AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

Looks like it's fixed now.

Was having issues uploading today's ride file so I logged out of NT and cannot seem to log back in (getting a "Couldn't connect to server" message). If know issue, I can wait til server gets back but just want to make sure problem is not on my end.

Thanks!

Mainly using strava but open to gettin otehr programs.

are these merged file compatible with trainingpeaks?

I am not and am curious to find out the steps (I have an Iphone 4).

Thanks!

Let me just start by saying, thank you for being very patient with me and my questions. My current set up (tilt, wind, cal etc.) are all following the set up steps that came with the Newton and I not knowing what determines riding tilt, I am admittedly lost as to how it came about. For reference, my...

You might want to consider the following very slight changes. 1) Leaving your CdA the same, lower your wind scaling from .9 to .85 2) Lower your Crr to .0051 AND lower your Riding tilt to -.3. I'm inclined to think you don't push the front of the bike down -.8 when you only weigh 138lb. These two c...

Well on old ibike I was working with 210-220 FTP. To give you an idea (or to add to the confusion) on 6/3 I was doing hill intervals on the same climb I did yesterday and was going all out averaging about 220 watts. Yesterday the average was around 270 watts for the same climb. In retrospect, maybe ...

I did mean by coasting and I do take your point to heart about taking the new norm and moving on. I was just trying to make sure that nothing was wrong with my newton unit as I would have thought that numbers from Gen 3 to Newton would be similar. As long as there are no flags of defective unit from...

Ability to look up/delete specific ride files would be cool.

On intervals the ability to show cadence along with HR, power and target power.

Coast down window is under Set up/User, keep pressing down till you see coast. Don't press the middle button but try to see what your power numbers look like when not pedaling. My experience with coast down window and not coasting is that I'm usually at +/- 20 watts on various speeds/terrain but am ...

Coast downs have to be downloaded as a special kind of ride. I recommend you don't even bother with coastdowns. If you switch profiles mid ride the Newton automatically starts a new ride and it will have trouble with tilt for a few minutes. If you want to switch profiles, stop, reset the ride by ho...

Curious as to what numbers are you seeing if you just go to coast down window and not pedal?

It's been posted that ibike folk will have some clever way of adding (importing?) gps info with newton.

Information may not be ready for public consumption yet but I figured I'd put a post so it's easier to track down once information becomes available.

Thanks RacerFern. The shorter rides I had originally attacehd were actually coast downs not cal rides (hence the small files). Before today's ride I downloaded 3 profiles on to newton to test: - Profile 1 - 3 mile cal ride tweaked with Analyzed calibration - Profile 2 - 3 mile cal ride that used dow...

Also a note on wind scaling, seems like that 2.200 is the default number I get when I create a Quick start profile.

Is that expected?

Sorry Racerfern but 3 mile calride is usable as what? By doing a few adjustments in analyze calibration I was able to make noticeable change to be near the middle but what does that tell me (since the resulting power numbers in the 3 mile ride appear high to me). I guess I am used to doing a cal rid...

I meant to put a smiley face in there.

I had an excellent ride last Saturday and would just like to see how my training/numbers stack up (otherwise all I have to go with is anecdoctal evidence).

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like my thread's been hijacked a little.

Any feedback on the files I posted?

several files had been zipped into one file (a few coast downs, the cal ride and the big ride). I'm attaching as separate files

Since I did a hard reset the 75 mile ride will say it's from 6/5

I'm really confused as to whether I need to do coast downs with my cal ride and how to best test if my finalized cal ride is really accurate. Please note that I've had the ibike for a few years now so I thought I was fairly familiar with the whole st up process. My profile from these is drastically ...

but how do I save that cal ride profile (just in case I need to re-import it later on)?

Do I still need to do coast downs after cal ride? The instructional video did not mention it so I just did a cal ride today. There does not seem to be any way to download the calibrated profile from my newton to my computer (unless I have a few coast downs to go along with it so it can do a complete...

Hopefully I'm not too far down the backlog list

I think your order shipped today

Now you have me constantly checking in with our office manager for deliveries . Patience is a virtue (that I do not have...)

Are we supposed to get an email once our ibike ships out?

Hopefully I'm not too far down the backlog list

No garmin here (no plans either). Hoping I will have something compatible with whatever you guys come up with.

Can any info be shared on the free GPS capability yet?

Curious to see if it's related to one's smart phone (as I am in the market for a new one and want to amke sure it that's the case, that I get a compatible one).

Glad to see I don't seem to be the only one checking this forum every 5 minutes hoping for the announcement that Newtons have shipped.

Understand Ibike team is doing everything they can.

Excitement and anticipation continues to grow.

Awesome.

Can't wait to get mine
