weight loss and calibration ride

Post by RGA »

Just wondering if weight loss will affect the power readings in either iDash+Power or Powerhouse and if I will need to do a calibration ride after lose x amount of pounds? If so, what is the trigger point where I would need to redo the calibration ride?

I would look at about 15 pound weight loss before I thought about another calibration ride. However, I would adjust the total weight on the setup screen as you lose weight.

The reason you would do a calibration ride is not so much because of the weight loss but you're becoming more aero.

Thanks for the feedback Fernando. I'll keep that in mind as I continue to drop the weight.
