I'm not saying you did, just that the 5min blowout thing is confusing to a lot of riders and will introduce variability akin to a thousand Stages.

Yeah, this was my point exactly. Like @Smallfurry I do 1 minute efforts to try and flush the legs out - if I did a 20 min test straight off the result be way too high to be useful for pacing a 25'.
Although saying that, pacing off an FTP only isn't a great strategy.

hippy
Who said max? I didn't say max.
Previously I've done 105-120% FTP depending on what stage of the block it was done.
As for standardisation, that's up to the rider, just like all the other test variables.
Bloody rookies, coming in here, complaining about test consistency to a bunch of sportive riders armed with Stages...
