Check new profile please

Post by spangelsaregreat »

Hi,

Set up a new profile for my Giant Propel.

Initial set up was set as follows:-

Rider weight 92kg
Bike and kit weight 10.2kg
Arms bent riding on hoods
Good Asphalt
700x25 tubeless tyres (set to tubular and premium in set up)
PowerPod mounted on the bars

I think the Power is reading a bit high compared to my other bike (a non aero disc road bike). Looking at the profiles my other bike has a Aero of 0.568 and Windscaling of 1.544. The Propel is showing Aero of 0.755 and Windscaling of 2.067.

Can you check the profile and see if it needs an edit. About mid way through the ride I noticed the PP had rotated a bit so I pushed it back to its level position.

Regards

Everything is OK.

When wind scaling goes up, aero goes up too. Wind scaling/aero can be different from bike to bike.
