  • Hallelujah! Will be checked ASAP!

    THANKS 

  • It would be good to have more details on this:

    Fixed issue with left/right power balance recording

    If I believe my balance, I'm right leg biased. However, I've seen instances where it reports 40%/60%, which seems extreme.

    Also, I'm glad they've given some love to the device-to-device transfer. This was one of the most unreliable features - worked less than half the time!

  • Just returned from an EMTB ride and still saw several notifications of my ebikes sensors reconnecting Cry

  • Don't know if it's because of this beta, or that my 945 also is on latest beta, or if it was an one off, but today I could not get the training load to sync from the 530 to CG Web using wifi although I restarted the 530 several times. The training load did not update on the web until I synced using CG mobile (iOS).

    (Today I've done three activities using my 945 and they transfered fine to the 530 using wifi, but new training load score from the 530 did not transfer back to web using wifi, I had to start GCM to get it updated )

  • Yeh, same, well worse actually. Going to roll back to 8.20....

  • Any news on the dropping sensors bug?

    Thanks

  • I have had 3 rides now with 3 different bikes.

    1. 65 km with Crossbike

    Sram Red Etap : one dropout; Stages PM: one Dropout; Gramin Speedsensor OK; Wahoo HF OK

    2. 90 km with roadbike

    no dropouts at all. (Stages PM, Shimano Di2, Garmin Speedsensor and Garmin HF)

    3. 75 km with Crossbike

    no dropouts at all. (Stages PM, Garmin Speedsensor and Garmin HF)

    All Sensors are paired via ANT+

     

  • Nope, it did not sync training load via wifi today either, and this time the activity was recorded on the 530. The activity transfered to the web just fine via wifi but training load did not change until I started the phone app...

  • Same thing tonight, it does not sync training load on wifi, app must be used.
