Re: Firmware update 6.10
This is great, I raised the issue with 0 smoothing on the 5th of Jan but never had any acknowledgement, have just been using dynamic since but prefer to see the raw numbers at times.

Re: Powertap comparison (way off for first few minutes)
Joe, I am curious, are you removing the powerpod after each ride to download the data? When you re-attach the powerpod to the mount are you being careful to place it in exactly the same position eg push the back of the unit down until the square edge is flush and tight against the mount? In your cha...

Re: A couple of PowerPod Questions ( Dynamic Power Smoothing
Can you disable the dynamic smoothing? I have tried editing the profile to use 0 seconds smoothing and this seems to apply a 30 second averaging, I just want to see the raw data.

Re: Connecting to multiple head units
this should help Dynamic Power Smoothing When you train with power you want your power display to show smooth numbers during long intervals, yet respond instantly to power surges when you sprint. These two, seemingly contradictory demands are perfectly met by Dynamic Power Smoothing, an innovative f...

Re: Wind speed output
+1, great idea, I was thinking the same thing. Power balance could work as 50/50 would be considered neutral and then use a scale 50-100 right side as headwind and 50-100 left side as tailwind. You just ignore any number below 50 but very easy at a glance to see if wind was having a negative or posi...

Having another look and the "Ride ended where it began" actually only contributes about 30 watts average difference to the original file. The "Analyze Route" option on it's own is making the major changes and removes all the power dead spots from the ride. Have attached the TILT ...

Re: Mount iBike upside down under the stem?

Re: Attaching Magnet on Rear Disc for TT
Double sided tape will do the trick, much like the 3m tape that comes with the iBike which is used on the stem\bar mounts. There are thinner versions of these tapes as well that are just as strong, they are hard to be remove but can still be cleaned up completely without marking your wheel. I have a...

Re: At long last, the iBike Newton!
After reading Stevel's question, I re-read the Newton description, and it does appear that an ANT+ receiver is built into the Newton. If that is the case, the GT firmware must be for send only. Is that correct? If so, will the new GT firmware still sell for $99? As you can tell, I am trying to figu...
