Six of the best smart trainers from Wahoo, Elite, Bkool, Tacx and CycleOps
Indoor training has been revolutionised by the introduction of smart trainers, with integrated power meters and the ability to provide controlled resistance via a computer or smartphone, making indoor training much more productive and accurate. In this video, we've rounded up six of the best smart trainers that we've reviewed here at road.cc.
The video includes the following six trainers:
CycleOps Hammer
Wahoo Kickr
Tacx Neo Smart T2800
Tacx Flux Smart Trainer
Elite Direto Trainer
Bkool Smart Go Trainer
If you're in the market for an indoor trainer, it's highly likely you want to use one of the popular apps like Sufferfest, TrainerRoad or Zwift. If you want to know more about Zwift check out our introduction video series here.
David has worked on the road.cc tech team since July 2012. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds.
A friend of mine really did drive his car into a tree, about twenty years ago, swerving to avoid a rabbit in the road....
road.cc must set a limit for article "Everything you need to know about disc brakes" per anum.
It seems odd that the police are talking about how they need to prioritise violent crime - to the extent that they really won't bother about...
My other half and I raised around £100,000 for a house deposit trading crypto so it's not all bad!
I've done a non-Zwift (i.e. real) off-road triathlon. Reverse order too! Turns out it was much more enjoyable than the "real deal" imo.
Exactly my reaction. It's a joke.
It is clearly rude to tuck in behind someone you don't know without asking, except in special situations. But what really bothers me is people...

Looks like this reduction of desert races into one bigger race is attracting a good field of riders. Brill.
I love the look of this bike, the frame and forks that is. I always put my own stuff on. But the geo is too racy. It needs 10mm less on the reach...
