last evening I was doing some longer intervals on my TACX Neo trainer. I also have powertap pedals on my bike, and so I figured I would compare the data between the two. the intervals on the Tacx were between 315 and 320, whereas the powertap pedals were reading 325-330. 10 watts is not a big discrepancy, but two questions arose.
1. is this expected given minor power transfer losses from pedal to drivetrain?
2. do people calibrate their powertap pedals before each use? what happens if you dont?
Thanks
