Yes but not completely if you look at the graphs you can see I am having drop outs on some occasions while still pedalling.

I'm genuinely not seeing that

Compare the Orange Garmin bike cadence to the Blue Zwift power.
If you are comparing the Blue Zwift power to the Blue Zwift cadence, its the same because its getting the signal from the same source.

Ah OK.

I don't know why the garmin cadence doesn't line up as well - maybe it's the way/timing that it's recording data and as your cadence changes are quite sudden and drastic sometimes it's just not picking up that your cadence went right to zero before picking back up?

It still generally tracks the peaks and troughs of power. And I think the bigger picture is your pedaling style going on/off from zero to 125RPM is causing issues - for racing where accurate power is important anyway

Yes I do that every time in DRS because I am really crap at longish steady-state efforts with no draft.

I really get found out on no draft events (unless they're all anaerobic like the 3 minute ones )

The nice thing is the way DRS puts segments in the iTT is that it gives people like me something to play for. Those 30 points were very helpful . It's pretty much impossible to get 1st FTS in sprints AND win the iTT and that is very deliberate by design.

I wasn't expecting to do very well in race 6, but I surprised myself with my best result of the series

I'm the same and hope to try and do something similar if my calf allows me, although I'll be pootling much slower for the rest of race and won't chance race 2, already a bit silly to try this one to be honest

Fastest all rounder just dropped! Better than 4.5s on flats and climbs!

Bugger. I'll have to buy those then



I'm holding off for now

Aye does make me wonder if they've fallen out with specialised 🤣 does make sense newer wheels would be fast. The disc wheels were apparently the fastest disc wheels on initial testing but they have been brought back a bit since

4* on weight and aero? Doesn't this make them a one-shop wheel?
