My Wahoo Kickr no longer has Erg mode or any other resistance levels available. What happened to this functionality? ---

Make sure you have chosen the smart trainer activity icon. If you choose the bike icon the smart trainer controls are not present. ---

Yes, thank you. Did the firmware update, restarted my Microsoft Surface, and that solved the issue for Erg and Resistance. There used to be a third option but the name for the option escapes me. That one is still missing from the drop down box in TR. Unrelated but I had to “forget” and “find” my Quarq power meter on my Wahoo Bolt after the firmware update as well. ---

The 3rd mode was “Standard” and it is not available with the updated ANT+ FE-C protocol, now used by TR. ---

Hi @swanson28 do you have a Wahoo Kickr/Snap? You need to use the Wahoo app on your mobile to update the firmware. Let us know if you have questions! ---
