FrancoisO Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 A friend asked me which one he should buy? Polar(Some people say it is not always accurate)SRM(Expensive)Power Tap(Need two one for training and one for Racing, Expensive)I-Bike(Difficult to calibrate) Was wondering if you guys can help?
Marius Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Why do you need a PowerTap while racing??? Are you gonna pace yourself up the hills/flats or are you gonna try and stay with the bunch?
FrancoisO Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 Sorry do not know to much about Power. Don't you need some of those values that you get while racing for the different training zones?
Marius Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Nope, all you need a 1x 20mins puke effort and your zones are worked out from there.

[/quote'] Thanks, so are all your zones endurance, threshold worked out from there? So then you get max and min power zones for all your training? Where do you get good prices?
word Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Contact Bruce Diesel - he knows. My 2 cents worth is that the guys at Bikemax Power (local agents for Powertap) are awesome
