Interesting question I use my 830 on all IDT sessions on IV/TPV for Disco points mainly - On all the seesions recorded in Connect it has my speed & power stats not sure if its getting it off the app or the trainer - I would imagine its from the smart trainer

I agree - I think both TR & ZWIFT are gonna see a lot of customers migrating over - Its really a good deal considering what you get. Its still not as good as ZWIFT but in a year or 2 i think it will be better

Had this issue for my wife to get her points, i got an old FitBit IONIC which seemed to work fine but then got a VERSA 2 for cheap and it works perfect once linked - Just make sure the model you get can track and record your ave HR on a session as some of the smaller models track while you riding but dont record it too upload afterwards

If you ride in a group - Then ride at the back

I agree on the pacer, its no where near as good as ZWIFT. Been doing lots of Z2 work with Olie - Very fast on the downhills and extremly slow on the uphills. Its actually a challenge to stay with him. The pack dynamics just don't seem to work properly at all. When a nice group forms on the front it always seems to speed up and eventually drop the pacer, then the gtroup disintergrates to 1 or 2 riders because most were bots who jump in and out for the route, so i always try stay behind the pacer, but you need to keep your eye on the distance he is ahead as in different sections he suddenly speeds up and will drop you in a matter of seconds. One minute you sitting riding tempo on his wheel and the next you in a full out sprint trying to get on his wheel again.

You forgot - Water tables every 500m each with topless girls and a pole dancer

Insane - I'd like to know how may riders have actually paid for this - Even social elite rich dudes on MTB's would surely laugh at it

Look at the TITAN range - For me they are the best bang for your buck in terms of brand new

Mine hasn't updated still reflects IV - My pc tells me its all a conspiracy this whole thing of TP buying IV

I messed around in it this afternoon - Pretty cool - I uploaded my modders route from a few weekends back - wow !! some of the inclines i could hardly pedal but i suppose one needs to get the settings dialed in But I also loaded the pacer activity from IV - basically feels exactly the same. Haha the graphics really suck though - I was riding through a tunnel only to rise up through the roof onto another road above - Dont really care for the graphics as long as i get the training session in at the zone I want. Nice alternative

Daaaamit ! - Just as i was getting into it, they come along and spoil the party. Oh well - I suppose Rainmaker is right - these platforms have to start charging at some point or they end up in the trash can. At least now IndieVelo will have long term sustainability I'll run it until they start charging & then re-evaluate - Not interested in TrainingPeaks - Intervals.icu gives me the data i need. But i suppose that will get sold off or start charging a fee as well sometime in the future. I only wish they would offer switch on switch off monthly subs like ZWIFT for those months its not beng used. Maybe a tier system 1. Full Training Peaks premium + Virtual training and racing = Full suite 2. Virtual training and racing = 1/2 suite 3. virtual training = 1/3 suite its all about options But looking at TrainingPeaks pricing, the prem fee is about $10.42 / month if you pay annually - If that includes IndieVelo, well then sign me up Scotty

Well it works the same as car thieves - everytime new tech comes out to protect or track your vehicle, thieves will find a way round it. Cyclits will do the same to stay in the game. The banned list will eventually get so long that riders will only be allowed to drink water eventually

They say there are only 2 types of cyclists - those who have fallen and those who will fall

TREK lifetime warranty on frame should take care of that
