It does swiss...see it takes your power output(how hard you pedalling) and use your weight to determine your speed up a gradient. Weight is input via two setting...rider weight and bike weight...system simply adds the two together.

 

Lets say we both churning out 200watts...but you weigh 80 and I weigh 100. Your speed will be adjusted, quite clever

Makes sense, do you have to enter the weight every time you do a ride or is it a one time thing that is part of the user info (age, sex, etc...) that you record on initial set up?

Its an honesty thing...sort of like a handicap. You can go and alter it at anytime after the initial setup, but I generally dont.

 

Ons watch jou...noudat jy weet hoe die game werk
