Question on Cal Ride
Posted: Wed Jul 05, 2017 2:18 am
I have the IBike Newton with 5.15 firmware and SRM (or PowerTap) as DFPM.
I have a somewhat specific use for the data provided by my IBike and thus, my main concern is the reliability of the wind speed and barometric data. The data has been good and reliable - no problems there. I was just wondering about the CalRide and differences in accuracy levels - if I only use the wind speed and barometric data collected by the IBike from the raw data - do I need to calibrate the system before every ride? Moreover, are the wind speed measurement or barometric data accuracies affected/improved by the Cal Ride? I understand that for the barometric data the IBike needs to be acclimatized for correct barometric data.
Best regards,
Anton
