Rode today and this happened. ‘MPA & Power’ CIQ field registered a breakthrough during the ride and the Activity on Xert post ride shows MPA dipping below Power, yet no breakthrough, or even Near Breakthrough?
What am I missing?
Connect IQ data fields do not have the precision of a second by second analysis on XO server when the activity is uploaded.
Also, the effort above MPA must last at least 5-7 secs to register as a BT event on server.
How many seconds was that?

Looks like it was a bit shorter, on the order of 3s.
Would it not then have been a Near Breakthrough?
Just started using with the zwift integration but my understanding is that a near breakthrough still needs the minimum effort time to register.
Near BTs – are cases where you were able to get your power very close to MPA, but you weren’t quite able to exceed it.

Thanks chaps.
Basically what we’re saying is I should have pedalled harder for a bit longer!
