To offer state of the art timing services, R-bies decided to use the MYLAPS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mylaps.com\/timing-solutions-active\/bibtag\/\">BibTag technology.<\/a> BibTag is the standard timing system for mass events with affordable chips and the highest read-rates in the industry. This timing system was used last month at the Chicago Marathon, where Kenyan Kelvin Kiptum broke the world record. The MYLAPS ThinTag is 75% thinner than regular tags, which results in less waste and less shipment space, which has a positive impact on lower carbon emissions.<\/p>\n<h5>Partnership with global leader in sports timing<\/h5>\n<p>\u2018We are thrilled to work together with the global leader in sports timing\u2019, says Yu Korosaki, President at R-bies. \u2018We want to use a rock-solid timing system that has the best read rates for all our events.
