Ratings and Reviews
Lockdown Survival Tool
It’s lockdown number six here in Melbourne Australia and my trainer is an essential tool for physical and mental health.
I use a iPad to show the videos and ride my old Giant flat bar. The trainer is easy to set up for a ride and the Bluetooth works well to the iPad.
Then I’m of to the Dolomites, Pyrenees or a TT course from the Tour or Giro.
Where I live in Melbourne is not within 5km of decent hills so the trainer is the only way to get some simulated climbing (for non-Australians, my state imposes a 5km limit on how for you can exercise from your house in a lockdown).
Can’t ride against myself
One of the best bits of old tacx functionality was to be able to ride against yourself, after all if you are indoor training you just need to be as fast or faster than yourself a week, a month etc etc ago. This functionality doesn’t seem to be working now that Garmin have taken over.
Ride data & Elevation profile difficult to read on GPS workouts
On a smaller phone screen the ride stats (speed, power, grade etc) are too small to see and the light coloured elevation profile is often against a light background and thus also hard to see. If you don’t want the stats they can be swiped away but would be good if they were bigger font. The profile would be better on a seperate bottom panel with contrasting fore/background
