Hi -

I've been searching around for this answer. Maybe someone here knows...

iBike software vers 4.0.4. I see a "Gravity" reading of "-1268" - that's minus 1_2_6_8. It seems high (low). What is that indicating?

I guess what I really don't know is what "Gravity" readings represent and what is it telling me.

I'd appreciate some insight.

Gravity is the watts used to fight when you work against gravity (that is, you climb a hill), or the watts that gravity assists you with when descending a hill. When descending a hill at high speed, gravity is providing you the equivalent of 1268W. That is, this is the amount of power you would need to apply on a level road, to travel at your current speed.
