How is average power calculated for a bike ride if you don’t have a power meter? Thank you.

+26@Nbwilli Additionally the bike weight and bike type will be used for the estimation. The bike type isn't even mentioned in the linked article, but MTBs will produce a much higher estimation for the same speed than i.e. time trial bikes when there is no gradient involved.
+2OK, that’s what I thought but how can my power be the same as a smaller person who went slower on the same ride? Neither of us have identified our specific road bike models…
+26This could be due to wrong setup data for one or both of you for the mentioned variables.
