Hi
I've successfully paired my Powerpod to a second bike and adjusted for the differing weights but the power reads too high , even reading positive watts when not pedalling .
I have now completed four rides hoping the unit would recalibrate itself but that has not happened as yet.
Any advice would be welcomed
Power when coasting on second bike?
Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
Did you create separate profiles for each bike?
Did you do an O&B calibration for each bike?
Please post .ibr ride files from each bike and we will figure out what is going on.

Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
John hello unfortunately I seem to have failed to successfully save all of my March rides on my Winter bike which makes your task futile I assume.
I have uploaded two ride files on the second bike where I see watts displayed on my head unit even when not pedalling , plus a Golden Cheetah file from a March ride which pay show power data but sadly no input compariosons I know
Each bike has a separate profile and their own speed and cadence sensors - profile 1 and profile 4 , both are road bikes.
And no , I have not carried out a O&B ride for either of the bikes/profiles
Thank you for your prompt attendance

Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
The two ride files you attached have the same speed sensor ID, and their corrected profiles are nearly identical. Are these from the same bike?
I have attached a corrected profile from your 74 mile ride.

Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
John thank you for taking the time.
I have opened Isaac and sent the new "tweeked" profile to my Powerpod and will let you know if that solves the problem.
I am assuming that is all I need do.
Yes both rides were on second bike due to my stupidity.
Todays "pre-tweeked" ride file is above.
Thanks again

Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
John hi , two ride files above were today , post your tweeking. The first goes through an early calibration which skews the data.
they showed and improvement form earlier files in that power shown whilst coasting was lower but still there.
Thanks

Re: Power when coasting on second bike?
Since there is no cadence data in your ride files I cannot tell where you were coasting.
There are a few places where, on downhills, your watts drop nearly to zero, but not exactly to zero. This is OK; any minor variation in ride position can cause this, and even when watts are not exactly zero, they are so small that they do not affect your ride stats.
