Overdrive's FE figures generally are on the higher side as they test them under conditions close to ideal. On the other hand, ACI measures the FE values under very harsh conditions and generally the figures quoted by ACI are at least 20% less than the OD figures.

Ultimately, everything depends on how they choose to measure the FE with varied riding habits and habitat.
