I have the Favero Assioma Duos and I use the app. But I have no clue how to find the advanced metrics like IAV, etc. It's not in the Assioma app. I can't access it through my Wahoo Elemnt app nor Strava. Where can I find this data?

Hi Alan! Thank you for getting in touch! The Assioma app is useful to activate the pedals, set the crank-arm length, perform manual calibration or a static weight test, get in touch with our Support Dept., and more, but you can't see any data related to power on it. You can do it, though, by connecting Assioma to any compatible bike computer - like your Wahoo Elemnt - or app featuring ANT+ and/or BLE connectivity. IAV Cycling Dynamics consists of IAV Power Phase and IAV Rider Position. So far, the possibility to read these two advanced metrics has been implemented only by Garmin and for some specific head units exclusively: Garmin Edge 520 Plus, 530, 820, 830, 1030; Garmin Forerunner 935, 945; Garmin Fenix 5 Series, 5 Plus Series, and Garmin MARQ Series. We don't know if other bike computer manufacturers will provide this possibility in the future. I hope to have clarified all your doubts, Anna
