Wizard of legend trainer manual#
Putting things together is fairly straightforward, either via following the included manual (logical), or freestyling it. Plus of course, the power cable and setup manual for it, which is also included in the box.Īs is a small combo hex-wrench/Phillips-head screwdriver. Here’s all the pieces out ready to assemble:Įssentially, you’ve got basically three chunks of the unit:Ĭ) The long metal span that connects them This is largely due to the long strut that connects the front and rear portions, as well as the A-frame of the front wheel holder. Far larger than any normal trainer would. However, the CORE does require you purchase a cassette for it (about $50 or so), as well as of course requiring you remove your wheel to mount the bike to the trainer. Further, it’s compatible with the Wahoo KICKR CLIMB.

The KICKR CORE is a full smart trainer that also calculates and transmits power (accurately), and does not require a secondary power meter. That’ll come later in the year.įor context, this price is $100 less than the Wahoo KICKR CORE, which sits at $899.

Which makes the bundle an odd proposition, as you’re only saving $50 – and Wahoo doesn’t yet have the upgrade right-sided pedal available (nor the pricing). The dual-sided POWERLINK ZERO set by itself costs $999. Meaning, it’s an extra $600USD for the single-sided power pedal (normally $649). There’s also a bundled version of the KICKR ROLLR that’s sold with the new Wahoo Speedplay-based power meter pedal, but single-sided version, for $1,399. – Pricing and Availability: $799USD – Shipping immediately – CLIMB Compatibility: No, it is not compatible. – Power Cable Required: Yes, power block compatible with 100-240v – Power Meter Required: Yes, for apps like Zwift, TrainerRoad, and more – Stated Power Accuracy: N/A (no power meter inside) – Bike Compatibility: Any bike with a tire width of up to 2.1”/53mm on 700c wheels (so road, gravel, and some skinnier MTB tires) – App Compatibility: Every app out there basically (Zwift, TrainerRoad, Rouvy, RGT, Wahoo SYSTM, Kinomap, etc…)
Wizard of legend trainer Bluetooth#
– Protocol Compatibility: ANT+ FE-C, Bluetooth Smart Trainer Control, Bluetooth Smart Power/Speed/Cadence (no ANT+ Power/Speed/Cadence)
Wizard of legend trainer portable#
– Portability: It’s storable, but not portable to other locations (like a race) – Sound: Not quiet, it’s a full wheel-on system, so your tire makes a bunch of noise (based on speed) – Flywheel: It has a flywheel weight of 10.5lbs/4.76kg (same flywheel as KICKR SNAP) – Wheel-on Trainer: This means you leave your rear wheel on Here’s the top-line specs for this trainer, so, let’s dive right into it: This section will be quick and to the point.

Once this unit goes back, I’ll go out and get my own for any future testing needs. And as regular readers know, if something is crap, I’m gonna tell it brutally like it is – no matter the brand. This review is not sponsored (nor does any company get to preview anything I review), and I don’t take any advertiser money from any companies I review. But more on that later on.Īs usual, this trainer is a media loaner, and it’ll go back to Wahoo shortly. The primary appeal of ROLLR being that it takes no more than 3-5 seconds to put your bike on it. Instead, it links up to your bike’s existing power meter, and then broadcasts all that together to 3rd party apps. That’s because no roller company to date has mastered getting even vaguely accurate power on a roller (due to lack of constant pressure on the wheel), and in this case, Wahoo decided against offering power altogether. However, unlike all of Wahoo’s existing smart trainers, the KICKR ROLLR requires your bike have a power meter for use with most apps. The front-end has a stability frame that holds the bike in place, while the rear is able to move around freely. The KICKR ROLLR however is a bit different than either other smart rollers we’ve seen on the market, or Wahoo’s own smart trainers. That’s following it being non-announced last fall at UCI’s Road World Championships, where riders used them in the warm-up tents over the course of numerous days, in the time-trial areas. I’m not super sure how you classify it (Wahoo themselves officially calls it a “smart trainer” in their media release), but whatever it is – it’s here and now properly announced. Wahoo has now formally announced their KICKR ROLLR smart trainer…err…smart roller.
