Re: Repair Blocked Wind Port Feature

I know the section you're talking about John and will test there. After thinking about it for a few days I guess it does take huge pwr to overcome any zero or low pwr "time" during a 20min interval. It doesn't matter as much during a longer 3-4 hour ride. It reminds me of middle school, it...

Re: Repair Blocked Wind Port Feature

John, I appreciate you looking at my files. I ride a Specialized Roubaix. I've tested on these roads before and can usually avg 165-168W for 20 minutes. You are correct in that my routes are filled with rollers and hard to avoid. The zero pedal cadence will occur when I'm going down the rollers even...

Repair Blocked Wind Port Feature

Today was my first ride using my Newton in the rain and my pwr numbers were way low. I noticed it as soon as I left my apartment while climbing out of the parking lot. It was not raining then but humidity was 88%. After about 30min I did a 20min FTP interval and pwr was ~50W low. I then performed a ...

Re: Road Surface

Thanks Russ and all! A couple of days after I first read John's reply I figured out he was talking about tweaking the Crr on a file already downloaded before I edit or create a new profile. I played around with that and it makes a pretty big difference. On my 40 plus mile rides the road surface can ...

Re: Road Surface

Thanks for the quick reply John! I made the change last night and will get a chance to try the new Crr setting on Fri. Stuck on the trainer until then.

Thanks...Barry

Road Surface

Hello, Has anyone experimented with the road surface choices in device/set-up?? I have recently moved and my new routes are on roads that are much rougher than the old routes. In fact there is one 5mi stretch that will shake your teeth. I did some sub-threshold intervals yesterday on the stretch and...

Time Trial Mode

Hello all!

I was wondering that when doing an interval in TT mode is there a way to see cadence?? In the main screen Avg pwr, current pwr and ET can be seen but not cadence.

Thanks...Barry

Temperature and Wind Cal

Hello everyone! Lately we've been getting some pretty big temperature swings here in Charlotte, NC. I notice that when it's cold the Newton gives me higher pwr numbers. This happened over the weekend so I stopped and checked the Wind Cal and it showed positive 3mph with my hand over the wind port. I...

Re: Trainer Tire Size

Thanks for your reply Fernando! Since it's such a small difference I'll just leave it alone per your suggestion. I was playing around last night with the coefficient tab but left everything like it was. And you are correct, I had to reset the trainer power adjustments. Thankfully I wrote them down e...

Trainer Tire Size

Hello all!! I currently use a 700/25 tire on the road but I want to begin using an old tire and wheel for trainer workouts. However, my old tires are all 700/23s. Unless I overlooked it I don't see where you can change the tire size in trainer mode. Another thought is to create a separate profile fo...

Cal Ride Issue

Hello all! I downloaded the new 5.0 firmware today and had trouble doing my cal ride. Every time I tried(4 times) I would get an error message at the end of the cal ride as well as "see Isaac" on the display screen. My cal ride route was the same I've used before for the first attempt and ...

New Cal Ride??

Hello all,

I lowered my saddle a few cm and was wondering if I need to perform another cal ride or if the Newton will update the change automatically a few minutes after I start riding.

Thanks...Barry
