MTB route review. High watts
Posted: Sun May 10, 2020 10:02 am
Hello:
Attached path file in mtb to check if everything is correct. Before calibrating I put a cda of 0.450 and a crr 0.0080, I have seen that they are values that are usually put for mtb. It seems to me that it gives high watts in descents if you are pedaling and in other occasions in general I appreciate that it gives high watts, I have doubts; So I want you to review it.
The data is as follows:
MTB bike weight: 12,800 kilograms
Rider weight: 68,500 kilograms
Cyclist height: 178 centimeters
Powerpod installed on handlebar
29'x2.25 tires with a pressure of 1.8 bar
Another question I have. How does powerpod detect if you are going through an area with a lot of loose stone or mud, where you need to apply more force to advance and therefore more watts.
Thanks and best regards
