- Introducing CycleOps PowerCal the worlds’ first-ever power meter calculated from heart rate. For years there has been a widely recognized correlation between power and heart rate. In a lab one can predict power output or intensity by knowing heart rate and vice versa. But once you leave the lab and enter variables such as hills wind and fatigue the relationship gets a bit trickier. This is why many cyclists and triathletes use both a heart rate monitor and a power meter in training.Through the use of these tools and the analysis of tens of thousands of power files over the years the experts at CycleOps and the University of Colorado Boulder have identified patterns which can correlate an athlete’s heart rate to power across all real world conditions. We’ve utilized this knowledge to create a technology which provides power based on this correlation; in the real world and in real time. PowerCal displays power on any existing ANT+ compatible power computer display or watch. Just calibrate PowerCal to your individual power-HR relationship pair it to your favorite ANT+ compatible display and off you go! Since PowerCal is calibrated to you individually you get a better measure of your caloric expenditure – which is crucial information – whether you’re trying to stay on top of your nutrition during a long bike ride or simply trying to shed a few pounds.Though it’s not as precise as our PowerTap it’s a great tool nicely encapsulated within a heart rate monitor strap which you can own for the cost of about one-month’s groceries. Not to mention PowerCal can also be used for running or other activities allowing you to use the same units of measure across a variety of disciplines or cross-training activities. So if you’re ready to take your performance to the next level let PowerCal help get you there.Details:•The world’s first-ever power meter calculated from heart rate•Displays watts without replacing components on your bicycle•Real world and in real time data•Easy to install set-up and maintain•Multisport functionality: use same unit of measure across training activities•ANT+ compatible: pair with Joule/Joule GPS or any ANT+ compatible display
