TORQUE 360: INpower's technology allows us to feature — among other data, the polar curve
of the effective torque — or force — applied to the pedal, which intuitively displays the
distribution of power exerted at different angles throughout a pedal rotation.
The fact that the ROTOR INpower technology doesn't measure the combined power of both legs
same as other systems in the market, but rather measures each leg independently, allows us to
analyze the complete pedal rotation and how power is delivered both in the descending phase of
a pedal rotation (positive) and the ascending phase of a pedal rotation (usually a negative reference).
The polar display is useful to know your pedaling pattern to help you to improve your pedaling
technique.
OCA: stands for Optimum Chainring Angle and is one of the new data features offered by ROTOR
2INpower.
OCA determines the angle in degrees, measured from the dead spot at the highest point, in
which the effort's (area enclosed by the torque curve or the force curve) barycenter is shown in
the TORQUE 360 graph.
To calculate the OCA, 2INpower takes into account all torque values, both positive and negative
(the pedal stroke's rebound).
The OCA is closely linked to ROTOR Q-Rings, since the OCA (Optimum Chainring Angle)
suggests in which position to install your Q-Rings, positions are marked by OCP (Optimum
Chainring Position) points on the chainrings.
A range of OCA values corresponds to OCP points. For example, if your OCA is between 87º
and 93º, you should start using Q-Rings in OCP #3.
