Garmin Tacx Neo 2T Trainer Review

#indoortraining #indoortrainer #cycling #garmin
This is an initial impressions review of the Garmin Tacx Neo 2T Smart Trainer. Overall I am liking this trainer quite a bit, though I'm not training that much on it now as the weather has gotten better and going outside and attacking hills more or less. But I will be back on it more for the fall / winter months or if weather gets bad. This is a fairly big upgrade to my previous trainer, and a smart one at that (no pun intended XD).
Time Stamps:
0:00 - Introduction
1:12 - Unboxing
11:34 - Installing a Shimano 11 Speed Cassette (not included with the Trainer)
16:23 - Mounting my Tri-bike
20:44 - The "Rumble" feature
26:38 - Concluding Thoughts
I had meant to upload this earlier in May 2021; but with work, training, and life getting in the way, I only got to editing this on the July 4th holiday.

Hi. Nice review. How do you still like the trainer? Any issues yet with the free hub yet? The Tacx is the best from all other aspects but it is know for their issues with it and the fact there’s no easy way to do maintenance on them?

I still like the trainer a lot! I have not had issues with the free hub thus far. As long as you have your cassette properly installed to the free hub, there shouldn't be any major issues - the biggest problem I see people do is not having their cassette fully into the free hub and torqued to the right specification.
