Accurate, practical and meaningful

Unlike competitor products, the RidePod® BT uses thin-walled pneumatic tubes as sensors that can detect non-magnetic vehicles (such as carbon fibre bikes) and e-scooters/bicycles travelling in tight groups.

This cycling counter efficiently gathers axle data from bike lanes and shared paths. The complimentary MTE software then processes this information using refined algorithms, delivering highly accurate and dependable results. This proprietary combination of hardware and software makes the RidePod BT a top choice for active mobility counting worldwide.

Proven Reliability

Built on the same core technology as our vehicle tube counter, the RidePod BT is as reliable, proficient and accurate. 

Remote Access Link for Bike Surveys

Download cycling data from your desk

The Remote Access Link sends information from your bike counter to any computer running MetroCount software. It is perfect for managing hard-to-access or semi-permanent sites, saving time surveying multiple locations, diagnosing sensor issues during active surveys and improving staff safety.
