Mike-you are a legend, you pretty much answered everything, very informative readings, such a relief to know that it’s a common thing and dont just belong to me, additionally I wouldn’t feel bad next time to drop it down:)

Good suggestions, I’ll start with -20 probably it fixes up the problem.

My reading between the lines is that if the indoor and outdoor FTPs become somewhat same most likely if you do an outdoor test again you’ll see that your FTP’s improved by 10-20 Watt, isn’t why we put ourselves in such a harsher situation? 360 degree resistance, locked in position etc. once these conditions are lifted then intuitively you should do better, the article didn’t draw such a conclusion though!

Cheers,
