- Well, it’s not like Wahoo is free from issues either:
Honestly, each brand has shown issues with nearly every model of their trainers. You will find examples of problems and people who love the same model. It’s a bit of a gamble with any brand or model right now.
There’s not much point in spending money on an upper tier cassette for the trainer. At best, some people say the shifting is a touch better or the sound quieter. Otherwise, keep it cheap.
I tend to suggest matching the cassette tooth count so you have a similar gear range to the outside bike. But it’s possible to choose a different one depending on your goals for the trainer.
