The system wasn't designed to disadvantage women on purpose. But women's-only divisions are missing a protection that Open divisions have—and that gap explains everything. The wattage floor keeps lighter riders from being upgraded into categories where they'd get destroyed. Women's-only racing has n
Frustrated with ZRL racing? Lighter women face a built-in disadvantage under a category system that claims to measure relative fitness but actually rewards absolute watts. We break down the data showing how current w/kg thresholds create a substantial power gap—and reveal why heavier teams can linge
