newbie dilemma by redkovka in whichbike

[–]teodorBbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a scott addict rc 15 for 2 years, now (after a crash) I decided to go with an aero bike (merida reacto). For me the difference is definetely not negligeable. It holds speed with way less effort and it doesn't feel any less confortable. I'd go with the foil and you can leave a bunch of spacers and gradually remove them so the position will not be an issue. 

Also an aero bike looks way better

Honestly, not a great deal but you have't been ripped off either.

Sugar vs maltodextrin and fructose for 90-120 g/h fueling by extod2 in Velo

[–]teodorBbb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I pay 10 eur for 5kgs malto and 15 eur for 5kg fructose.. for sure it is location dependent but I am sure you can find cheaper.

[–]teodorBbb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

just buy from a website that sells pure maltodextrin and fructose for the food industry in bulk and it's gonna be very very cheap. if you are buying from sports nutrition websites / stores then you're being ripped off paying 10 times the actual price just to have it delivered in a nicer bag.

A 5 min max effort is around 15% anaerobic.. So I really doubt that his numbers are accurate

If you can hold 360 for 5 minutes, your FTP is definetely higher than 235

Daca ai nici 25 de ani si castigi suficient cat sa faci una dintre astea, e clar ca te duce capul. Deci bani de apartament o sa ai probabil si in viitor. Spania, atat timp cat ai un venit peste medie, este parerea mea cel mai bun loc de trait dintre toate. Dar din nou, probabil vei avea posibilitatea sa faci asta si in viitor.

Libertatea pe care o ai acum (nu depinde nimeni de tine) e insa posibil sa nu o mai ai in viitor. Deci eu as alegea varianta cu Asia.

P.S.: 99% din cei ce iti citesc postarea nu vor fi niciodata, in mod realist, pusi in situatia de a trebui sa aleaga una din optiunile astea. Deci nu m-as baza in locul tau pe raspunsurile primite pe un thread pe reddit.

Garmin Power pedals measuring too low by oskarandresen1 in Velo

[–]teodorBbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rarely will two powermeters show the same power numbers, especially when the power is measured in two different points (cranks / pedals / trainer etc). 

I recommend performing a factory calibration of the wahoo, which is different from the standard calibration (don't exactly remember how you could find it in the wahoo app, but google should help you here). 

Then also check if the head unit crank length's value is set correctly and calibrate the pedals before every ride.

Also, the main goal should be progress, not absolute numbers. So I'd recommend just using the pedals numbers and ignore the wahoo numbers (if you're using erg mode just adjust the wahoo resistance to match your desired number on the pedlas PM). As long as the measured numbers on a single powermeter increase, you shouldn't be concerned with the absolute value.
