I bought the EZ Gains to test against other set ups on my bike and it actually tested at both, velodrome and outdoors 10.9 and 10.2w respectively faster.
At Ironman Barcelona this would represent 3'40 seconds gain last weekend.
Support from the EZ Gains was amazing too. When having an issue with a piece and they got it sorted in no time too. Which I believe makes this brand amazing and worth the investment, not only on the product, but the ongoing support to customers.
I have a road bike (Trek Madone) with aero bars, so my CdA is pretty high, I was skeptical since I am not as much aero as any TT bike, but decided to try. Well, got PR in all my distances between 40 - 140km in the first ride, so in fact there are good improvement. Regarding the delivery, I live in Poland so I had to pay some extra taxes, but as expected.
Great aero socks, very comfortable and fair aero gain
I purchased the EZ Hydro Gains a couple of weeks ago for my Prologo Tri Zero saddle as I needed a solution to move my saddle forward. I originally received the wrong clamp but the lovely people at EZ Gains sent me the correct asap at no extra cost to Australia. The set up was easy and now I have the option of carrying 3 or 4 bottles on my bike. I am loving the look of my setup and looking forward to racing this year.
EZ to install with all provided video instructions. I’m just worried about the saddle connection specially if water bottles are filled kind a shaky.
Hi thanks for the review, do not use 1ltr bottles, max is 750ml also you could angle up the rear fin https://ezgains.co.uk/pages/ez-hydro-gains-fitting-instructions
It’s too bad there isn’t more adjustability back and forth!
I would like to be able to push it just an inch or so further back, since right now I feel it’s still rubbing my back as I ride! It just extends too much over the saddle for my liking.
I already had to trim off some of the mount just to be able to comfortably use the saddle.
Otherwise it’s a nice piece of kit 🙌
Also had to use loctite due to no lock washers included - only regular washers 🤷
Hey Nicolai thanks for your review, we did try split washers and grip washers but we found unless they are crushed down enough the screw would work itself loose, we opted for the most expensive black bolts and screws rather then silver screws with hex heads due to first the square screws will not round off in the locking hole and the colour, these cost 4x as much as the silver version. We do advise on the fitting instructions to check the screws every few rides and use blue lock thread, the fin part overhanging we have had to stick with this as 999/1000 athletes do need the overhang due to sitting a long way down the saddle, however you have got my head thinking and we could also design one with no overhang !! in fact I am doing this now. Thanks
I ordered an item worth 60 euro - and had to pay 70 tax and duties to fedex …
Not worth it
So a full EZ Hydro-Gains was selected with an extension plate costing around 200 euro, you selected duties not paid on the shipping, and you got charged duties ??? we have no control over government taxes in countries if you choose duties not paid.
I don't know if it's thanks to you, but I just finished IM Italy with 4:58 on the bike for 170w Np (61kg).
It's 3' better than my Pb on the bike, the bottles didn't fall despite the bad road, the system is safe.
New qualification for Kona 26
So: Thank you 🤟
Struggling to reach Bach and get my bottles out
The EZ Hydro-Gains does bring the bottles as close as possible to your rear, I would suggest using front hydration if you have back issues and just use the rear for the aero gains ?
Great product that is easy to apply as it is pre curved. Got the disc back on as I took it for Leeds IM.
EZ gains rear hydro system.. wow it works perfectly.. rock solid no bottle drop.. easy access..
thank you helping with aero gain and Podium Places.. Dean
Straightforward to fit, looks sleek and sturdy. Took me a lot longer than their video as I haven't fitted hundreds like them, but not unreasonable, maybe 1h-1h15 total including learning how to remove the cassete and disc brakes. I haven't raced on it yet so can't tell if the aero savings claimed are real or not, but there are many independent tests saying so, so not concerned on this camp.
Prodotto di ottima fattura, arrivato rispettando le tempistiche. Consigliatissimo!!
The tubes are lightweight and easy to fit. However I replaced the rear tpu tube after one ride after noticing it gradually lost pressure over a few days. The replacement tube seems fine. ?inconsistent manufacturing quality
Not had an issue with these, but pleased we replaced it and its working well.
I tested the EzGainz Hydro Gainz in my latest triathlon, and the results blew me away. It powered me to my fastest ever efforts—both a 20km and a 10-mile TT—holding a 26.5mph average speed at 239NP. For context, I weigh 86kg if you want to crunch the numbers.
The performance boost was enough to not only take the overall win but also set a new course record, finishing just 2 seconds shy of Alex Dowsett’s KOM on the final stretch back into town.
Hydro Gainz definitely delivered. 🚀
1st race with the EZ gains setup and I noticed a difference right away. 🔥🔥Blazing fast, definitely worth every bang for your buck !
I received the wrong attachment part to connect it to my saddle.
Yes we made a mistake, full apologises, we have sent out a new seat clamp part on an express to be with you in the new few working days, no return needed of the other seat clamp and if you ever change to the Fizik Transiro you have a free seat clamp, I have spoken to the staff and even though the Fizik Transiro and Tritone look similar.
Thanks Clint
The quality is medium-high. Easy enough to assemble and final weight is a bit below a true disc wheel. Main advantage for me is the possibility to repair the wheel if any damage occurs.
Brexit is not cool
I am grateful to EZ GAINS team and Clinton personally for:
1) fair and comprehensive consultation about products
2) fast and easy shipping abroad, to Phuket, directly to my house
3) real gains in speed because i compare trainings on same courses with same power
4) tririg cages is a real upgrade on all other brands, bottles don't fall even on bumpy roads!
