    Your KICKR is very much a computer and indoors is where it is safe. The dust, grass and potentially moisture is just not good for any smart trainer.

    Hi There, There will be a slight vibration caused by the heavy flywheel spinning at high RPMs. Should you have any technical questions or concerns I recommend that you get in touch with one of our support agents - best channel to follow is support@wahoofitness.co.za They will be able to give you a clear answer on what is within the normal ranges with regards to sounds, vibrations or niggles. Most of these can be solved very quickly with the help of a Wahooligan expert. Cheers!

    Great question. We're actively working on this link and hope to have the first phase of the integration completed by end of February. We'll definitely keep Hubbers posted on our progress here as it is one of the most frequently asked questions on the Wahoo ELEMNT range.

    Hi Steve, The best way to simulate a specific route is using the ELEMNT or ELEMNT BOLT. You can import the GPX file into the computer and then the KICKR will simulate the actual route based on weight, power etc. You can do this with any route available in GPX format or you can import a route from STRAVA. For realistic routes that are filmed we've fallen in love with the App called FULGAZ - You can ride a range of realistic routs and there is an APPLE TV app for the product making connection to TV very easy. Cheers! Wahooligan Chris

    Hi Shaper, The KICKR CORE is expected to land 1'st October and retail at R13,999 incl VAT. This is a conservatively proposed price as we simply do not know what the exchange rate will do. The good news is that we do not expect the price to be higher than this and at best the price might come down slightly. Should you have a pre-order in place you will receive a refund on the difference when it ships. Key differences to note vs KICKR '18: - Ships without RPM Cadence - Ships without a cassette Will however have the same silent drive that comes with the KICKR 2018

    Hello Rudolph, Thanks for considering the Wahoo KICKR. It will be the best buy you ever make Regarding the differences. Wahoo simply made minor improvements on a bullet proof product that does not require much change. The have however made the following changes based on customer feedback: - The KICKR 4 2018 will be silent. Based on feedback from customers this was a major point of improvement to compete against the sound of the NEO. - The heavier flywheel makes the true road inertia a bit more realistic. - Adjusted carry handle for compatibility. The other points you have made already works with the KICKR i.e axle compatibility, Headwind/Climb integration. So whether you buy a KICKR 2017 / 2018 there are minor differences and either way you have a bulletproof, solid, pain cave machine.

    Support calls... I predict MANY people blaming their indoor trainers and not their device or software.
  17. Christian van Zyl
    New products may launch... But indoor trainers will only realistically make it to shelves by northern hemisphere winter (October) to capitalise on the Trainer season sales. I would not hold my breath for discounted deals very soon... I would keep an eye on the new product launches.
  18. Christian van Zyl
    Done... I'm doing it.

    Fox Ascent bibs are lekker too.

    I recall this guy saying exactly the same words...

    If they had a choice... These poor prisoners we call pro cyclists: 1995 We all know that if they had a choice they would all be using Cateye 2004 We all know that if they had a choice they would all be using Polar 2018 We all know that if they had a choice they would all be using Garmin Looking forward to how things change in the next couple of years...

    Guys guys guys... We can not disregard approval from the pro's completely. They pay for nothing they use, just like other sport stars. Cricket, tennis etc... If we are consistent, we will end up being sceptics on all products used by pros just because they got it for free... It does not mean they use sub par products in their attempt to be world champions. In many cases the slightest disadvantage can mean losing out.

    Sagan Approves... And Marcel Kittle... And our first commonwealth medalist, Henri Schoeman... This is a great bike PC.

    4K not required, I simply run the 4'th generation Apple TV.

    Depending on where you are shipping CWC asks R100 -R150. Buycycle free delivery on everything Site Wide. Sorry to say, but the devil is in the detail. Also, with Buycycle no grey imports EVER, so you are guaranteed to get you local warrantees.
