[Cuchilo]

Just set my TT bike up with a stages pm and calibrated it with my garmin 1000 . When i went to put the readout on the main screen it gave me loads of options to choose from . Any tips on whats the best one to pick ?

Keep mine simple, Zone/Time in zone/ 3 or 5 sec avg can't remember which / % of FTP

All the other crap is turned off on that ride profile, maps/elevation etc

This is going to sound like I'm being difficult - but pick the combination that best displays the performance metrics you are interested in.

As I am using mine as a training tool usually intervals of various lengths ,I have it set to display 3 sec and 10 sec average and lap average power. I reset the lap timer at the start and end of each interval. On endurance rides I try to keep the 10 sec + lap average on target and mostly ignore the 3 sec.

I've not used pm outdoors yet but at the moment IIRC, I have just 5 fields, Cadence, HR, 3 sec power, 30sec power and elapsed time. Once I have confidence in it I'll swap the HR field for something else.
