Hi guys
I actually started another thread a while back. Allota.... [Danger Powers] People gave me great advise. Long story short, this is for my son, he has a spez tarmac sl6, 105 cassette, 11 speed.
I tried out a wheel on trainer today, it was not great, very bouncy and no real connectivity. Its a unit which sold for 6k, selling for 4k, but i think its time, you buy once, cry once, budget is 13k, and i would like whoever i buy from, to do the Payflex, just so it eases the purchase pain. I could also do the Discovery card / bank thing, probably at Sportsmans. I dont have miles built up, so lets forget about the 15th of each month.....
I have Googles my eyes out, Elite, Wahoo, Tacx, on some threads on this forum they mention, dont use small gears, all gears, might have to adjust derailleur, i dont want to do that, and i will tell my mini me to just use some of the gears.
Who has crazy deals on now, should i look for something which has a cassette? I see 105 Shimano cassettes are under a grand. Are there cool bundle deals where you get a heart rate strap with.
For context, he trains hard, he has my old Huawei gt 3 watch, which actually works like a bomb and lasts 2 weeks per charge, shows him all his stats, but i guess it wont really help with any of the smart trainers?
The space we have for him to start this is upstairs, all alone, there is a tv there, i guess i can get a mega long hdmi cable and hook that up to his laptop, i3 ssd, should be fine.
But which would you choose, a wahoo core, get 15% discount and sportsmans, or an Elite, maybe find with a cassette, or any other make? Would be nice to get something which has the front wheel riser block thing and maybe other stuff included. Thanx in advance guys!
