Jawor is a climb of 4.6 kilometers (category 2). Jawor tops out at 700 m above sea level. It is located in Bóbrka, województwo podkarpackie, Polska. The average gradient is 6.7% with a maximum of 12.2%. The climb has 309 meters of elevation gain.
Difficulty analysis: This Category 2 climb is moderately hard, mainly because of its manageable length (4.6 km) and its average gradient of 6.7%. The real difficulty lies in its irregularity: a steep section at 11% between 1.5 and 2.0 km is the crux of the climb.
How to manage the effort:
1. Handling the 11% kick: Ride the first 1.5 km at a steady tempo to save your legs for the steepest part. Be ready to shift gears and rhythm when the gradient hits 11%.
2. Recovering after the kick: Use the following 5% stretch (km 2.0-2.5) to get your breathing back under control and find a smoother pedal stroke before the steady 7-8% ramps in the middle of the climb.
3. Keeping a steady effort: The final part of the climb (km 3.5-4.6) is less demanding at 5%. Save something in the tank so you can hold a high power output over this faster finish.
