Power for the People
As professional coaches know, compared to simply measuring heart rate, which can easily be affected by environmental factors or personal physiological conditions, using a power meter is the best way to gain metrics for training: the data given by direct force shows the real output from every pedal stroke.
Giant believes, however, that it shouldn’t just be the pros that can benefit from this information, all riders can gain from using a power meter. For this reason, we introduce the all-new Power Pro, a dual sided power meter developed exclusively by Giant that provides accurate and stable power data for all.
IPX7 waterproof and featuring an integrated magnetic rechargeable design, the Power Pro is fully protected from water or dust while riding. With built-in overcharge, over-discharge and short-circuit protection to extend battery life and ensure safe battery use, the Power Pro delivers up to 100 hours of riding on a single charge.
Multi-axis left and right crank arm sensors provide vital information including power in watts, pedal balance, force angle and cadence. With a Giant-exclusive algorithm and auto temperature calibration (ATC), the Power Pro can provide accurate and stable power data (±2 %) without being affected by surrounding environment.
Power Pro requires no magnet and is fully Bluetooth® Smart/ANT+ compatible: view pedaling performance and calibrate using any ANT+ capable head unit or through the Giant RideLink app. Additionally, although the LED indicator on the unit clearly displays the battery level, you can also view your remaining charge using the RideLink app, which will also remind you when it’s time to recharge.
This fully integrated, dual-sided power meter measures power output and delivers accurate data to help you track, analyze and improve your performance on the bike. Engineered with multi-axis left and right crank arm sensors, the Power Pro displays vital information including power (watts), pedal balance, force angle and cadence. The meter pairs with the Giant NeosTrack GPS computer and is also compatible with other popular ANT+ head units. Its battery lasts up to 150 hours (or 1500 miles) of riding on a single charge and is easy to re-charge. An LED indicator on the crankarm-mounted Power Pro displays the battery level, or you can view it using the Giant RideLink app. The app also lets you update firmware and calibrate the Power Pro before each ride.
Accelerometer detects cadence without a magnet switch, making it easier to set up and use. The sensor collects multiple cadence data points throughout the pedal stroke to calculate pedaling angle and exact force position, providing data to help evaluate pedaling efficiency.
The microprocessors instantly calculate power data with minimum energy consumption, providing industry-leading battery life.
The high-capacity lithium battery delivers up to 100 hours of riding on a single charge.
IPX7 waterproof, anti-dust casing with a closed magnetic rechargeable design protects the PowerPro from water or dust while riding.
Check battery level, update firmware and calibrate the Power Pro meter quickly and easily with Giant RideLink smartphone app. The app is available on Google Play for Android devices and the Apple App store for iOS devices.
A proprietary algorithm eliminates environmental variables that can negatively affect data. Developed through data acquisition with professional and amateur racers in real world riding conditions, this algorithm compensates for both weather variances as well as competing digital noise from nearby devices that can cause inaccurate or inconsistent data.
