hope this helps. feel free to ask any other questions. i'm really sorry this happened. i lost a few years of data.
Great info, thanks!
Let me rephrase the question:
You have two bikes, A and B. A is your nice race bike, with an SRM. B is your retired race bike, turned commuter, with PT. The SRM reads significantly lower than the PT. However, you spend most of your time on bike B training/commuting (75% of hours).
So the data gathered from the SRM at races is massively lower than your training, making it less than useful.
Ideally, I'd like the two to read as closely as possible in order to have seamless data gathering.
Phrased in this situation, would you still not recommend tweaking the slope of the SRM until the data gathered is roughly the same?
