Convert watts and body weight into W/kg, estimate FTP zones, compare rider categories, and approximate climbing time differences.

Power-to-Weight (W/kg) FTP Zones Climbing Time Rider Categories

Advanced Cycling Power-to-Weight Calculator

Use Simple W/kg, FTP Zones, Climbing Time and Category Comparison tabs to understand how your power and weight influence real-world cycling performance.

This climbing time estimate uses a simplified gravity-only model and ignores wind, rolling resistance and technical factors.

Cycling Power-to-Weight Calculator Inputs

Cycling Power-to-Weight Calculator uses Average Power, Weight, Weight Unit, Effort Duration, FTP (Functional Threshold Power).

Cycling Power-to-Weight Calculator Formula or Method

  • W/kg = 250 ÷ 70 ≈ 3.57 W/kg
  • Power-to-Weight Ratio (W/kg) = Power (W) ÷ Weight (kg)
  • Time ≈ (Mass × g × Elevation Gain) ÷ Power
