Great recap. Lots of things happening!

Any new information regarding the Vitruvian trainer? I haven’t heard much from the company lately…
No updates regarding the app or anything else.

Weird choice for Ergatta to chose USB as Concept2 seems to be abandoning USB connection on their monitors. There is a PM5 version six in the works, and last year C2 removed the wired connection from their current ErgData app completely. As PM5 hardware updates just happen unannounced, Ergatta might find itself in quite a tight spot. And yes, a $600 dedicated accessory is way to much to fit on a $1100 machine.

Maybe its because of the latency with BLE? I notice it with EXR and its bother me so much, as I dont' enjoy the experience
