“Great service and quick delivery from Westbrook. Its my first power meter. This was recomended to me from a club mate who had road tested one for six months and was delighted with it. Easy to set up and calibrate. You have to be careful and patient when inserting the battery as the plastic cap is difficult to set correctly as it is such a small thread to find the correct turn and lock position. Once you find the right position it just drops in. This must be correct to ensure water tightness and maintain battery life. Once set up I use only three settings on the Garmin screen.... 3 second Power, Cadence and Time. On the second page I have Distance, Average Speed and Speed. I did the 20 minute steady test to check FTP but was into a strong head wind with more of a steady gradient than expected so it was lower than expected at 176w Instead I used a factor of 4 x body weight 69 kg to give 276w to maintain on a long climb of 8% which worked well as I was in control working hard and maintained those over 8 hill reps. This factor is the power to weight calc which I believe to be the standard, that is a factor of body weight 1 to 3 if you are a weekend warrior who is not great on hills or a factor of 4 to 7 if you are Chris Froome or a good regular club rider. Only one negative is that the Sensor drops out for about 10 seconds maybe every 5 minutes. I don't know if others have found this.”
