outpowered by Metro...?? say its not so commando? lets break that power tap out again I have a point to prove.... My best sprint result was a 2nd in A grade NSW road race:  a long time away from my form of late (1 lap of black Hill before a  full body meltdown   )

Thor,

I think Commando has sold the Powertap but should still have the data.  Happy for a retest if someone has a Powertap they'd like to loan - I would expect my peak power would be a little less than it was back then.

My main point was it does not matter if my peak power and torque figures eclipse you.  Firstly I have a lot more mass to move and secondly the way I deliver my power/torque is such that it does not translate in to more acceleration than you.  I could train my ring off and I would lack that "something" that translates in to that high output over a short period.  A true sprinter can always sprint.  A fat powerful numpty (me) can only outsprint less powerful numpties.
