Here is a quick video done with Mywhoosh, no sound, just something quickly thrown together. https://youtu.be/kmCJliBiIs4 Edited March 16, 2023 by Dexter-morgan _David_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theunissa Posted December 11, 2022 Share I recently joined. Just finished 25km free trail Friday. Did my ftp also. I'm using a saris m2 that I got from here second hamd. I'm using a cheap Chinese brand slick Tyre I installed on mtd rims I got a few years ago. In the beginning it was odd to use the setup. Speed and power felt wrong. Then i played with the power factor setting. And ended up at 100% aka max power. And it works good for me. It's not the same as riding outside. But what is does do is get me to push harder. Because I'm very very competitive. So in that sense I works well for me. Because I stay 30km out of pta Nad not clubs or any tracks close to me. And if you just ride on your own. You don't push yourself vs riding in a group. U got it to cast to my TV via a cheap cast device. Since TV box to laggy. It works good enough. It take getting used to. And I will still rather do outside. Also my tab s5e is ant compatible so I can add all my garmin sensors.

Duane_Bosch Posted December 13, 2022 Share Seems like a nice budget smart bike. Rather than the somewhat ridiculous KickR bike. Hopefully this is the first of many. https://expressfitness.co.za/product/magene-mg70-smart-spinning-bike/ Edited December 13, 2022 by Duane_Bosch Dexter-morgan and ChrisF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HdB Posted December 13, 2022 Share Not sure how well this bike would work with Zwift or similar, when just riding around. It seems to have electronic resistance control, but not virtual gears? It could work well for workouts, but I'd definitely want to read a few trusted reviews Duane_Bosch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duane_Bosch Posted December 13, 2022 Share Yes indeed. So it's basically a spinning bike with a power meter. I looked at a youtube review and it also appears to have been made from tin foil and 2nd hand cardboard boxes. Apologies for wasting everyone's time. As you were.
