My Watts Look Low!

General Discussion
1

Hi, everybody. I’m just starting out with my Specialized Roubaix mounted to a new CycleOps M2 and a CycleOps trainer tire. I took my first short ride last night (3.2 miles/30 minutes) and noticed that my watts were consistently low throughout. I was showing 45 to 65 when each leg was looking for, like, 150?? My speed was showing 2 mph at times, too. What’s up? Am I too weak for this? Is there a calibration to do?

Thanks!

Have you done a spindown calibration using the Rouvy app?

HI, thanks. Just read around the forum and discovered Rouvy. I have the app now so I’ll work with it. I’ll do the spindown calibration before my next session.
Thanks, Nigel.
