Went from a kickr snap to a tacx neo about 5 months ago.
It cost a fortune (says the scotsman in me😉) but I reckon its worth it and I only use trainerroad so the extra features like road-feel mean nothing to me.
I wanted something I could trust to deliver accurate and consistent power readings that my kickr snap just wasn’t providing. The fact it’s much quite than the snap is nice too.
There’s also a part of me that feels if you are pouring your blood sweat and tears (and time) into a hobby you owe it to yourself to use the best gear you can afford while doing so.
