Training with the i-Vortex
SCOPE
Scope speed
If the brake is incapable of attaining the power demanded at a given incline up- or down hill, virtual
speed is used. The speed indicated is the speed that corresponds to the set incline and current power
out put. Because it is not possible to set an even lower power for the brake, the indicated speed will
be higher. If uphill it is not possible to set an even higher power for the brake the indicated speed will
be lower. A horizontal bar will appear underneath the value in case of virtual speed.
Scope power
When the set power cannot be attained at the speed you are riding at a horizontal bar will appear
underneath the value for your information.
