    Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).

  • Great, comprehensive explanation of what power numbers mean for a cyclist.

    Interesting book which does a good job of balancing technical explanations with a simple to read format and explanation of why things mattered. I read this book while holding my phone in the other hand, scrolling through power numbers from Strava or Garmin Connect, and the book really helps.
