Peak Power Test
The Wattbike has a built in peak power test. In the Just ride mode
press ENTER until you see ‘peak Watt’ in the bottom left of the
screen and ‘peak rpm’ in the bottom right of the screen. You can
set the other display units using the up/down keys on the WPC.
This is a very short test and should take only a few seconds or pedal
revolutions.
Set the Air-brake gear lever at your personal level and warm up for
10 minutes. You are now ready to do the peak power test. From a
static starting position pedal as fast and as hard as you can, after a
few pedal revolutions ‘peak Watts’ and ’peak rpm’ will stop rising –
the figures shown are your peak power in watts and peak rpm.
Record your peak power and peak rpm to compare against future
re-tests.
Do not undertake this test if feeling unwell or if you are injured. If
in doubt consult your Doctor before undertaking the peak power
test.
