This is a bit misleading - it depends what you are training for.
Track, TT or flat circuit racing - watts and aerodynamics are the key factors.
Watts/kg is useful for making a profile but it's a bit like BMI in that it can be a bit misleading. Aside from weight, it also only takes 5s, 1min, 5min and ftp power into account so it's not a totally comprehensive review.
