Okay, this is the inherent issue with load curves and calibration issues. The load curves supplied by the manufacturers center around one type of person, one type of overall weight, one type of resistance - but they're all unique to each and every manufacturer. Racermate's original curve is based o...

I think I've discovered my source of confusion of what curve is correct for my trainer. I have the TREK BY CYCLOPS FLUID SQUARED, now it looks to be a rebadged Cycle-ops fluid2 however by feel the manfacturer curve is off considerably. On a well calibrated computrainer I can average 230-240 watts fo...

Well I found the manufacture power curve, though its not what I would call accurate data graph. My rides show me producing ~310 watts @ 20pmh which seems a little higher than the manf curve, if this is the case which profile should I use?

CycleOps Fluid2 has (I think) 4 referenced graphs...Is there an accurate, easy way to determine which is the one that will work best for my set-up? Thanks! Bill Please start with the manufacturer data. The other options are available in case you find your trainer deviates from the data they provide...

I'd consider myself an average cyclist, near the front in a triathlon bike proably middle of pack in a pure cycling event, but I can give you an idea. What you want to compare is Watts per Kilogram and 1,5,10,20,60 min maximum sustainable power then calculate the watts per kilogram. There is a chart...
