Pedal-Based Power
Vector™ measures pedal-based power.
Vector measures the force you apply a few hundred times every second. Vector also measures your cadence or rotational pedaling speed. By measuring the force, the direction of force, the rotation of the crank arm, and time, Vector can determine power (watts). Because Vector independently measures left and right leg power, it reports your left-right power balance.
NOTE:
The
Vector S system does not provide left-right power balance.
