    "We have seen that in most cases our watts number are very close to the numbers provided by a Powertap or SRM... Our calculations are most accurate when climbing given accurate rider and bike weight."

    While I don't have a Powertap or SRM but I do have a Stages and a Pioneer and I find this statement overreaching. Strava Virtual Power is a good estimate when the right condition present itself.

    I would go with Strava over MFP every time for cycling calories.
