You ought to find the increased 5 min power very helpful for racing. I sure did.
yes i sure hope so! next race wont be for another week or 2, so we'll see. cant wait till i get my 10 races in for that upgrade.
and i weigh 150lbs, which puts me right at about 4.94 w/kg for a 5min effort. and considering im 5'10", i wouldnt say im a walking stick compared to some of u =)
