Many of you asked us: “Why is the 3DMS better than Starlane or Alfano… laptimers?”
And the list is huge! That’s why we wrote this article.

3DMS versus its competitors

We compared here the 3DMS with 3 other GPS laptimers of the same category (based on their use and price).

Much more expensive and hard to use data acquisitions (as 2D) are not compared with the 3DMS because they aim only professional riders.
