I know that topics about Polar CS600 were many on Cyclingforums. But being a new user and encountering these data dropouts , I was wondering if anybody had some more informations on the problem.
Or is it just someting we have to learn to deal with.  |

| Your best bet would be to use the google search function of cyclingforums.com which Paul set up. I started a powertap thread to compile diagnostic/troubleshoot info into one place. It would be nice if someone would do the same for SRM, Polar, etc. I only own a powertap so I'm not the best one for the task. |

After spending a couple of weeks struggling with my CS600 I came to the conclusion that this little thing works very well under very precise installation rules.
- First and surely the most important: this system will work ONLY on a bicycle that has a right rearstay very parallel to the chain. The power paddle needs to be as much as possible in line with the chain. It took me to try three different bicycles in order to find the one with the right rearstay.
- Second : Keep the chain as close as possible to the paddle. On 53x23 the chain shouldnt be higher than 3 cm.
- Third : Weight and measure the chain carefully as you'll measure carefully the wheelbase.
Doing so you'll get reliable data and no more data dropouts.
When this thing works I'd say it's a very good product with an excellent software to prepare and then analyse workouts. |
