Feature Request: [3s]Power in Climber and Strava Segments

Not planned

I would find it very useful to have a way of showing power-data when entering a climb or a Strava segment. I like the features but the pop-up from below overlaps with my power/data fields on my training screens so I always have to decide to either use climber/segment or my data screens but never together. That renders them useless to me because I cannot use my powermeter to pace myself. A workaround will be to always place the fields I need on top of my screens, but this is not a solution because I really like the setup I already have and on a map screen I prefer to have the map on top.

  I also have the power field at the bottom of the map, so I added a second data sheet that has power and heart rate at the top. So I can also easily switch between the map view and 4 datafields in the upper part, while the CLimber or segment view is active at the bottom. Maybe this is also a good solution for you? I think it is even better than a permanent data field because it is much more flexible

  Agree with this, so frustrating that you cant ride a climb or segment to power.....and other data is prioritised by Hammerhead. To really build a valuable feature, the data shown within the Climber/Strava segment screens should be configurable, even if just to which metric is shown in the predefined (and unchangeable) locations on screen.

  Not having power as a metric seems a huge miss, but assume would be a wasted data field if a user doesn't have a power meter, thus strengthens my argument for configurable fields.

  Thanks for the hint - I actually also have a second screen (my current lap screen) which has the power data on top. But sometimes I‘m a couple of data screens away from it, depending which screen I’m currently using and when I get „surprised“ by a steep climb it‘s kind of hard to swipe between screens. Only on my bike with my Di2 I can switch between screens mid-effort without letting go of my handlebars.

  Also good point that not all users train with power (probably very large part doesn‘t) .
  I totally support the argument for configurable field - climber or segment screen appears for the duration of a climb/segment and I would like to have all the relevant information I need to complete the effort without having to move between screens. In my case this would be 3s power, another person may prefer heart rate,
  30s power or something else.
