madmarc Posted May 20, 2020 Share It shouldn't have to be this difficult - Box should say don't buy this if you like Campagnolo Correct - In fact their boxes should also say - "If you not prepared to do a min of 3 warranty replacements then don't buy this trainer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted May 20, 2020 Share Correct - In fact their boxes should also say - "If you not prepared to do a min of 3 warranty replacements then don't buy this trainer" Uhmmmmm .... sounds like like you might have had some issues with yours .... MANY happy customers out there I HAVE, and I will continue to promote the Wahoo products to my friends. aiyaaz and Dexter-morgan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you can make a plan, but making a plan is seldom the right way ChrisF and eddy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexter-morgan Posted May 20, 2020 Share I got a gen 1 as a package deal with a road bike, I am very happy even thinking of selling and upgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timdm Posted May 20, 2020 Share So my Kickr Core just packed up yesterday in the middle of a ride... Stopped broadcasting power/speed/cadence despite showing it's connected.Can't get it to read speed on the app, my Garmin 520, or Trainerroad. Sadly Wahoo says it has a 6 week backlog servicing units due to the lockdown!Anyone had a similar experience or have any advice? So desperate, don't think I'll survive lockdown without!

Wayne pudding Mol Posted May 20, 2020 Share 2.2kms - all it took for me to realise this idt thing is not for me - great for others but I don’t want more apps, more tech and more disconnect with reality - I don’t train, I ride. Its a training tool and has its place, just not in my life Panic buy but on a cwc special - lbs has taken it off my hands for more than I paid Edited May 20, 2020 by Waynemol BigDL, Jewbacca, Duane_Bosch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially where you are. Stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to... Those waterfalls aren't worth it! I've taken a break from the IDT these last couple of weeks. Not having to balance feels weird now that I can go outside ChrisF and Wayne pudding Mol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an internal bearing issue. They said I could still ride it but it drives me crazy with the noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_P Posted May 23, 2020 Share What sort of temperature readings do you guys get when doing a spindown on a Kickr or Kickr core on the Wahoo app? After riding for approx 30 mins and doing a spindown, I get readings of 40-45 degC. Would be interested to hear what other guys are getting.

Anton Kruyshaar Posted May 23, 2020 Share Just picked up my Kickr Core and has two problems right out of the box, it have a large lump on the pulley wheel that shows up under the belt and the pulley wheel makes a scraping sound when it passes under the plastic covers that cover the inner workings of the belt. I have spoken to the bike shop that I purchased it from and they say they are running skeleton staff and that there is Noone in the warrentee department. I must just wait for things to Get better then they will assist me. Very annoying that relatively premium equipment has issues like this out of the box.
