Wattbike Hub 4+

Wattbike Atom

I got the Atom a few months back. I wasn’t doing cycling training at the time, but I did intend on incorporating it. I like the smooth and dependable increase in resistance with the App and the bike. It is easy to adjust (considering you are provided with the necessary tools to do the adjustment). I am a bigger rider at almost 95kg and the seat is very important to me. My last stationary bike broke the clamp and that was unnerving (but nothing compare to going through the turn at speed on the velodrome and having your seat attitude go south!).
Anyway, good job to the makers of Wattbike.
Now can you make
Me produce power like Sir Chris Hoy…

Hi MonteOld, thanks so much for taking the time to leave this brilliant review! Great to hear you are getting on well with the Atom and enjoying your training. Keep up the good work! :-)

Love My Wattbike Atom

After months of research into which device to use with ROUVY, I decided to go with the Wattbike Atom. I live in the suburbs of Chicago and shipping took about three weeks. Three months later, I am completely thrilled with my purchase! Setup was easy and I've had no issues with my bluetooth connectivity. Wattbike Atom/ROUVY integration has been completely seamless. I've ridden nearly 1,000 miles on my Wattbike Atom in ROUVY and I've gone from 217 pounds to 200 pounds. I've only actually used the Wattbike hub app to change the gearing from 11 to 22 gears. If you do any steep mountain climbing in ROUVY, you will definitely want to go with 22 gears.

Great app with some usability quirks

The app has been working great for me. My only complaints are the size of the in-app shifter buttons, which are these tiny triangles inside big boxes. Whenever I try to tap onto the triangles I seem to miss and the gears don’t change. Why can’t the full box simply react on touch input?
Switching back and forth between apps has been working fine for me - at least on my iPhone/iPad. When I start a ride and click onto the “play” button I sometimes get my bike ID displayed. Then I have to go back and do the same thing again and it will start.

Hi cyclone72, thanks for your review and providing some really detailed feedback. We'll share the feedback on the shifter buttons with the Product team to investigate, on our integrated touchscreen that is how they work so they are nice and easy to press, and that should be the case in iOS too. After you've connected to a bike once and have your bike stored in known Wattbikes, when you start a ride, the bike id should appear and the circle should turn green when it automatically reconnects to the remembered bike, if that isn't happening then it would be good to troubleshoot - for example check no other apps are still connected to the bike, also try powering off and back on the bike - but if you need support there you can reach us via https://support.wattbike.com. Thank you
