I'd say definitely get something with bluetooth that pairs with the software to adjust difficulty. Spend at least that much. I started with a cheap wheel-on bluetooth trainer. Loved it, saw fitness gains, then upgraded to a top of the line trainer. As a busy dad with a job, wife, and kids, the convenience of being able to get in a quick ride after dinner is fantastic. Also, now that I telework, I can get in easy spins while attending boring meetings!
Good to hear the turbo is working well for you! I love it in the winter 👍🏽
Wheel on trainers can also be smart. Wahoo kicked snap is an example.
The types of trainer should be:
Dumb trainer - Wheel on
Smart trainer - Wheel on
Smart trainer - direct drive
Great video! However wheel-on turbo trainers can also be smart and interractive(Erg/Sim modes) like Saris M2, Kicker Snap e.t.c. On the other hand not all direct-drive turbo trainers are smart or interactive. Some like Magene T100 only measure power but are otherwise non-interractive.
another great video; really useful and covered the main points. I'm trying to decide between a Wahoo Kickr Core and the standard Kickr. It's probably going to come down to price, TBH. I've considered the Zwift Hub too but all my gear is Wahoo so I'll likely stick with it.
Thanks Jourdain that helped a lot. Just what I needed
Glad to hear it!
Great review
Thanks for te information regarding on Turbo Trainer
No worries
Be sure to hook up to a wide screen tv makes all the difference. Riding on a laptop sucks
Super helpful video, thank you. To be clear you do NOT need a power or cadence meter on the Kickr Core when using Zwift? Thanks!
Correct. The kickr core has power and cadence built in. Then zwift calculates your speed based on various factors.
So all you need is the turbo trainer, no extra sensors 👍🏼
You are not mentioning wheel-on smart trainers. I get that they're not as good as a direct drive trainer, but they're a good starting point
Yeah, I used one for a year or so before I got a smart trainer, i probably should have mentioned them. But I would honestly say that Smart trainers are in a whole different category and if you want to keep it up long term... that's the way to go.
