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).

NOTE: The estimate may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires a few rides to learn about your cycling performance.

Select Menu > My Stats > FTP > Enable Auto Calculation.
Ride at a steady, high intensity for at least 20 minutes outdoors.
After your ride, select Save Ride.
Select Menu > 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.
