How to switch ride data (post ride) to trainer

Post by David.C.Anderson »

All,

I am curious if there is a way to change the ride data from the profile used to the trainer. Prior to the ride, I made sure that I had selected the correct trainer > set this to iAero successfully, I verified that the Trainer mode was set to On > sent this to iAero successfully. I did my ride and when I went to analyze the data I noticed that the power numbers were way off and learned that this was due to the fact that the unit did not actually switch into Trainer mode. Just another in a series of very strange things going on with this unit lately.

Thanks.
-David

2nd this request for info. I have some ride files collected on the trainer before I got around to ordering the trainer upgrade. At some point it'd be nice to convert those files to trainer rides to throw them into WKO.

I haven't tried this (yet) but I suppose that if you know your trainer power vs speed equation you can apply this to your speed in the csv file and calculate your wattage... save and you are done. I'm too cheap to get the trainer upgrade for the small amount of trainer riding I do, and this is my plan for the winter.

At present there is no way to switch the trainer profile and power curve after an indoor trainer ride.

If you're getting strange behavior try removing the battery, inserting it backwards to cause the iBike to do a hard reset, then reinsert the battery normally.

Hi,

Another trainer question. Is there a way to switch to trainer mode (and back again) on the iBike w.o going into iBike 2 software? This question is for Gen II and Gen III products.

Thanks!

Yes, in the setup menus.
