In a separate post of Peloton’s Q4’20 quarterly and 2020 annual results, Forum users discussed the implications to TrainerRoad. While viewpoints were mixed as to whether Peloton represented a threat to TR’s existing business and/or acquisition of new customers, Zwift was mentioned several times as …

n=1 example I know but this is why I’ve just cancelled my zwift subscription and kept TR. If TR keeps their focus on their current offering they’ll have me as a subscriber for a long time. Disclaimer : Zwift user for 5 months, TR user for enough years that Im not actually sure when I joined

Amazon Alexa fund was one of the investors so not too far a stretch to see who will power their voice integration

I’d like to see what Apple could do if they bought TR and someone like RGT. potential to use Apple mapping to intergrate into RGT magicroads and TR powering the training side of it.

The end goal for all these platforms is not the same in each case: It’s not a case of TR being at risk because they don’t have as many volcanos on the screen as Zwift. That’s not what it’s about. Zwift probably wants mass market penetration like Peloton. TR is about proper training for people that…

Apologies to those who’ve seen my thoughts on this before. As someone who uses both platforms, zwift provides a decent (not great) visual distraction. But it could honestly be anything on a screen, on weekends it’s usually an english premier league game. When I got my Hammer, I quickly decided that…

I’ve done the Zwift workouts before, and quite frankly I can’t do them. Because the app is part of the cartoony video game world, i just doesn’t feel the same and it’s hard to focus on the workout. Call me crazy but if I’m doing some VO2Max intervals, I just want to see the damn blue line and nothin…

I think this is likely bigger than Zwift, Specialized, Peleton etc etc… There’s a recognition from the UCI of eCycling as a distinct discipline with it’s own defined ruleset. There’s been a lot of positive support for indoor racing/different training strategies from the UCI World Tour riders. We’…
