    Finally got sick of the British weather so the time has come to invest. I fancy a direct drive version & will deffo be using Zwift.

    I’d be grateful for any tips / recommendations & also is a trainer that Zwift can control the resistance a must?

    Sounds like a good idea to me but they are a fair bit more expensive so if you were in my shoes would that be a dealbreaker?

    Cheers for that. 

    Cheers for that. 

    My main concern is getting it right 1st time. What I don’t want to do is buy something at the lower end of the scale that Zwift won’t control resistance with for example & then wish I’d got the better one. That’s why I’d like to hear Zwift users view on this  

    The Tacx was on the list to look at as is the higher priced Cycleops Hammer which got a great review on here.

    Have a look at DC Rainmaker’s
    Have a look at DC Rainmaker’s website. A wealth of information on there.

    The cheapest direct drive smart trainer at the moment seems to be the Tacx Flux. Available for about 600 notes. There were a few problems reported with a batch of them initially but the issues seem to be sorted out now.

    The other one to look out for at the slightly cheaper end of the scale is the Elite Direto which DC Rainmaker seems to rate highly. Not widely available at present though and no current discounts from RRP from what I’ve seen.

    Beyond that you’re into the realms of the Kickr and Neo which are rather more spendy options.
