kjind Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Hi All I have a question. I just bought a wahoo kickr and the setup is done on Zwift.The resistance seems too much. The harder I peddle the more it becomes to the point where I can almost stand on the pedal. Is this a setting issue?

The harder I peddle the more it becomes to the point where I can almost stand on the pedal. Is this a setting issue?I had the same issue. Doing a spin down using the Wahoo utility app sorted it for me. I do a spin down every week.
kjind Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 I have tried that several times. the minute is start a training ride (in any app) the problem starts
Markellis Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 That's odd, I'm guessing you already tried unplugging the Kickr for a while and plugging not back in and doing a spin down?
kjind Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Yup. Spin down seem to work well. The minute I start any training ride the resistance builds up a lot.In the Wahoo app and ZwiftI have tried changing the difficulty setting but it doesn't help.Can it be a hardware issue?
Markellis Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Best bet is to message user Christian van Zyl. He is the Wahoo man. Good luck
Land Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Hi, had the same experience when I got my trainer recently and I started up a workout in swift with ERG mode enabled. Basically came to a grinding halt, did some googling and read this article which does a good job explaining ERG mode and the dreaded 'spiral of death' - the attached video is also very informative. Hope this helps ???????? https://zwiftinsider.com/erg-mode-in-zwift/
kjind Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 Hi I figured it out. I downloaded the wrong Wahoo app.All working now. Thanks for the help.
Jaco-fiets Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 When using Zwift I have it set that my power source is my stages and my smart trainer is just my controllable. Do I still have to do a spin down or calibration of kickr. How do I calibrate my kickr in Zwift anyway? On trainer road I use my stages as power source as well but I still calibrate my kickr
Stiggy Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Hi guys Has anyone experienced "No signal" issues.On the screen to select supporting device, Zwift recognises my Wahoo Snap 2, but there is a bold "No signal" across it. Also on the setting page, there is no place to adjust trainer difficulty. Are these two issues related?

madbradd Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Hi I have not set up my Ant+, only using bluetooth What device are you using? full bluetooth compatibility was not an option for ages and was recently introduced (I used to need an Ant-Stick for Zwift on my Mac, or Bluetooth through the Companion App but now it pairs with Bluetooth directly to the Mac) And did you "pair" your sensor while using the Zwift Companion app? If so, then you need the Companion app open to pair as it used your phone's bluetooth connection. You may need to switch off Companion App and pair the trainer again using the device bluetooth connection directly.
HdB Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Also, check what other devices you have connected, and perhaps test making sure your trainer connects first, or last. I'm on the Android version using my tablet, and if my powermeter connects, then it or my trainer shows No Signal depending on which connected first/last. I assume your trainer's firmware is up to date.
