Cycling Power-to-Weight Ratio Calculator

Want to see how your watts stack up? Enter your average power for 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, or 60 minutes(FTP), along with your weight and sex, to calculate your power-to-weight ratio (W/kg). Then, compare your numbers to cyclists across all levels, from beginner to pro, and see where you stand.

You can learn more about power-to-weight ratio and how to improve it here. If you are not sure how to calculate your Functional Threshold Power (FTP), this article will walk you through the field tests and calculations.
