Not if training is done with ERG mode OFF. Even the easy workout days are done in 2-3 gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only do free rides on the IDT, thus constantly using the gears. Either way ... worth noting the limitations .... More importantly, VERY good to see the price evolution ....

Probably coz it's yellow. https://expressfitness.co.za/product/horizon-gr7-indoor-cycle/ I only ever use Zwift for workouts so the lack of gears doesn't bother me. My daughter does spinning classes at the local gym. So rather than get her a bike to go onto the smart trainer at home I might unload the trainer and get something like this.

Red Bird Posted March 14, 2023 Share Has anyone had issues with efficiency mode on Zwift. The webview process (seen in task manager) goes into efficiency mode automatically which causes Zwift to crash. I have switched off all efficiency mode settings under the system and power settings on Windows and changed settings on Zwift to max power. Basically on best performance settings everywhere. But it still does not prevent efficiency mode. Any help and advice please.

I got emil feedback from him about the HRM. Yes, unfortunately, to participate in the study we would need you to have and use a Polar H10 HR monitor. This doesn’t mean that Polar is necessarily any better than others, but the H10 strap allows us to record RR-interval data and to minimize the error in HRV recording we decided to keep the type of HR monitor consistent. But we had a lot of interest in the study and have already reached our recruitment numbers. If it is okay with you, can I log your contact information and reach out when we need participants for future studies? At this point we have tentative plans to conduct a similar project around November and it would be great to have some fit athletes like yourself 🤥 to contact.

Be4dawn Posted May 21, 2023 Share Hi all Has anyone had this problem in the past. I'm doing the annika langvad MTB workout series on Zwift atm. But the program doesn't log that I've completed the workouts. its shows in companion app that I've done them but not in Zwift. Im using a laptop with windows to run zwift. Any Ideas on how to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mecheng89 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Hi to all running Hubbers! I managed to get hold of a treadmill for a steal, so now I have the opportunity to use the treadmill and run on Zwift as well. I'm aware that one requires a running pod/cadence meter of some sorts to use zwift, but I just learned that some of the higher end Forerunner watches work as a cadence sensor too. The website mentions 3 compatible watches. I refer specifically to the 945 model. I have the 955 model. So I'm wondering whether my more recent model will work. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnavel Posted May 22, 2023 Share Never tried it with a watch, but if the 945 is listed, then it is likely that the 955 will also work. I use a run pod with my setup to allow for the communication with Zwift. It actually works surprisingly well - only just set it up and it is definitely helping with this cold and dark weather. Much easier and safer to just jump on the treadmill for a quick workout once my son is asleep at 19:00. mecheng89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehosefat Posted May 22, 2023 Share If the watch itself doesn't work, wearing any of the HRM-Run, HRM-Tri or HRM-Pro chest straps will provide cadence and power numbers. mecheng89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fortunate to have the pro strap. But I know from a recent update, one doesn't need the strap anymore to give a power number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
