EZ Gains Dominates Rear Hydration at IRONMAN Championships Nice

 

The Nice course is tough, fast and unforgiving, and the aero advantages soon add up over 180 km.

That’s why the pro field and a huge portion of age-groupers are choosing EZ Hydro-Gains: a rear hydration system engineered for secure retention, easy access and proven aerodynamic speed.

Why EZ Hydro-Gains?

The facts are simple: positioning your hydration correctly behind the saddle can reduce drag and save meaningful time on race day. EZ Hydro-Gains is purpose-built to place one or two bottles in the fastest zone, close to the rider, stable over rough roads, and easy to reach without breaking aero.

Real Gains Over Real Distance

Over an 80 km segment of an IRONMAN race, athletes can see up to 4 minutes saved with an optimally positioned rear hydration setup.

 

Across the full bike leg in Nice, those seconds compound, especially when you stay aero and keep fuelling simple.

Designed, Tested and Protected

EZ Hydro-Gains was developed through extensive wind-tunnel and real-world testing to balance aerodynamic performance, retention, and usability.

We’ve invested heavily in creating (and safeguarding) this design so athletes can trust it on their biggest race days.
