GPX Route
Power Analysis

A GPX route power analysis estimates how much cycling power may be required across different parts of a route. ARVENTO reads distance, elevation and gradient from the GPX, combines them with rider and bike inputs, and produces a segment-by-segment power and pace estimate.

CdA and Crr are model assumptions. Most riders do not know their measured values, so ARVENTO uses fixed practical defaults unless you choose to adjust them.

Model limits

Why your real ride may differ

This is a route model, not a guarantee. The prediction estimates the physical demand of the GPX under the assumptions shown above.

  • Wind
  • Road surface
  • Corners and braking
  • Traffic and intersections
  • Stops
  • Drafting / group riding
  • Tire pressure
  • Temperature
  • Rider fatigue
  • Position changes
Descending speed is model-limited. Real speed depends on corners, road surface, traffic, braking, weather and rider judgment. Wind is not included in this estimate.

Assumptions, explained

The physics behind the presets

What is CdA?

CdA describes how much aerodynamic drag the rider and bike create. A lower value generally means a more aerodynamic position.

What is Crr?

Crr describes rolling resistance between the tires and road surface. Tire choice, pressure and pavement quality can affect it.

Most riders do not know measured CdA or Crr values. ARVENTO therefore starts with practical riding and road presets.

Quick answers

GPX power analysis FAQ

What is GPX route power analysis?

It estimates cycling effort across a route by combining GPX distance, elevation and gradient with rider, bike and power inputs.

Can a GPX file predict cycling power?

A GPX can support a model estimate when it contains usable elevation, but it cannot measure actual power or account for every road condition.

How does gradient affect cycling power?

Climbing adds gravitational resistance, while descending reduces it. Steeper gradients change the speed possible at a given power.

How do I estimate speed from cycling power?

A physics model balances wheel power against aerodynamic drag, rolling resistance and gravity to estimate speed.

Do I need to know my CdA?

No. A practical riding-position preset is sufficient for planning; measured personal CdA would improve accuracy.

What is Crr in cycling?

Crr is the rolling-resistance coefficient between the tires and road. Tires, pressure and pavement all affect it.

Why does predicted speed differ from my real ride?

Wind, corners, braking, traffic, stops, drafting, fatigue, weather and position changes are not fully represented by a route model.

Does wind affect GPX power prediction?

Yes. Wind can materially change aerodynamic demand, but this MVP assumes zero wind.

Is FTP important for route pacing?

FTP provides a useful reference for sustainable pacing, but it is not a target to hold for an entire route.

Can I use a GPX route to plan climbing power?

Yes, when the GPX has usable elevation. Treat the result as a planning range rather than a guarantee.

Can I estimate ride time from a GPX file?

Yes. Distance, elevation, rider inputs and model assumptions can produce a useful range, but stops and weather can change the result.

Is my GPX uploaded to a server?

No. This tool reads the GPX locally in your browser and does not upload it.
