Re: Change Cm in Device

OK. Good work John, as usual. Thanks. Aside: regarding Cm and Powerstroke. General principles do claim that rider motion that does not translate into forward motion is a loss of energy between the pedal and the road (which approximates Cm). If so, would not PowerStroke's "Wasted Watts" val...

Re: Change Cm in Device

For clarity, not to pick: Cm as a user variable has come up in my expierence as least 2 times before. I believe one was messaging with Trevor when iBike wasn't Newton. Cm doesn't matter that much to me even though on my recumbent quad with a crank, N360 mid-drive and a a geared underdrive Cm may 1.1...

Re: Change Cm in Device

Hey John Promises, promises. For years velcomp folk have said they will make Cm "mechanical efficiency" a simple user entry. I have several drivetrains, different profiles, none of which are 98%. Double mid-drive is ...don't laugh... It would be superior for Newton/Issac to use my user ent...

Re: Auto Trip Reset: Feature or Failure?

Auto reset after 4 hours is almost always more reliable than me rembering.
BUT NOT ALWAYS!
I do long multi-day trips with stops that can go over the 4 hour range.
A one-ride recording is best.
Could you include a switch for this feature in "user"?

Isaac 1.0.9 is downloaded and working.
Off I go for a Calibration ride and coast downs.

This Newton system is rather nice to use.
Calibration ride with 11 coastdowns gives clean results.
Fitness Test is next.

Re: Cal Ride and Coast Downs

OK, these are the same instructions from which I made a check list and followed. Not erasing data before the CalRide/Coast-downs is OK. The roads were straight without hills. Wind calm. no changes during cal. Weather heavy overcast, no change during ride, showers during the very last coast-down. My ...
