Chapter 1: Starting Out Thank you for purchasing CycleOps Joule 2.0, the first cycling computer designed for cyclists who train with power. This user guide is just one of the resources to help you understand all the features Joule 2.0 has to offer. Please visit www.cycleops.com to: • Learn more about Joule 2.
Chapter 1: Starting Out Compatibility Joule 2.0 is compatible with any ANT+ compatible power meter, speed sensor, cadence sensor or heart rate strap. For more information on ANT+ compatible devices, please visit www. thisisant.com. Note: Joule 2.0 is not compatible with wired version of PowerTap and non-ANT+ PowerTap models such as the SL 2.4. In addition, Joule 2.0 is compatible with the following CycleOps products: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
Chapter 1: Starting Out Installing CycleOps Joule™ 2.0 Using Standard Mount The standard mount can be installed in either stem or handlebar orientations for use on any handlebar or stem. The mount is preassembled for the stem orientation. 1. For stem orientation insert two zip ties through bottom of mount and attach sticky pad. Secure to stem. 2. Position Joule 2.0 slightly behind mount. 3. Slide Joule 2.0 forward into mount until it snaps into place. Press to release 4. Be sure to check Joule 2.
Chapter 1: Starting Out Installing CycleOps Joule™ 2.0 Using Standard Mount For handlebar orientation, change the standard mount from the preassembled stem orientation. 1. Remove screw that holds bottom of mount and rotate 90 degrees. 4. Handlebar orientation. Be sure to check Joule 2.0 is secure in mount before riding. Joule 2.0 User Guide page 8 2. Insert screw threw bottom of mount. 3. Insert two zip ties through bottom of mount. Apply sticky pad and tighten zip ties to secure mount.
Chapter 1: Starting Out CycleOps (ANT+) Heart Rate Strap Wearing the heart rate strap, position it above torso as pictured. The strap should rest just beneath the pectoralis muscles of the chest. For best results slightly moisten the electrodes where contact is made with skin. The heart rate strap must be worn to enable the heart rate function. It should be snug enough to stay in place during the ride. NOTE: Joule 2.0 is compatible with any ANT+ compatible heart rate strap.
Chapter 1: Starting Out Charging Battery The Joule 2.0 is powered by a user replaceable lithium-ion battery that can be recharged using the included USB cable and a computer. A 5VDC 400mA charger can also be used (not included). A fully charged battery can run for approximately 20 hours before it must be recharged. Recharging completely, via USB cable or AC adapter will take approximately six hours. The battery level is indicated in the title bar. The Joule 2.
Chapter 1: Starting Out Installing MicroSD Card Joule 2.0 provides 4 MB of onboard memory for storing activities, history and workouts. Activity file size increases with ride time but a one hour ride is approximately 150 KB, history files are always 1 KB (1,000 history files = 1 MB) and workout files also increase with workout size but a workout containing 500 segments will be approximately 50 KB. A microSD card slot is available under the battery for additional memory.

Chapter 5: Workouts Using Saved Workouts with CycleOps 400 Pro Indoor Cycle Workouts may be created in PowerAgent software and saved to Joule for use on the 400 Pro indoor cycle. The advantage of saved workouts over manual workouts is that the resistance will change automatically based on the saved time or distance of each segment. This is helpful for duplicating a specific course you are training for.
Chapter 5: Workouts Using Saved Workouts with CycleOps 400 Pro Indoor Cycle...continued Slope measures grade steepness of your simulated climb. You can choose a grade between 0 and 25 for the slope. The higher the number, the steeper the slope you’re climbing. While in slope mode, the 400 Pro provides the resistance for the selected slope at whatever speed you’re riding. The faster you pedal, the more resistance you’ll need to overcome, just like riding up an actual hill.

Chapter 13: CycleOps Joule™ 2.0 Warranty CycleOps Joule 2.0 is warranted to the original retail purchaser to be free from defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty coverage is valid to the original purchaser only and proof of purchase will be required. Electronics - 1 year This warranty does not cover: 1. Normal wear and tear. 2. Any damage, failure or loss caused by accident, misuse, neglect, abuse, improper assembly, improper maintenance, or failure to follow instructions or warnings in User Guide .
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Absolute Intensity 1. The actual intensity value. For example, 300 watts, 175 beats per minute, or a 7 on a 1 to 10 RPE chart. Angular Velocity 1. The rate at which a spinning object rotates. 2. How fast something is spinning in units of angle per unit time such as degrees per second. 3. Angular displacement divided by elapsed time during which the displacement occurs. 4.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Force 1. A vector quantity that produces an acceleration of a body in the direction of its application. 2. To push. 3. The amount of pressure applied to the pedals or rear hub. 4. A measure of strength. 5. Power divided by velocity. Gross Mechanical Efficiency (GME) 1. The percentage of stored energy or food burned by the body that is converted to actual power output. For an average person riding a bicycle the gross mechanical efficiency is equal to 22%.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Kilocalorie or Kcal 1. 1000 calories. 2. A unit of energy equal to that needed to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram or liter of water 1 ˚C. 3. A measure of the amount of energy in food 4. On U.S. food labels, 1 Calorie, spelled with a capital “C”, rather than a lower case “c” is equal to 1 Kilocalorie or Kcal. 5. 4.186 Kjoules 6. For a given person, the total energy burned in Kcals is equal to the total Kjoules of work performed on a bicycle divided by 4.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Lactate Threshold > 1mM 1. The power output or exercise intensity where the blood lactate is equal to 1 mM above its resting baseline. 2. An exercise intensity characterized as hard. 3. The mid point of the lactate threshold training zone. 4. An exercise intensity that can be held for 1 to 2 hours. Lactate Threshold 4 mM 1. The power output or exercise intensity at a blood lactate level of 4 mM or 2 to 3 mM above baseline. 2.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Periodization 1. Breaking a training or race program into distinct periods where different attributes important to a cyclist’s overall performance are developed. 2. The idea that training adaptations are optimized by periods of hard work that exceed the average training load accustomed to by the athlete which are then followed by periods of easy work or recovery that are below the average training load normally performed by the athlete.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Rating of Perceived Exertion (PE or RPE) 1. An individual’s rating of effort or intensity typically scored on a 1 to 10 scale where 1 is equal to rest and 10 is equal to a maximal or all out effort. 2. An individual’s rating of effort or intensity scored on a 6 to 20 scale, where 6 is equal to rest and meant to be equivalent of a resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute and 20 is equal to a maximal effort or a heart rate of 200 beats per minute.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms Strain or Response 1. An indirect measure of the exercise intensity such as the cardiovascular (i.e., heart rate), metabolic, or psychological response to a given power output. 2. A measure of the total training load or work done that is based on a person’s response to a workout or bout of exercise rather than on the actual work. 3.
Chapter 14: Definition of Common Training Terms VO2 Max 1. The maximal amount of oxygen that a person can consume and process measured in liters of oxygen per minute (absolute) or in milliliters of oxygen per minute per kilogram of body weight (normalized to body weight). 2. The upper limit of aerobic metabolism. 3. A strong predictor of endurance performance in a mixed population of individuals. 4. An exercise intensity corresponding with the maximal power output a person can hold between 2 to 8 minutes.
