iBike Aero Coast Down/4 Mile Ride Issues

Post by kb1dqh »

Hi All,

I am an excited new owner of the iBike Aero. I just went out a couple days ago and did my coast downs and 4 mile ride. The data is attached. For some reason my CRR and friction coefficient seem way too low. Also, I thought the corrected Tilt line was supposed to be straight?

I also attached an example from my ride yesterday after ‘fixing’ it per the profile in iBike 2. The tilt certainly was off by a lot per the before and after.

I thought I did everything per the instructions. Is there anything obvious here besides the fact that it looks wrong?

Thanks, Jake

Hold the iAero in your hand on the tilt screen. What is the maximum number that you can get for a tilt reading?
It is close to 100, or closer to 40?

I don't have it on me right now, but I remember doing this before and I think it's closer to 40- 99% sure.

OK, if it's closer to 40 for a max tilt, then contact John at Velocomp directly and he can walk you through how to fix it. You should be able to do it right from your house and be all set.
