Hey there! I stumbled upon a new project called the freebeat Morph 2-in-1 eBike and it seems quite intriguing. It features dual modes for both indoor and outdoor use, and the indoor recharge feature is definitely a game-changer. The brushless 750W motor, 80Nm torque, and top speed of 20mph are pretty impressive too. With the Smart Saddle Detection+ feature, it's not just a regular eBike, but also a fitness and technology blend. The ability to convert indoor calories into CO2-free miles for outdoor rides is a fantastic way to make a positive impact on the environment. Overall, the Freebeat Morph eBike seems like a promising and versatile option!
Hey there! Just finished watching your video on bike trainers and I must say, you did a great job explaining the different types and benefits. As an ebike user, I'm always on the lookout for innovative products, and I recently stumbled upon a new crowdfunding project called freebeat's Morph 2-in-1 e-Bike. This eBike has dual modes for indoor and outdoor use, and the most outstanding feature is that it can be charged when you apply the indoor mode! It's truly a game-changer for those who want to combine indoor fitness with outdoor exploration. Can't wait to see more updates and support this amazing product!

According to the online stuff, Saris' trainer has a max wattage that is unreachable at the current time. Their max wattage goes up to 2,000 watts and some publications claim the max wattage that tour de france competators on a sprint can hit are 1,500.
Great and informative video as always 👊🏾 I have a Tacx Flux S and it works well enough for a budget direct drive trainer. My only complaint would be the training floor with it not being able to hold power in bigger gears. Otherwise, solid just works, machine. Upgrade maybe after 22’ season.
Just moved over from an old Cycleops (Now Saris) trainer to the Tacx Neo 2T. The Tacx is a much quieter trainer, and the road feel is definitely a cool option. Great review of all the trainers though, it seems to me that most serious riders ride either Tacx or Wahoo, and with a negligible price difference now it seems like it just comes down to personal preference. Have you listed your Zwift tag? I’d like to follow you and see what kind of numbers you’re putting up.
I have the Tacx neo smart first one not 2 series , I love it , space is limited in my house so I can’t leave it set up so it folds up and I put it back in it’s box which tucks away neatly in the corner, thinking of maybe upgrading to the 2t series next , this one (fingers crossed 🤞🏼) is still working away nicely 👍🏻
Thx for the video! You maybe know when to expect some new versions from tacx and wahoo...neo 3/kickr v6? They have been both out now for a while now...
Im between the kicker core and tacx 2, I dont own a home trainer, wanted one to get more structured training in and when the weather is bad. What would you suggest or should i just save up and get the kicker 5?
Went with the Tacx Flux 2 since it has a heavier flywheel. The only negative I would say for the Tacx Flux 2 is that you'll not be able to get the Wahoo Climb. That looks like a super fun upgrade in the future. Let's hope that Tacx will develop something similar!
Totally unrelated, I know, but the first time youve reviewed the kickr headwind you showed it in front of the bike. In this video I've noticed its on the side. How well does it work from the side?? I can only use it like that but ive been holding a purchase because I'm afraid the airflow will mostly miss my body. Thanks
I have moved it all around but mostly sitting on the side like you see in the video. I don’t have enough clearance in my room to put it in front of me plus it can get blocked by the desk. So you just gonna have to experiment with your setup to see what works best. I also have another fan on the other side and sometimes I have both running. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
@@SmartBikeTrainers for me it can only work on the side. What i was asking is your feedback regarding cooling. Does it still work okay in terms of cooling? Or does half of the air gets thrown in a way that does not really hit the rider?
Hi there. Let's say I want to try zwift but I don't want to commit to a smart trainer. I have basic cyclops fluid trainer if I added a computer to it would I get a decent first experience or should I go to a bike shop to try a direct drive trainer?
If your bike shop can demo it for you with a direct drive trainer that would be ideal and will give you the best experience. Or you can get a Bluetooth speed sensor to connect to the device you use to run Zwift and you should be able to try it out. However there won’t be any interactivity between your Cyclops and Zwift so you won’t feel resistance changes with terrain changes in Zwift.
So I’m thinking of the wahoo kickr or tacx neo 2 but I’m awful with technology?? Would need a idiots guide to setting myself up. Any advice appreciated
This guy is a hack. He just listed a bunch of smart trainers. I have the direto XR and it's trash. It's not smart. The resistance is rarely right and it's been decertified for competition because it's less than 2% accurate
The Direto XR is +/-1.5 % claimed accuracy which falls within the +/-2% accuracy claim Zwift has in its racing rules. Sounds like you are confusing it with a different trainer.
How do these compare to the feeling of riding on rollers? I always hated riding on a trainer but an hour in rollers was easy. I do already have the trutrainer rollers would I best to just add the power flywheel. I just want to connect to swift and do simulation riding.
There will be an adjustment period for you. These trainers are rigid and don’t move much like you do on rollers. For simulation type riding and ERG mode training, I find the trainers to work better than rollers. However, for just riding using level/resistance mode, I think rollers are outstanding. If you decide to add the power wheel, you will get many of the benefits you get with a trainer particularly since you are a custom to riding rollers.
@@SmartBikeTrainers watching some of your videos. Trying to figure it out. So if I add dual sided speed play pedal to the trutrainer smart roller. I should have no problems with the power output at low speed. 2. Having said that I’m looking at $1900 for those upgrades. Do you think the kickr rollr is a better option? I could get the dual side package for $1700 I think it was.
@@RinerDC the ROLLR with the powrlink pedals is a solid option and will give you a very close feel to riding rollers without having to worry about balance and you will find erg training to be better as well. Not sure if that helps but let me know if you have any other questions.

Kickr V5 if you like no headaches. Buy an elite if you like hassle and smashing your head against the wall.

The first gen was solid and not much has changed to justify an upgrade. Thanks for sharing your experience and watching 🙏🏼
@@SmartBikeTrainers oh that’s good to know 👍🏻hopefully this one keeps going strong and thanks for the information and reply , great video as always 👍🏻
Great overview.. I use the Kickr Core which has been great but thinking I may upgrade to the Kickr 5 in the near future
You will like it. The auto calibration is great and a time saver. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I have a Kickr Snap and love it! So I saw your Peloton video and wondered have you ever linked your Kicker to a Peloton video?
The Kickr v5 is $840 at the Zwift Shop. I finally upgraded my Snap.
nice video thanks for the succinct reviews
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Thx for the video! You maybe know when to expect some new versions from tacx and wahoo...neo 3/kickr v6? They have been both out now for a while now...
I don’t expect to see anything new for a while
Im between the kicker core and tacx 2, I dont own a home trainer, wanted one to get more structured training in and when the weather is bad. What would you suggest or should i just save up and get the kicker 5?
The KICKR CORE is a very solid choice for structured type training and you will be happy with it.

@@Rsburg thanks for sharing, the tacx is cheaper and i did also notice the heavy flywheel. It will all come down to after sales service in SA

My budget only allows me to buy a Kickr Snap. However, I found a store selling a Flux S with the same price as the Snap. Which should I buy?
I always prefer the direct drive over wheel-on. So I would personally go with the Flux

@@SmartBikeTrainers Thanks that's helpful. I may just order and try them from Amazon because I can return items easily.
Heard the Saris H4 was coming out soon on a podcast.
Which podcast?

@@SmartBikeTrainers great thank you. Appreciate
I dont believe the Snap does cadence. Is this a new addition to the model?
Yeah that was a detailed missed in my editing. But yes, it doesn’t broadcast cadence.
