  • Six weeks of sweet spot and I'm up from 318w to 349w. Down to 60kg too.

    TR defo overestimates power by at least 50w, but I'm testing on the same bike / turbo set-up so I'm pretty sure it's accurate relative to itself. That means I've got the same FTP as my highest test from the end of last summer riding every week. Thus: I'll turn pro by hill climb season and my sponsor will give me a helium bike, right?

  • TR overestimates compared to what?

    But as you say, it only matters that it's relative - I think you'll only know the answer to your question by trying something different from here if really the main gain here is to get your fitness level back again. Which, based on those numbers is bloody good.

  • Overestimates relative to an actual power meter. I'm using virtual power from resistance curve / wheel speed. Those numbers are to be taken with a bag of salt... apart from my weight. I'm pretty sure that's right.
