Re: Failed my FTP test

Alejandro:

In performing a FTP test, best to find some open road with upward gradient. So you are keeping constant power to the pedals.

Re: Calibration Check

Your calibration is spot-on, but you have a very high Crr (rolling resistance). What kind of bike are you riding, and on what kind of roads? You have PP set to Dynamic Power Smoothing. That is fine, but you can get faster response by setting it to shorter averaging. Also, if your bike computer is a...

Re: New device, calibration and FTP test

John... I kept thinking, would it be beneficial to get the upgrade keys for the PP3 L? I only will be using it on 1 bike so different profiles are not of interest. But having the ability to record full activities and have analysis from Isaac are nice to haves... also would getting a pitot tube woul...

Calibration Check

John:
Could you take a look at this 16 mile out and back and see if everything looks ok. I did a check calibration on this ride as it was my most recent. Appreciate any information you could provide.

Re: New User with a couple of questions

Thanks lorduintah, I found out about the measured wheel circumference after watching a couple video's. Appreciate the information. Did another calibration ride yesterday. Got everything dialed in. Went out for 50 mile ride today and everything is working great. Very happy with my powerpod.

Re: New User with a couple of questions

John: yes I did download the Isaac software and set all my parameters and then loaded them into the PP, as far as wheel circumference the only box I could find was grayed out and the only way I could change it was to click on the pre-loaded tire sizes. I'm running a 700 X 42 tire. The biggest 700C t...

New User with a couple of questions

1. Tire size: When I go in to set my parameters such as rider weight and bike weight, I noticed that the 700C tire only goes to 700C X 38mm. Other than going in after each ride and adjusting it to the correct tire circumference (700C X 42mm or 2218mm) is there a way to input the correct tire paramet...
