Using Manual Workouts with CycleOps 400 Pro Indoor Cycle...continued

5. Press [RESISTANCE JOYSTICK] in and release to change the resistance type from target power to target slope.
Slope measures grade steepness of your simulated climb. You can choose a grade between 0 and 25. The higher
the number, the steeper the slope you’re climbing. While in slope mode, the 400 Pro provides the resistance
for the selected slope at whatever speed you’re riding. The faster you pedal, the more resistance you’ll need to
overcome, just like riding up an actual hill. The resistance the 400 Pro simulates is calculated considering the
power needed to climb the target slope on a road bike with slick tires and the user weight saved in Joule’s User
Setup. For information on setting up user weight see pages 66-67 or connect Joule to PowerAgent software to
adjust user weight.

6. Press [RESISTANCE JOYSTICK] in and release again to change from target slope to gearing. The gearing set-
ting uses the previously set target slope but allows you to change the gear ratio simulated by the 400 Pro. This
is useful for understanding what gear combination is best for you on various slopes so you can train for your
goal terrain. The gears and ratios simulated by the 400 Pro are listed above:

7. Press and release [INTERVAL] at anytime during a manual workout to start a new interval and end a previous
interval. To review intervals during a manual workout, press [MODE] to navigate to Activities Mode and then
pess the [JOYSTICK] left/right to highlight the intervals then press [JOYSTICK] up/down to scroll list.
