This is a problem with macOS and Isaac. If you have an Intel Mac I think there is a fix, but I will have to check it before providing a workaround.

Re: new Trek Speed Concept Blendr Duo Base and Computer Mount and Device Mount Location

The under-bar mount we recommend is very small, and I find it difficult to believe it will measurably affect your overall aero efficiency. It's hard to see how adding a GoPro helmet mount to the bottom of the basebar wouldn't cause air to detach, or at least not flow the way Trek intended. In eithe...

Re: new Trek Speed Concept Blendr Duo Base and Computer Mount and Device Mount Location

Thanks. Conceptually there will be some flex in a standard road bike bar/stem, just as there is some flex in the base and bars on a TT bike. Both configurations put rider weight on the bars through a lever. There are a lot of factors that will determine how much the bar/stem of either bike will fle...

Is there a way to tell if the level of vibration is problematic? I have been using a very similar setup (one one short metal extension from the Bontrager mount instead of two) on my Speed Concept. The bar setup on the new Speed Concept is very rigid. Nothing is moving as far as I can tell. I would ...

Re: My PowerPod is not resonding, nothing.

Where the file cuts-off around mile 16.5 is where your PP lost its "brains". Up until this point everything is fine. The reason for the zero mile header is because the header is recorded at the end of a normal ride which, in your case, never happened. This is a peculiar bug that happens ve...

Re: PowerPod V5 - Blocked Port

Your commute is basically on a slight downhill. Your 8/3 ride shows 195W avg, at a speed of 20.6 mph, and your HR is 124. The 8/4 commute is much lower in watts, but your speed is lower and your HR is lower. So, I think your files are OK Your 33 mile 8/3 ride has widely varying terrain, including lo...

Re: No PowerStroke today

Cadence data is missing from your 8/4 file; this is why you have no PS information.

I don't know why your cadence data is missing, but I suggest a battery replacement for your cadence sensor, and a hard reset for your unit.

Re: PowerPod V5 - Blocked Port

I looked at your ride files and can't explain what happened.

It appears that your PP was not calculating things properly.

Please do a hard reset of your unit. If you see this problem after that please let me know.

It sounds like your unit locked-up during the ride. This is a mysterious bug that we are aware of that, fortunately, happens very very rarely. A hard reset fixes the problem (but it wipes out the distance of the ride). It's OK to do a hard reset during the ride, but hopefully this won't be necessary...

Your profile has 2 problems: 1) your CdA is incorrect; the ride file shows 0.465 but your TT CdA is 0.25. This will cause watts to be way too high 2) Your wind scaling is slightly low. This will cause watts to be slightly low Both are corrected in the attached profile. Your AP is set to profile 4; t...
