Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What factors influence the Match score?
The score is calculated based on three main criteria: traffic levels, the intensity of climbs, and the type of surface.
Does a lower Match score mean the route is "bad"?
Not necessarily. A lower score simply means the route contains more sections (orange) that deviate from your ideal settings, such as more hills or busier roads.
