Re: Wind offset question
The temperature stability of the wind sensor is much better in the Gen III so it should not be a major crisis if you forget to do a wind offset. On my Gen III I often do not perform a wind offset; I put the iBike on my bike, push the center button to pair, and ride.

Re: Calibration ride/coast down with DFPM
You're correct that if you are using your iAero on a bike without your PT, just set Pin to "None" and your iAero will work just fine. Set Cad to Find (or Paird) to get your sensor working. Since you are using a disc wheel your aerodynamic drag may be different so you should do a new set of...

Re: power disappears
The reason for your problem is that there is an error in your profile. Specifically, in the "advanced" tab in the edit profiles function, you'll see your bike + rider weight listed as zero. This causes an infinite Crr. I don't know why this problem happens in iBike 3 but I will try to find...

Re: est cDA not working?
The problem is that your iAero has been mistakenly programmed as an iPro. The iAero does not have an estimated CdA function.
Please return your unit to us and we will correct this problem immediately.

Here's what is going on. In your cal ride both your wind scaling factor and your riding tilt are determined. Riding tilt is the correction factor that accounts for the effects of your body's weight distribution causing changes to the tilt calibration of your iBike. A correct riding tilt measurement ...

You'll need either the "iPro G" or "iAero G". Either product has everything you need to work with your new Garmin system.
The only iBikes we sell from the iBike Store are Gen III units.

Re: Intervals on iPro
We thought the pre-programmed intervals would be of interest to most iPro owners but we're certainly not trying to take away a prior feature.
Look for a firmware update in the near future that will give the option for the standardized intervals or the custom programming of intervals.

Re: Ibike 3 reinstalation problem
You get that message because your iBike 3 software is still installed, so the reinstallation does nothing.
Launch iBike 3 and go to Help/About iBike... Make sure you have version 3 or higher.

Re: Second ride...some disappointing results. Ideas?
Your Crr is too high; for asphalt roads it should be around 0.004, not the 0.008 in your ride. Tweak your Crr to 0.004 in iB3 and you'll see the results you expected. You can see where rain filled your wind sensor port between minutes 47 and 57. You can remove the iBike blow the wind out of the port...

Re: Cadence data not imported by iBike 3 for Windows
This is not an iBike 3 issue. If you did not see cadence during your ride then your cadence sensor either was not operating properly or wasn't paired to your iPro. Make sure your cadence mount is set up properly and that your cadence mount is paired. The iPro will switch automatically from CAL to RP...

Re: Until I do an accurate calibration...
If you have an iSport or iPro, use the Est CdA function to give you a good approximation of your aero drag, and use 0.006 for a good estimate of Crr (rolling resistance). Then, do the Cal Ride only, then get out and ride! After you do your coast downs you can use the newer profile with your older ri...

Re: what about water/rain?
The Gen III design has design changes to help prevent water from entering the mount/battery area.
If water gets in the wind port simply remove the iBike, blow out the water, then resume.
