hi everyone,
this is not a post about power difference measured by different power meters.
it should be about the subjective feeling when it comes to same power output on different trainers.
this is my story:
I recently upgraded from a wheelon (elite novo mag) with a garmin vector 2 to a kickr core 2018 (refurbished).
from a first glance, the garmin measures slightly more watts than the kickr core
(i do understand the concept that garmin measures in the pedal and the kickr in the rearhub and due to friction there is a loss of power)
but now comes the plot twist:
the same wattage output (220 measured by the kickr, 230 by the garmin) feels way easier on the kickr than on the wheelon (230 measured by the garmin).
does anyone share the same experience?
Thanks a lot
Marius
