BETTER.FTP vs RYDR

BETTER.FTP measures Functional Threshold Power using any FTMS-compatible smart trainer. No subscription, no account, no analytics. Pair your trainer over Bluetooth, select a protocol, and start the test. The app controls the trainer in ERG mode and guides you through warmup, test, and cooldown. FTP is calculated automatically when the test completes. PROTOCOLS • Ramp Test (~20 minutes) 10-minute warmup at 100 W. Power then increases by 20 W every minute until the rider can no longer maintain cadence. FTP is calculated as 75% of the best one-minute average power. • 20-Minute Test (~45 minutes) 15-minute warmup at 100 W. Followed by a sustained 20-minute maximum effort. FTP is calculated as 95% of the 20-minute average power. Based on the standard Coggan protocol.

RYDR turns your smart trainer into a controller. Your watts are the joystick. Connect your trainer over Bluetooth and play games where your pedalling drives the action, record your rides, and see where your effort lands against every other rider. PLAY WITH YOUR WATTS Pick a game from the library and ride it. Push harder and the game responds. Every game has its own leaderboards, so each session is a chance to climb. Some games are made for a bigger screen and play on a computer at play.rydr.gg, on the same account. RECORD A RIDE RYDR reads power, cadence and heart rate straight from your trainer and sensors. Watch your watts live, then save the ride and find it in your history with its full summary. SEE WHERE IT LANDS A personal best, a podium place or an outright record shows up on the community feed, alongside what every other rider has been doing. GET TOLD WHEN IT MATTERS Turn on notifications and RYDR tells you when someone beats one of your scores. It is optional, and declining it changes nothing else in the app. WHAT YOU NEED • A Bluetooth LE smart trainer that supports the standard FTMS profile. Heart-rate straps and cadence sensors are read too, if you have them. • An email address. There are no passwords: enter your email and we send you a six-digit code. RYDR is free.
