Otakam offers three performance indicators, OTK Perf, e-OTK Index and OTK Index :
– Completely new, OTK Perf is representative of the performance achieved on a cyclosportive race or a virtual race on a trainer, regardless of distance, total ascent, level of participants, weather or race conditions. OTK Perf starts at 1 for the best cyclists and is not capped.
– Your OTK Index represents your cyclosport level taking into account your best OTK Perf achieved on cyclosportives. OTK Index starts at 1 for the best cyclists and is not capped. Only the best two thirds OTK Perf are taken into account, so that you won’t be penalized by a counter-performance, a puncture, a fall, or if you have done a race with friends or family members. A weighting factor takes into account the number of participants and the date of the events.
– Your e-OTK Index is calculated in the same way, but only takes into account the OTK Perf on virtual races on trainers.
The OTK and e-OTK Index are used to compile real and virtual OTK Rankings over a given period of time, calendar year or 36 months (see Question/Answer on OTK Rankings). These are the first global cyclosport rankings.
