System Overview
THE POWERTAP SYSTEM
The PowerTap system includes a power-measuring hub which measures torque and wheel
speed. This information is transmitted to a computer mounted on the handlebar or stem. Heart
rate data is transferred via a coded telemetry signal from the chest strap monitor. The data is
then integrated to display current, average, and maximum biometric information.
PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
The PowerTap hub comes either alone or in a pre-built wheel. If purchased alone, the hub must
be built into a complete wheel prior to use. Other items necessary for installation and not provid-
ed include a cassette, spoke protector, reflector
s, skewer, rim, tire, and tube (clincher rim) or glue
and tubular tire (tubular rim). See TABLE 1 to verify package contents.
