New Wahoo Kickr Bike V2 2022

No embargo. I’m honestly having difficulty finding anything interesting about it to discuss. It’s 99.9% the same as V1 far as I can tell. And that’s after unboxing and riding it for a few hours.

Direct Connect via WiFi is as good as it is on the Kickr 6. I think it’s a little quieter, I’d need to side-by-side it with V1. There’s still a resonance sound ~75rpm. The control unit where the levers plug into has had a minor modification to the underside to stop sweat ingress. There’s a little less rocking forward/back than V1, maybe the V1 I have has developed play over the years.

What remains the same: Everything else.

I have a massive list of things that I’d love to have seen updated in V2. Starting with better bars, tape, and saddle. Three things Stages nailed on the SB20.
