TrainerRoad - Can we get a final answer on smart trainer calibration with PowerMatch?

@larry @Bryce Be aware.

There are two parts to this.

  1. With today’s PowerMatch, doing a spin down calibration on your trainer MIGHT get the trainer and power meter to start with less of an offset. This would mean PowerMatch would zero into your target wattage earlier in the workout, but probably not by much.

  2. With a planned PowerMatch update it will be important to do a spin down calibration so that your trainer always measures the same. This update hasn’t started being worked on.

So, if you want to do a spin down calibration, you can. If not, you don’t have to. I personally don’t do it.
