5.8.3 PERFORMAncE MEASUREMEnT – hOW DOES IT WORk?
The ROX 9.1 is equipped with a new function:
The PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT.
The calculation of performance is based on
a formula lodged within the ROX 9.1.
Here the calculated performance is the power
that is needed to move the bike, not the power
acting on the pedals.
To evaluate performance, several values have
to be entered in the ROX 9.1: Weight of the
bike and the cyclist, bike type and position of
the cyclist on the bike, cyclist's height and
shoulder width.
5.8.4 GhOST RAcE – My cOMPETITOR
The ROX 9.1 features a new, unique function:
GHOST RACE.
This feature allows every ROX 9.1 rider to
race against himself/herself. GHOST RACE is
unique because it is a comparison in real time.
Only two steps are necessary to enable the
GHOST RACE:
Select an already cycled trip stored in the
DATA CENTER and save it as GHOST RACE.
The route that you wish to transmit as the
GHOST RACE must not take longer than five
hours to cycle.
The performance values shown are
approximate figures and are calculated
assuming an average wind speed and
average road quality.
The performance is calculated precisely on
a slope, whereas average values are used
for calculation on a level route.
Transfer the GHOST RACE trip from the
DATA CENTER to the ROX 9.1.
Now you can race against yourself on this
route, which is to cycle against your own
saved "ghost". The ROX 9.1 indicates while
riding whether you are ahead of your "ghost"
or behind it. It does not matter whether the
trip takes you uphill, downhill or along flat
roads.
Thereafter, the data can be easily analyzed,
compared and evaluated using the DATA
CENTER. Thus you can always review your
own performances accurately and keep an
eye on them.
