Thanks, Tom. This bike use spectrum may also be circular to more easily account for more ranges being added. In this case, ranges could be defined from the center out and easily connect the dots to define a coverage area. The coverage area line could then be more jagged and not need a smooth line to connect one axis to another. Each axis, from the center outward, could be a numeric range such as 0 at the center to 10 at the outer edge. A next step may be just defining what ranges to measure. There could also be primary axis and lighter weight secondary and tertiary axis added as desired. This may be worthy of starting a new thread.
