Just starting or Saturday tandem ride, I noticed that a rider waiting at the light had an attachment to his Keo style pedals. That was a prototype Garmin Vector, and the rider is Clark Foy, one of the original founders of Metrigear, which Garmin acquired. He said it was one of 12 prototypes in the field, and that the Vector was soon to be in production (consistent with the late Summer release the Garmin CEO used in the conference call).




I said that the Vector is the only practical means for tandems to have power measurement, and he says that has been discussed, with speculation that the quantitative revelation about relative power output would would enliven conversation and relations between captains and stokers.
