What's the best Trainer to use with TR?

[Daniel_Lalinde]

That’s awesome. I think we have a winner!

PS: I’m curious as to what made you use the PM and the Core separately on the ramp test…?

Also curious as to why you warmed up 10 minutes prior to calibration…? Is that a required step for all workouts or is it just your personal preference?

The first time I ever used powermatch (with my Kickr Snap) it didn’t work properly on the final step of the ramp test. I kept pedaling but it held a lower power because my cadence dropped. TR support looked at my file and said TR was sending a message to the erg to increase power/resistance but it wasn’t responding. It messed up my test so since then I’ve always recorded them separately. I should probably try powermatch again with the Core but I’m hesitant.

Wahoo says to calibrate the Kickr Core after a 10 min of warmup every couple weeks for the most accurate/consistent power. It probably doesn’t matter if your using powermatch. It has been (Snap) and I guess I’ll just keep it as my routine before ramp tests as extra warmup for myself and to calibrate the brake.

Got it. Makes total sense.
Thanks a lot for all the knowledge shared!

Looking at the Saris H3, they on its web site that: " Compatible with Shimano/SRAM 8-11 speed cassettes"

What 's the recommendation for an off-wheel trainer + a 12-speed MTB (SRAM) ?

Trainer options for mtb sram eagle with boost spacing

Hello. I’m running my mtb on a wheel on trainer at the moment and have been looking at the possibility of upgrading to a model with interactive ergo mode. My bike has Sram Eagle and 12x148mm boost spacing. Can anyone suggest a direct drive trainer that will work with this set up? What extra adapters will I need? Is it possible to run an eagle drive chain on the bike and use a different cassette on the trainer (without the whole 12)? Thanks in advance. Ross.

Tacx Neo 2T and Nx Eagle 11-50 compatibility?

With the new normal and not being allowed to do my workouts on the Stages bike at the gym I’m jumping into the home smart trainer pool. I looked all over but didn’t see this question answered, Will the Tacx Neo 2T work with the the NX Eagle 11-50 Cassette? I searched the forum and found this but I couldn’t find the definitive answer in the thread. I obviously understand the cassette will mount since it’s the sram / shimano spline (not xd) but are there any other issues. For the record I am …

Tacx Neo 2T and XG-1275 eagle 10-50 cassette compatibility

I have installed a xg-1275 eagle 10-50 cassette on the Tacx Neo 2t with XD-R driver and 1.85 spacer, in the other side of Tacx, have mounted a spacer recommended for disk brakes bikes. All fits ok, but when I used the small gears, the chain jump continously, and de gear 10 hit with the frame. It’s a cassette incompatibilty or my installaton error? I have xx1 AXS derrailleur. Thanks.
