Yes. It’s tracking absolutely in line with my power meter now.
When I say the resulting FTP is high, I mean by 15w. I don’t think it’s an accuracy issue.
I’m keen to understand the difference between riding in the big and small ring once a trainer has taken control of resistance. It certainly feels different. I presume it’s to do with inertia.
I have long suspected a ramp test would give me a slightly higher FTP. It seems ridiculous that such a short test can give a guide on what power a cyclist could achieve for an hour.
