    Tried it out and impressed. I immediately noticed "look and feel" UI issues that Zwift could sue and get an injunction on. But then reading other commentary elsewhere made me think this is actually being funded by Zwift itself as an R&D platform to drive more esports aspects into the market, without the potential instability or non-refined issues affecting the Zwift production product.

      From what I've been able to tell it started as separate from zwift, but I'll check with my sources, and then recently Zwift and IV now have some sort of relationship. I'm not sure of the exact specifics but maybe I'll be able to get my source to either disclose some of this information or come on here and post.

    Well done. I'm looking forward to giving this a shot. Sorry if I missed this, but does it upload to Strava and can you build custom workouts? Please do more videos on this platform. I think it has potential. I'm not much of a racer and really don't care how many people are on at the same time. I don't really take part in the social aspect of Zwift. Also, for me, Zwift is a little to game looking.

      Yes, uploading to Strava working similar like with a Zwift.

      Yes it uploads to Strava. I will highlight some of those in my next video thanks for the update. Sorry I've been moving, a new video will be up soon.

    For some reason he didn't mentioned that Indievelo is the only one that offers a "virtual shifting" just touching the keys + or - on keyboard. The big vantage in that is you can use any Carrefour (or Walmart) bike on the Smart trainer, you don't need to have fiscal gears, so, you can keep your road training bike out of your smart trainer, AND, there's no consume in cassete and etc... Only Indievelo has that!

      I wasn't aware of that. Is that the resistance/slope/trainer difficulty feature? Didn't even think to use it like that, I've been using it purely like zwift. Great tip

      Exactly... Indievelo don't need extra hardware... Just an old keyboard...
