If you've performed your absolutely best at both tests then there is probably an error in your measurement or analysis. Most riders have reported improvements in the range 10 to 25W.

It is very structured and challanging, but it does not leave you drained like longer consecutive rides may do. After words I did another 5 min max test after about 6 days of easy riding and my data showed a 70 watt improvement (functional threshold power accoring to Power Tap power Agent software ). Is this for real or am I looking at the wrong thing? Regards, Dennis Jurs Team Mack Racing Jesper,
