of course.
Using a HRM, cyclemeter was 2x every other bike computer I own in estimating calories - Garmin, Wahoo and other iPhone apps. Their algorithm was wonky compared to everyone else. When an algorithm is that far out of whack, a better strategy is to not offer the capability. That miss on their part led me to doubt their software in general and look elsewhere.
and yes, I do have power meters on my bikes.
