Climbing Accuracy Question
Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2017 1:43 pm
Hi,
I have done quite a few Out and Back rides with velocomp adjusting my profile so that all appears fine.
When riding on flats the watts seem comparable to other PM i've ridden with/trainer/wattbike, etc.
However when I go up hills the number seem to jump quite quickly and well over my FTP for and hold for quite a while which I would struggle with on a flat.
I know there is an affect on power by gradient and when I run the file through WKO4 elevation adjusted power charts the numbers seem OK but jist wondering other experiences?
Thanks
Lee
