Calibration and few other questions
Posted: Sat May 12, 2018 7:18 am
I moved my powerpod to a new bike, did an out and back calibration and than had a race the day after.
The powerpod is attached to a Trek Emonda road bike, I'm 192cm and just under 100kg
How does the quality of the calibration look ?
The activity file contains a 63km race and a easy warm up with two sprints before. I feel that the power number
I was seeing are on the higher side, is there anything to indicate that it is the case ?
(For the race part is was avg 292w and NP of 357w for around 1 hours and 40 minutes)
This was my first race and I was putting down a lot of power but still these number look just a little bit high
One extra question, I normally ride on the hoods and used that setting when I did the calibration ride.
When I'm riding and change to hoods with bent elbows to be more aerodynamic (or the drops) will the powerpod show power number that is higher than it should be ?
