Unreliable

One day it’s good the next is not and the batteries in the crank based meters often are spent in 2 weeks!!!! It’s frustrating and rubbish for the astronomical price! It’s good if it works.

Weekly PM’s are a nightmare with this thing

One moment it displays the bike i am looking at running my PM’s on. Connect to the bike, spinning crank…loading…loading…loading…then i have to exit the screen to re connect as it displays no information and now it cannot find the bike i just selected.

Needs a thorough once over and a developer update as it’s purpose is redundant when I can just pair and zero reset through the console on the bike.

Stürzt sofort ab

Macht leider nicht, was sie soll. Stattdessen stürzt sie zuverlässig nach der Verbindung mit Powermeter ab.
