I've had the PowerCranks for 10 days now. I'm getting the hang of them, having worked up to 30 minute rides on the trainer without massive discomfort, although at lower cadences and sitting up part of the time.
It's become apparent that I've got a laggard left leg, however. I've been doing most of my rides either straight spinscan, or riding a course with the spinscan splitscreen display. For the first couple of minutes, everything is "balanced", but after that, the left leg tires. I can sort of feel it, but not to the extent that I see it in the numbers. Unless I REALLY concentrate, the power split drops to 45/55 and the spinscan number on the left is 7-10 lower than on the right (mid to high 60's on the right, hovering at 60 or little below on the left). I might have had a little imbalance without the PC's, but I don't think to this extent or I would have noticed it.
Recommendations on what to "do" about this? Should I try to do some one-legged work on the left, or will the left "catch up" on its own?
