I'm not derailing the thread. I am disagreeing with your dismissal of his results by invoking unmeasured differences that you yourself state are unknowns. His results are better and more robust than what you claim.
No they're not.
Those tires could be 30 watts slower and he simply put out 30 watts more to make up for the difference. You have no idea. Neither does he.
"Unmeasured differences that are unknown." Yeah. That's the point.
Again, if you don't understand what a power meter does, this is a pointless tangent.
