Van Rysel D100 Direct Drive Turbo Trainer
มุมมอง 1.1Kวันที่ผ่านมา
Today we look at the D100 Turbo Trainer from Van Rysel. Their cheapest direct drive home trainer. Compatible with Zwift, Bkool and many others, Bluetooth only. No cadence. Similar in spec to a Tacx Flow except it is Wheel off, so no tyre slippage or excessive noise to worry about. www.decathlon.co.uk/p/interactive-turbo-trainer-d100/_/R-p-338332?mc=8830222 How to spin down/calibrate Van Rysel D...

Today we take a Quick look at Van Rysel Aero Socks. I have no wind tunnel data, will they make you faster? Maybe. The ribbed material is similar to that found on skinsuits, this is meant to trip the air slowing it down and leaving the air attached for longer to reduce pressure drag behind the leg. www.decathlon.co.uk/p/road-cycling-socks-900-aero/_/R-p-341723

Thanks, was afraid to break this (Kid's bike).
Obrigado pelo vídeo! Eu já estava desistindo de tentar abrir essa lanterna até que resolvi pesquisar no Google e encontrei seu vídeo 🙏
Thanks for recommendation!
Damn I live in Glasgow it's very hilly I was thinking this bike is handy but maybe I shouldn't get this considering I'm around hills
In the centre you would be fine 😉 if you value your knees get a geared bike instead.
I've ridden this bike for 3 years now, just for anyone interested: the geometry is quite aggressive. For an endurance bike, the head tube is very very short and even comparable with some aero road bikes such as the Canyon Aeroad. Endurance bikes usually have a 2-3 cm longer head tube. So if you want to use this bike purely for endurance, keep in mind you'd probably have to put your stem at max height on the steerer tube with 0 or 1 spacers on top. If you want to go more aero, you can lower the handlebars by a full 2 cm if your body can handle it! My bikefitter was very surprised by how aggressive the geometry of this "endurance" bike is
These look suspiciously like look 😅
I know what you mean 😉 good design
Even after calibration, my van rysel trainer display a wrong speed and distance , any idea ? (The resistance seems to be correct)
Hi, what app are you using it to train on? Try force closing and reopening the app, make sure the firmware is up to date. It is always made up speed anyway, you are not moving. ;0)
@@TheDecathlonMan i use no app such as zwift, juste a garmin edge directly connected to the trainer.
Interesting, use with a head unit is not supported on the D100. Unless they have updated the firmware and not told anyone.
@@TheDecathlonMan oh ok, wasn't thinking that it was different from using it with zwift... strange. I contacted them and they did not explained me that
Give it a go with an app and let me know how it goes.
Can you use the mount for locks that are not kryptonite, like on guard? My mount broke and finsing it hard to find a new mount.
Depends on the diameter of the shackle try here amzn.eu/d/05rFKQMT
hi, is this trainer usable if you’re not using a paid app like zwift?
It will work with any training app that supports bluetooth, Mywhoosh is free at the mo. It is a smart trainer so to get the most out of it it is best to use it with an app, there is some resistance if you wanted to use it for a warm up before a TT.
turned the volume all the way up, and still he was difficult to hear
Totally agree, think the lapel mic was stuck under my hoodie.
love this pal 💪💪💪 great work !!
yet another banger from the man the myth the legend: the decathlon man!!!!!
Can they be replaced with BOA? Does BOA fit into the same slot?
No, they have a different plastic carrier which is sewn into the shoe.
What brand of shoes can we use with those pedals?......Thanks!!
Any brand with a 3 hole fixing on the sole. The cleats are Look Keo specific though and are not compatible with SPD-SL th-cam.com/video/T4BsJiiWEfs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UzmZJrgcTX5Xwamy
@@TheDecathlonMan Thank you so much!!!
Worst thing ever… Adjusting mine and then over tightening the screw. Snap! 😢
You could try using a longer bolt and big washer as a repair, if you take it into store they may sort a neater solution. Carbon assembly paste can prevent over tightening, if used in the clamp.
@@TheDecathlonMan you know what. I went to B&Q the next day, measured a longer bolt and worked a charm. 💪🏽💪🏽
Whoop whoop! Glad it helped.
I am 1.80 cm chest 96cm 75 kg , should i go with M or L you think?
I would go with the Medium, they are meant to be skin tight, if you find it restricting your arms or you have big biceps then maybe size up to the Large.
can you exchange the est520 (the eletric one) screen for an est900 screen?
If you mean the ergo 900 screen, yes. Code is 4529909, we are now on version 3, bear in mind generally the v3 screen is not compatible with any controllers that came before. Best option is to take it into store for diag and they can tell you which version you have on your hands.
Hi, i was wandering what tipe of tool are you using specificly beacouse i tried usign a lot of different Screwdrivers but i couldn't find the right one. Are you using a particolar tipe of Screwdriver in the video?
It is a 2.5mm allen key
what about weight? Original wedsite doesn't mention it?
285g in size 9
@@TheDecathlonMan oh. lighter vs Road 520. thanks
Hi, are there thru axles versions as well?
We don’t but ‘Pinhead’ do
How long would the battery last for on eco from 100% charge to 0
It would get you around 2hrs or around 50km range, bear in mind this can be increased by switching to 0 when you don’t need the assistance. Other external factors will affect the range, weight, wind, temperature, tyre pressure and route (hills)
@@TheDecathlonMan could you get 2 batterys
You could
Just bought one today, super comfortable
Hi there, did you test the Bike with mywhoosh App?
I didn’t I am afraid, I had it for a limited time only.
+1 for quality, far better than other brands i've had
Can we buy replacement inner liners/pads? What’s the sku for it?
They are not referenced I am afraid, these may help bring back life to an old helmet though www.decathlon.co.uk/p/helmet-foam-pad-set/_/R-p-328967?mc=8607937
Hi may I have the link for this conversion kit, thanks.
The parts are not referenced separately, they will come with the bike www.decathlon.co.uk/p/kids-3-5-years-2-in-1-14-inch-balance-bike-discover-500-pink/_/R-p-333346?mc=8646305&c=pink
I use them. They are great.
Which size are they and how long is the shaft?
size 39-42 and the ribbed shaft is 17cm
hey , i just wanted to ask is there any difference in safety among cheap and expensive helmets ?? i mean is expl 100 any less safer than st 500 ?
Not really, no. They are all polystyrene at the end of the day, unless you get into downhilling of course, then they are different. Some helmets will also have differing density polystyrene to absorb impact or keep the helmet together in case of high speed crashes. Most helmets are tested based on a crash of below 14mph, once you get over that speed only a full face helmet will save your noggin properly. weight, longevity and comfort change the higher up the price range you go though.
@@TheDecathlonManThanks for the quick reply , btw love your videos , keep up the good work 😃👍
Thank you, this means a lot, just trying to help
Can we have them in Savile Blue please 🙏
is it a thru axle, or a quick release?
Thru axled, 148x12 rear 110x15 front
Did you say the shifters are *not* rechargeable? What happens when the batteries run out? 🤨 Edit: OK, never mind. Just read the description. 😅
Would this fit an Elops 500 Single Speed bike?
The Elops Speed 500 has no rear rack mounts, you could use this one www.decathlon.co.uk/p/seat-post-pannier-rack-500-2023-version/_/R-p-342773 There used to be a front pannier rack available which seems to be now discontinued.
@@TheDecathlonMan Thank you.
please review the PERF500
These? th-cam.com/video/L5hvYUx0wYA/w-d-xo.html
Are these pedals compatible with adidas velosamba shoes?
They are indeed
@@TheDecathlonMan thanks
ventilation slots are missing. You will sweat into it.
It depends on how hot you run, not experienced it yet, maybe not been trying hard enough 😂😉
Hey, do you know when a MIPS version of the FCR will be available? I already asked Decathlon support, they said Van Rysel did not told them yet and I also tried to contact VR itself, but they didn't seem to have an imprint/mail... they just refer to their social media, but don't read DMs.
It will not be long, when they appear on the website it normally will be released within that month. Unless something delays release. I will keep an eye out either way.
Side strap appears unable to be adjusted to the ears. The V shape under both ears
Yep, they are stitched
Great thank you! Works on the ELOPS Long Distance 500 Electric too. Just need to press and hold the Lights button instead.
👍👌💯
Thank you very much for that quick and helpfully Video. Good Explanation about the key Features.
If i have 58 and some change for the size, should i still get the medium or would the large be more comfortable and snug?
I would go for a Medium size unless you have a lot of hair or intend to ride with a thick winter cap underneath?
@@TheDecathlonMan woops. I ordered a large one. I have a normal set of hair and planning to wear caps under from time to time. I think ill be fine, if it is really too lose, I'll exchange it. i was in rush to order thinking I'd get no reply here. Thanks anyway. (: i guess ill just have to see. The one in the video for roadr 500 is medium right?
No problem, yes, the helmet in the video is Medium, I have a 57cm head circumference and use a Medium and can still get a merino cap underneath.
Congratulation nice review !!! i bought Van rysel glasses and they are fantastic!!!...... Decathlon man ...When Will show us "Challenge bike"in action?😁...you promised
Thanks, I will do when I can get access to one again, the one I did a video on should not have been there and I took the opportunity to use it. Decathlon will not just give me a challenge bike to test for a video unfortunately.
We Will wait 👍🏻
Sorry, i really have to disagree here for a recommendation. I wonder that you don't mention the build quality, especially if you have Oakley Sutros just next to it to compare. It is very obvious the moment you pick it up. I have both models here, the white 900 perf with blue glass and 2 different Sutros and a Sutro S. The Van rysel just feel so cheap and flimsy compared to Oakleys. They are easily twisted and make terrible plastic noise then. Also even if they are lighter, they don't feel as nice on the nose and only come with one size nose piece and also don't come with a proper transport case. The glass is not as clear, seems to reflect more, darker and less contrasty than all the Oakley ones i have here. Oakley Sutros are often available under 100€ in sales and are more than worth the price. I thought the new "Perf" series would be on par with other high end glasses, but i was quite disappointed when i received them. Here in Austria they are only available in the decathlon online shop where you have to pay additional shipping, not in the stores so far.
You can disagree, that is your opinion, this is mine.
Top notch!
Love ❤
I thought PERF means perforated (as in holed) :D
Ha ha, also could have said it stands for 'perfect' felt that would have been a bit much though.
Hello im need help with turning it on, if im press the buton it show red light. Im opened it and there was led1 that was white, how to swith led color
Is it possible to share what is the standover height for this bike with the 700cc wheel? I could not find the information anywhere. TIA!
Hi There, yes the Small is 77cm, Medium is 79cm and 81cm Large.
Unfortunate that you didn't put the helmet on to top it all off
Very true, will do that next time, you can see it on my bonce in the cutaways though.
Hi, what kind of rim tape do you recommend for the original RC120 Disc wheels ? I damaged the yellow ones, if the new one makes tires easier to fit that's also a plus
I have had good results with the cloth tape, but also muc off works well, the main thing is that it is thinner than the supplied yellow rim tape. www.decathlon.co.uk/p/adhesive-rim-tape-for-12-to-29-road-bikes/_/R-p-145633
