Climber can help you pace yourself up every climb on every ride, whether you're following a Route or not. Turning on Climber allows Karoo to detect climbs and show you the important details for each, such as the elevation profile and distance to the top.
Requirements:
Climbs less than 400 m in length and a grade less than 3% will not be recognized with this feature. Higher minimum thresholds than these will apply to Medium and Large climbs.
By default, your unit will have this feature On and set to All Climbs. You can decide how sensitive you want Karoo’s climb detection to be by customizing your Climber settings under each Profile.
Open the Profile you want to customize the Climber settings for.
When Climber is turned on, you can select between
"All Climbs", "Medium and Large Climbs", and "Large Climbs Only".
Similar to profile customization, riders can select from any available data fields to display when Climber is active. See: Karoo OS - Customising Profiles
An upcoming climb will automatically trigger the Climber drawer to pop up.
The Climber Tab shows Distance and Elevation left to the top of the Climb,
and it can also be opened to full screen to see the Climb Number and Current Grade.
Here is a breakdown of the Climber tab:
You can see a breakdown of an Upcoming or Completed Climb by tapping on it.
To Start - Distance to start of the Climb (mi/km)
Avg Grade - Avg. Grade of Climb
Length - the Length of the Climb (mi/km)
When Riding with a Route:
If you are currently not on a climb, you can swipe the Climber drawer up to see all the upcoming climbs on the route.
Each segment is color-coded to its average gradient.
The brighter the color, the steeper the gradient.
Note: When this feature is turned on, entering a climb will trigger the screen to wake up even when you’re riding with the Battery Save Mode.
