Hi all, as one of my N+1s, I've had a front hub powered Brompton (nano kit) for a while which runs off a cadence sensor. I'm considering getting a Fazua assisted road bike and was just trying to make sure I understood how a torque sensor works.
Fazua quote assistance levels as
white 0% or 0W
green 75% or 125W
blue 150% or 250W
pink 240% or 400W
Presumably this means that if I am in the green mode and I'm putting in 100w of power pedalling, the assistance gives me a further 75w (175w in total). So this means at 166.6w from me, the system provides 125w of power on top (so 291w in total) but if I put in 200w in the same mode, the power assists remains at 125w as that is the upper limit for that setting ?
At the other end in pink mode, for that same 166.6w, it adds in 400w (566w in total). And in any mode, if I am providing anything over 166.6w, the power assistance will be hitting its top level of assist ?
Just trying to understand how it works!
Cheers
Dave
