Settings before you begin
The accuracy of the Flow's power display depends on factors such as the pressure of the cylinder
against the tyre, the tyre pressure, fluctuating magnetic forces and the difference in mains voltage.
To guarantee a good power measurement, the brake must be calibrated. For optimal calibration
we recommend cycling at least 3 minutes beforehand to warm-up the brake. Make sure the tyre
pressure is between 7 and 8 bar.
Brake calibration
The calibration value 0 appears at the bottom. You start the brake calibration with the
which causes three dashes to appear at the bottom of the display. Cycle at a speed above 30 km/h
(or 19 mi/h) until the word STOP appears. The moment you stop, the Flow computer measures the
deceleration of the rear wheel and the new calibration value appears on the display.
If the calibration fails (e.g. because you began pedalling during the measurement), ERROR appears on the display.
You can start the calibration again with the

Up arrow. You can set the calibration value to 0 with the Down arrow.
Training with the Flow
The Flow registers four training parameters: speed, power, cadence and heart rate.
1
Two training parameters are shown at any time, on the 2nd and 3rd lines of the display. With the
Up arrow you can switch the 2nd line from speed to cadence, power and heart rate. With the
2
Down arrow you can switch the training parameters on the 3rd line.
MODE functions for SPEED (km/h or mi/h)
The MODE functions on the 1st line of the display correspond to the training parameter on the 2nd
3
line. When the 2nd line is set to speed, the
(trip time), ODO (odometer), MAX (maximum speed) and AVS (average speed).
The values only reflect the actual time spend cycling since the computer was reset or switched on. If you take a
1
break, the data will be retained. Once you resume cycling, the computer begins calculating again, using all the data.
MODE functions for CADENCE (Cad)
2
When the 2nd line is set to cadence (Cad), TRP means the total number of pedal revolutions during
the trip, MAX means the maximum pedalling frequency and AVS the average pedalling frequency.
