shaka Posted January 8, 2019 Share Hi All I understand the new Kickr is a lot quiter, but besides that, are there any other major differences in the 2017 Gen 3 model and the 2018 Gen 4 model? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpedro Posted January 8, 2019 Share I think it also has a heavier flywheel that makes it feel a lot more realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furbz Posted January 8, 2019 Share i've owned the Kickr 2 and Kickr 4. get the Kickr 4 its extremely quiet compared. The loudest component is now your bicycle chain - so clean it and invest in a really good lube.the flywheels extra weight does make a big difference in in-game feel. Gradient changes are more subtle and less jerky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lechatnoir Posted January 8, 2019 Share if last night's IDT session was anything to go by, my Kickr 4 will be headed back to where it came from... for the 3rd time (meaning a 4th unit) in as many months... latest issue is a very noticeable 'knock' at about 2 o'clock on each power stroke. Giving it another bash this evening and will assess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving it another bash this evening and will assess so, the innocuous knock on the down-stroke turned into an unholy cacophony when I got on again... this time 2wieltjies was right... a google search found the exact symptom. Took the trainer apart, adjusted a few things (still need to get some loctite), and the noise is gone. I can't say if the problem is solved though.... Time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
