I need almost 2h for the Tourmalet – climb, time enough watching many climbers almost „flying“ the mountain up at 100% or 125% with 4.5w and more . We don’t need streets, we need runways. A game I pay money for watching many others cheating.

Yes, but you only get the +10XP bonus. No 250XP bonuses! So I wouldn’t advise it.

No, you only get credit for 50% of the normal elevation when you ride it at 50%. 50% literally scales the climb so it’s half as steep.

Would it be an easier way to earn the tron bike using climb portals?
Or more precisely: are you still getting rewarded for the full ascent even if you have set the scale to 50% or is that one reduced as well?

So i just did this cote de pike route. But it does not work anymore. I did not get any huge bonus , i got 5 10xp on each portal 9 8 7 and then no xp each time i passed the 9 8 7 portal.

It seems zwiift fixed the “bug”😪

Do this hack on cote de pike still work as of today on arch 9 to 7 ?
Btw, when you say arch 9 to 7 is it on your way up or down ?
