note that the TYPE-R does not 1) Insert batteries Starting an activity upload activities via Bluetooth or USB.
WEARING YOUR MOTION SENSORS Match your motion sensor’s color to the assigned location on your Sacrum (S) Thigh (RT and LT) body. For example, if you have assigned the orange sensor as the RT (right thigh) sensor, place the orange sensor on your right thigh. Horizontal offset will not affect readings.
Battery Status Port A Battery • Port A is located on the bottom of Touch Display the TYPE-R. The battery inserted in port A is will act as the main battery for the TYPE-R. • Charging: A red LED gauge will show on the bottom of the unit.

Motion Sensor Graph Data L and R data collected from connected motion sensors. Pedal Stroke Intelligence (PSI) Cross analysis of power, cadence, and dead spot score. PCD Map Maps power / cadence combinations that has the most dead spot scores. Higher opacity means more strokes in that combination.
FTP. LEOMO is working with world-class coaches and research centers to Thankfully, coaches know good pedaling skills continue to improve and expand MPIs to help and form when they witness it.
MOTION PERFORMANCE INDICATORS The TYPE-R comes with five motion sensors and records five types of Motion Performance Inidicators (MPIs). PELVIC TILT coming soon PELVIC TRAVEL (X,Y,Z) LEG ANGULAR RANGE PELVIC ROTATION (X,Y,Z) DEAD SPOT SCORE FOOT ANGULAR RANGE FOOT ANGULAR RANGE (Q1)
Page 23
DEAD SPOT SCORE (DSS) Summary Display motion Dead Spot Scores (DSS) pinpoint the magnitude and locations where pedaling velocities lack smoothness along the left and right pedaling cycle. - Lack of smoothness is a secondary symptom of sub-optimal pedaling motions. - Looking at the right and left DSS values provides insight to left/right movement imbalances.
Page 24
LEG ANGULAR RANGE (LEG AR) Summary Display motion Leg Angular Range measures how much the thighs move up and down while pedaling. - Looking at right and left Leg AR values provides insight to left/right movement imbalances. DETAILS The Leg Angular Range is calculated by subtracting Left Leg Angular Range the angle of the thigh at its lowest point from its highest point.
Page 25
FOOT ANGULAR RANGE (FOOT AR) Summary Display motion Foot Angular Range measures how much the heel moves up and down while pedaling. - Looking at the right and left Foot AR values 46.7°- 43.9° provides insight left/right movement imbalances. DETAILS Left Foot Angular Range The Foot Angular Range is calculated by subtracting the angle of the foot at its lowest...

FOOT ANGULAR RANGE Q1 (FOOT AR Q1) Summary Display motion Foot Angular Range (Q1) shows the foot angular range of the first quadrant of the pedaling cycle - 12 o’clock to 3 o’clock position. 0.2°- 12.5° - Looking at the right and left Foot AR (Q1) values provides insight to left/right movement imbalances.
Page 27
PELVIC TILT Summary Display motion Pelvic Tilt measures how much the pelvis is tilted upwards. 52.4° DETAILS Each cyclist has a different neutral pelvic alignment. Finding a natural pelvis position engages the core muscles and reduces lumbar spine strain. Coaches have observed that riders Pelvic Tilt with an upright Pelvic Tilt have a higher chance of back injury.
