Jumbo-Visma appears to be testing an adjustable air pressure system. Photos of a Gravaa KAPS hubset popped up on Twitter during the Dwars door Vlaanderen on Wednesday. The kinetic air pressure system allows riders to reduce pressure in their tires on rougher sections, and then raise it once they are riding on smoother surfaces. The hubs use Bluetooth and ANT+ controls that connect to a unit on at the handlebars. Jumbo-Visma rider Edoardo Affini used the system on his Cervélo.
