Drivo 2 slow responding to changes in power

Postby pdwdbs » Mon Jun 14, 2021 9:50 am

I have just acquired an Elite Drivo 2 and am some problems using it in the Sufferfest App.

The problems arise when there is a change in power within the App to which the turbo is typically taking round 15 sec to respond to and settle down at the new power setting, but it has taken up to 25 sec on some occasions. And it can there can be massive swings in power as well. I was doing some MAP intervals where it required changing cadence from 110 to 75 but keeping the power the same (round 220W). When I tried to come back up from 75 cadence there were massive spikes in the power, going up to 340W, which took about 5 to 10 sec to come back from.

I ride the Drivo on the small chain ring on the front and 2nd or 3rd gear on the rear cassette, in ERG.

Any help or advice much appreciated. Thanks

Hi

It is possible to speed up a little the internal motor to make the trainer more reactive.
Consider that this makes the power change less smooth.
Contact the support at this link (you have to select the trainer model and then click on the option to open a ticket):
