The UCI says bike computers are big enough, moves to impose size limit to protect ‘cognitive load’ of riders

Along with appealing the Belgian courts’ decision in the SRAM/maximum gear restriction case, the UCI announced that it will limit the size of bike computers allowed during professional races and prohibit the use of inside front jersey pockets as new safety measures.

The governing body announced an update to rule 1.3.006 bis covering onboard technology, adding a size limit of 126mm x 71 mm for bike computers starting on January 1, 2028.
