Triathletes love gadgets and they love data. When you can combine the two they are in heaven, which is why the subject of power meters is always hotly debated. There is a lot of choice and so this week’s guest will help to clear the water a bit. George Galbraith is the owner and founder of Jam Cycling, and they distribute the Infocrank by Verve Cycling power meter in the UK. He does a really, really good job of remaining impartial as he answers listener questions including:

  • Some basic considerations for someone purchasing their first power meter.
  • If a watt is a standard measurement of power why is there so much variation between brands?
  • Are power meters worth the massive expense for age group athletes?
  • What is the best way to perform an FTP test?
  • If you train with power, should you race with it?
  • Pedal, crank, hub, bottom bracket - which type of powermeter is best?
  • When racing with power, what are the key measures to have on display?
  • What are the key metric to analyse when looking at post-ride power data?
