CST Aero and CST Fric number check
Posted: Thu Apr 07, 2011 9:39 pm
I've been trying to get things calibrated on my iSport so I could be confident in the numbers.
After much study, reading of posts, and e-mails to the iBike guys I think I got it.
Here's the numbers.
male
6'
160
total weight 185
ride on hoods
700x23 tires
mount is solid
all calibrations are done well.
I did a cal ride today in very little wind. 3.6 or so miles on slightly rolling terrain.
CST Aero .272
CST Fric 9.467
Fric seems high but please tell me this is ok...I'm sick of doing cal rides.
My FTP has gone from 188 to 220 over the last 2 months and I'm not sure it's legit.
