It took me just under to 2 hours to understand and assemble the bike only to find out the front chain ring is bent. First bike delivered in torn box had rear bracket exposed, dented, chipped. So know I'll await the third bike with knowledge of how to assemble. I'll time myself and see if I can match your time on the next go around. Cheers!
@@txlangster6276 that’s mad, that’s the second horror story I’ve heard today about bikes getting delivered. Sorry to that, hopefully your up and going soon. I’m counting my blessings mine seemed to arrive in good condition 🙏
just got mine on friday as my old bike I used on the trainer basically gave up the ghost after 10 years of hard sweaty use !! set it up and then rode and 80W it said felt like 200W and asked Zqift forum and forgot to reccaliberate my Zwift kickr core, now love it as so few parts are stressed it. !
yep those silver screw things no idea either, the main problem I had was moving from QR axle to thru axle I never used before and keeps coming loose !!
Ya know what, now that ya mentioned it, I never calibrated mine yet and sometimes it feels like that. It will be the first thing I do when I get on it next. Never even thought of it 🫣
@@derekfeehan nor did I as had the current trainer for 2 months and just presumed all fine. However I was like averaging 120W power and HR of 160 !! not that unfit, at 160 normally 250-275W. Someone on zwift forum suggested that and the videos never mention it especially if using an old trainer !
Probably have the driest winter now that you went and got the turbo 😂 savage set up, doh to be fair 💯 , right tighty left, losey. I think all of ireland uses that one 😂,ill have to join u on swift for a few races 💥👏👏
Nice one , great piece of kit from what I’ve seen , And you don’t have to worry about rain , punctures or forgetting your multitool.😉 few races on zwift ?
@TheFr4z0r yeah I think the full package was only a few months ago and the few wks you just need the bike if you have a compatible kickr turbo. I think 🤣
It’s captivating, just like when tourists are over visiting and see a brick wall, all you get is “WOW” 🤣 neck buff is getting ready for an appearance. It’s about that time
Had it within 3 days, which was pretty good to be fair. Got the fan as well, it came separately within 5 days. One delivery charge though. Had a few spins on it now. Works a treat 👌
No regrets. I’m loving it. Works a treat, handlebars control everything, no fear of pushing hard on it. Seems bomb proof (touch wood) …If you offered me my money back I wouldn’t change it 🤙
@@derekfeehan that’s brilliant on that I’ll order it Derek and see how I get on thanks a mill for getting back to me so quick great to have an honest no bull review on it 👍👍 keep the videos coming
The postman has just delivered 🤣🤣 with the day that’s out there today happy days scrappy doo ain’t looking forward to building this at least I know where to look for the through axle lol couldn’t resist 🤣🤣
how's it been going mate? are you loving it? how you find it for racing? just getting back into zwift, so ordered one. hoping its way better than the ghetto machine i'm on
I envy you! My Zwift Ride was delivered, but with two left-side crank arms! So I can't mount pedals. Who knows how long it will take for this problem to be solved... :(
@@derekfeehan I have no idea what they're doing on the assembly line. The winter season is just around the corner, tomorrow is literally the last day I can ride outside. This is frustrating.
Class Derek. You will hours of fun with that
Tell Niamh I’ll be over during the week with a bike and helmet, I remember her telling me she wanted to be in a vid 🤣
She is retracting statements here saying she just wants a shout out😂😂
Award winning video and narrative, Derek. You'd be a natural on the big screen. Thanks for the tip - read the instructions.
Haha somehow I think you’re having a laugh 🤣 I think I should just stick to cycling and not a ‘how to’ vid 🤣

Nice one Derek, get yourself a fan for the indoor spins well worth it. At least you will be in control of the headwind for a change 😂
It would make a nice change 🤣 hope you’re keeping well pal 🤙
Great video and nice bit of kit
Sound pal, loving it. 😀🤙

Espero comprarme el mío el próximo mes. Estoy deseando vivir un unboxing tan caótico como el tuyo👍
Haha best of luck with it, it’s an excellent piece of kit, let me know how ya get on 🤙
@@derekfeehan ¡¡Comprada!!. Me llegará entre los días 8 y 9.
Brilliant, just in time for winter. Enjoy pal 🚲💨
Great thanks for your sharing, it seems to be pretty esay juste have to follow instructions and be patient 😊
That’s exactly it, just take your time and you’ll put it a lot quicker together than I did 🤣
Probably have the driest winter now that you went and got the turbo 😂 savage set up, doh to be fair 💯 , right tighty left, losey. I think all of ireland uses that one 😂,ill have to join u on swift for a few races 💥👏👏
I bought that turbo for everyone, we’ll have a fantastic winter now 🤣 couldn’t resist a race yesterday, lost a lung already 🤣
😂😂 thats the shot , you will be a weapon come spring 💥💯💯
💯% Debbie was in the background doing all the work. 😂
Look at the hands, definitely Deb doing the work 🤣
Nice one , great piece of kit from what I’ve seen , And you don’t have to worry about rain , punctures or forgetting your multitool.😉 few races on zwift ?
Exactly, covers all the above 🤣 yeah definitely back racing. I need it, fitness is gone just cycling, I need a bit of competitiveness to keep on track
Been looking at getting one of these for ages, order placed. Winter is coming 😂
And it’s going to be a brutal winter I’d say, we didn’t even get a summer this year. I’ll see ya on zwift for a spin 🤣
For ages? I think they just released it a few months ago 🤷🏽♂️
@TheFr4z0r yeah I think the full package was only a few months ago and the few wks you just need the bike if you have a compatible kickr turbo. I think 🤣
Good luck with it
Thanks a lot 😀🤙
That was like watching the special Olympics. I thought you were going to have to call Dave to help you. Lol
It’s captivating, just like when tourists are over visiting and see a brick wall, all you get is “WOW” 🤣 neck buff is getting ready for an appearance. It’s about that time
Nice unit ! If you move it over a bit you can grab a beer while your riding 🍺 😂 Hope you enjoy it Cheers 👍
That’s noted 🤣🍺…..would you believe I have it a week and can’t get on it. Dying the last while, can’t shake it 🥴
Great video Derek. How much does this piece of kit cost?. Looks the business.
€1300 all in. If you have a compatible turbo, it’s €800 for the bike. Should really have said that in it 🤣
Hey Derek love the trainer, how long was the delivery time to Ireland?
Had it within 3 days, which was pretty good to be fair. Got the fan as well, it came separately within 5 days. One delivery charge though. Had a few spins on it now. Works a treat 👌
Thanks for letting me know I’m going to order one myself 🙏
@@jkspcoy well worth it pal 🤙
Derek how did you get on with the Zwift bike on the verge of getting one but just a bit unsure what do you think of them 👍
No regrets. I’m loving it. Works a treat, handlebars control everything, no fear of pushing hard on it. Seems bomb proof (touch wood) …If you offered me my money back I wouldn’t change it 🤙

@patrickorourke152 appreciate it pal, might catch ya on zwift 🚲💨 have fun with it
@@derekfeehanI will lad I’ll give you a shout when I get it with our winters I’d say we will be on it a fair bit 👍👍👍

It’s a brilliant bit of kit, can’t fault it. You’ll really enjoy it pal 😀🤙
Thanks a bunch
Thanks for watching Dave 🤙
Well you made that look easy but check all the boxes next watch we won't have much rain now because you got this fancy equipment 😅
That’s problem true, we’ll get a brilliant summer now 🤣
Did you not get a cog v2 with your ride?
No mate, it wasn’t till a few days after I actually realised that. Bit disappointing to be honest. I thought it would come with it. 🤷♂️
Same as got mine today spent 20 mins looking for it
@@doublejumpvideogames.... I don’t feel too bad now 🤣
Was going to feature this video on Zwift Insider, but it won't allow embedding. Just a heads up!
I must look into, thanks pal 🤙
Great fun. Better than Jimmy Carr … what processed you 😂😂
Jimmy has nothing on me 🤣
I envy you! My Zwift Ride was delivered, but with two left-side crank arms! So I can't mount pedals. Who knows how long it will take for this problem to be solved... :(
You’re joking, how does that even happen? 🥴 hope you get sorted soon pal. It does look a serious bit of kit, can’t wait to get going on it 👊
@@derekfeehan I have no idea what they're doing on the assembly line. The winter season is just around the corner, tomorrow is literally the last day I can ride outside. This is frustrating.
I feel your pain 🫣 hopefully I’ll see ya on zwift soon 😀🤙
They must have seen you dance. Thought you had two left feet 😂
@@dukekaboom4105 good one. 🤣
