Default Power Meter

Are you a Pro who can climb 12% at 15 mph?

Which professional cyclist can climb 12% at 24 km/h?
Do you mean for 1 minute?

That seems to require about 10 W/kg
Or maybe this calculator is wrong: BikePower-0.33:
grade of hill = 12.0% headwind = 0.0 kph
rolling friction coeff = 0.0047 BM rate = 1.40 W/kg
air resistance coeff = (0.2670, 0)
efficiency: transmission = 98.0% human = 24.9%

What's the required W/kg based on your calculations
(and which input data do you use)?
