Hi All,

Anybody can tell more or less what should be the wattage on this Tacx Sporttrack Rollers ( http://www.wekeepyoucycling.com/en/p-29 ... llers.aspx )

50*11 95 rpm ( that's 3% more than 53*12 )

Thanks !

    I don't know but you need to take tyre width and pressure into consideration too.

    Thanks, now I have a couple of more details: on Tacx Sporttrack rollers

    It's a 700c * 28mm tire (CX bike) at 100 psi
    in the enclosed print I highlighted several speeds (calculated by http://www.jbarrm.com/cgi-bin/c42strt.cgi )

    If these help to get the power, that'll be Nice ! :)

    Thanks,

    I reckon about 150 to 210 watts :roll:. It would not be possible to get a figure from somebody else unless all the critical factors are considered. Like, a heavier or lighter person would develop different figures. So why don't you post on here everything about you, your bike etc., so somebody with similar characteristics can give you an estimate. But if you could borrow a power wheel then all would be revealed.
