Automatically Calculating FTP
Before the device can calculate your functional threshold power (FTP), you must have a paired power meter and
heart rate monitor (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 82).
NOTE: The estimate may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires a few rides to learn about your cycling
performance.
1 Select > My Stats > FTP > Enable Auto Calculation.
2 Ride at a steady, high intensity for at least 20 minutes outdoors.
3 After your ride, select Save Ride.
4 Select > My Stats > FTP.
Your FTP appears as a value measured in watts per kilogram, your power output in watts, and a position on
the color gauge.
