GRIPONE ISIDE 2

Traction control system for motorcycles

Traction control
Extremely fast predictive traction control function to keep under control the spinning of rear tyre. You can ride safe and fast
Anti wheelie control
Anti wheelie function supported by the inertial platform to accelerate as much you can and keep the front wheel just few centimeters off the ground
Inertial platform
It includes a state of art inertial platform to estimate the tyre load and grip level in every condition you are

GRIPONE ISIDE2 is the last generation of motorcycle traction control systems designed and produced by GUBELLINI. It is a extremely fast traction control and reliable anti wheelie control. The installation is extremely easy because the system is completely Plug&Play. You don’t need brackets or cut wires, just plug in and go.

GRIPONE IMU CAN

Professional inertial platform for motorcycles

For MOTORSPORT
GRIPONE IMU CAN is an advanced tool that supply an extremely accurate signal of roll angle. Typically the data acquisition ECUs include 3-axis accelerometer sensor but they do not supply an appropriate the calculation of roll angle. This value is very sensitive to the features and quality of sensors used to obtain it. IMU CAN guarantees an high precision into the determination of roll angle
For MANUFACTURERS
Motorcycle manufacturers, when they want to equip their vehicles with control systems, such as traction control or anti wheelie control, can rely on large external suppliers (who sell a “closed box” product at extremely high costs) or they can get the whole package, simply by integrating GRIPONE IMU CAN as external manager (via CAN bus) of the control strategies. The great advantage of this solution (in addition to the extremely reduced price) is that of having complete management of the strategies and above all having ownership of them
For ELECTRIC BIKES
Electric motorcycles have an exceptionally linear power delivery, but they are still two-wheeled vehicles that face the limits of tire grip. By integrating GRIPONE IMU CAN as an external operator (via CAN bus), vehicle control strategies can be easily integrated to increase safety. IMU CAN, in addition to providing the roll angle and the pitch angle, also estabilish the corrections necessary to restore normal driving conditions. Inside the thinking heart, in fact, it includes different strategies such as the traction control, the anti-wheelie and engine brake control.

GRIPONE IMU CAN is the new inertial platform designed specifically for use on motorcycles with traditional or electric engine, for sports or road use. Inside it has two 3-axial accelerometers ,one 3-axial gyroscope and 3-axial compass , thanks to which it is able to detect the dynamic position of the vehicle. A complex algorithm processes the data, comes from the sensors, to calculate the roll angle, the pitch angle, eliminating completely the typical drift effects of these devices. All data are made available for other devices via CAN bus communication.

GRIPONE E-SUSPENSION

Trasform your front fork into an active electronic suspension

For MOTORSPORT
GRIPONE E-SUSPENSION, through two servo motors (controlled by an inertial platform) acts directly on the external adjustments of the fork. The inertial platform detects the circumstances in which special adjustments need to be made and activates the servo motors to vary the fork calibration. The adjusters of the fork are modified in real time, so as to have the best hydraulic response in every situation.
For MANUFACTURERS
The real core of this device is the IMU (inertial measurement unit), able to detect the vehicle dynamic state and command the actuators (in this case 2 servo motors). In order to develop a specific application, the IMU can be thought as main brain able to interact with many different device or actuators.
The IMU can communicate with other device by dedicated line (like H-bridge for servo motor, DC motor or solenoid) or via CAN bus. The limitation is only thinking to what kind of application we need.

Suspension adjustments are always a compromise between different needs. Braking support, sensitivity, reaction speed and stability are just some of the rider’s primary needs. If you want more support, you lose sensitivity. If you want stability you lose speed of reaction, and so on. Until now, the rider has had to decide what to sacrifice to get something in return.

Thanks to GRIPONE E-SUSPENSION, this problem no longer exists. GRIPONE E-SUSPENSION is an electronic servo-assisted system that optimizes the front forks of your motorcycle in real time, transforming them into a real active electronic suspension.

GRIPONE WINGLETS

Carbon fiber wings for street motorcycles

DOWNFORCE
The downforce generated by the wings varies with the square of the speed. This means that the effect is greater as greater is the speed. However, the load towards ground is already perceptible at relatively low speeds (100kmh)
TURNING
Turning: the tendency of the bike to “turn” (and therefore to follow the ideal trajectory) depends even on the grip of the front wheel. The downforce increases the load towards the asphalt and, consequently, the tendency of the front wheel to remain on the ideal line
STABILITY
Stability: the wings generate a stabilizing action, especially in the fast corners where the front end of the bike does not have a good support. Moreover, in all situations where the bike shakes, the wings generate a contrasting action, keeping the bike steadier.

3D INTELLIGENCE

The 3D INTELLIGENCE technology enables our system to process the accelerations along three axes (X, Y, Z) and activate all the complex processes that make GRIPONE the best system. Throught the acceleration, the speed of the wheels and their gradients, the algoritm estimate a safe target (ie, a slip limit beyond which it is necessary to reduce the power).

3D-INTELLIGENCE is the heart of the GRIPONE systems. The general traction control systems activate a proportional power reduction when the sliding or the wheelie is over a certain value (defined by the user). With GRIPONE systems instead matters are a bit more elaborate!

Why do you need a motorcycle traction control system?

Diego Gubellini is the soul of GRIPONE, the creator and the designer. GUBELLINI s.a.s.
(the company of which is the leader) owns GRIPONE brand and its products.

Diego is formed through 20 years of working as chief engineer on racetrack, alongside the best riders of 500cc and MotoGP classes. Among the most important collaborations of Diego Gubellini there are Daijiro Kato, Sete Gibernau, Alex Barros, Shynia Nakano, Alex De Angelis, Marco Melandri, Colin Edwards, Hiroshi Aoyama, Michele Pirro, Scott Redding, Stefan Bradl and Franco Morbidelli.

Through the experience gained on the race has been able to perfect the GRIPONE until it becomes a highly advanced system between the traction control devices.
