Powertap question
hey, does the powertap sl measure your power from each leg? or do you just get the total power output?

i thought that a hub could measure roughly each leg's output since with the cadence feature it could tell which leg was pushing down... well, really i was [I]hoping[I] that it could

You can get a good idea of individual leg relative power with a PT or SRM with one-legged drills.
I would think the SRM and PT could measure individual leg power with better software. The cadence sensor on the NDS could tell you that the current power is from the right leg. 1/2 phase out, the power reading would be for the left leg.
Man, I need a Quarq so I can implement some of the software ideas I have for the open source world. Ugh. Sometimes I just wish I could spend my money.
