What Do I Need to Know About KICKR v5 Auto Spindown?
Automatic Calibration
Why is this necessary?
The automatic calibration removes the needs for the regular spindown functionality, instead it continuously calibrates the KICKR throughout a ride so that your power accuracy is always correct.
How does this work?
We're continuously monitoring the KICKR and detecting coasting. When the KICKR coasts we are able to measure the drag in the system which allows us to recalibrate.
Do I still need to do a regular spindown?
No - a regular spindown is no longer needed because the automatic calibration is always on.
