I have a kickr V5 wahoo. The watts when peddling are registering high, for example 450 but I don’t find it too difficult to pedal. Everything is paring, and the v5 calibrates itself. I have unplugged the trainer and uninstalled zwift and reinstalled and nothing helps. I tried putting my bike on my daughters trainer which is a kicker core and when the watts get to 250 it is difficult to pedal. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix the wattage issue I am having?
