Thanks for this Liam. I am seriously considering buying this now.

[@yijuntey]

Ive been wanting an indoor trainer for a long time now and finally starting to consider different options and this might be it

[@jeffreymace6357]

Super review. Thanks

[@roadcc]

You're welcome 👍

[@bernsev5026]

Très bien 👍 Merci

[@SpicyAngler]

Thanks for the video. I have this trainer just about a week. Bought it from new and loves it. I still learning it with the different apps on the market.
I have a question, maybe you can advise. When I connect to the elite app it give as default the circumference of the wheel as 2070. Obviously there is no real wheel on it so do I leave it like this or do I measure something or do I just put what my wheel circumference is when I ride outside in-order to match it?
Second I saw the calibration can be done only when it is Bluetooth connected and not ant+ why?

[@RoadGravelBike]

I left the wheel settings as they were. Elite want you to calibrate via the MyeTraining app. As this is a smartphone app, it will communicate via Bluetooth.

[@TrueBlade-1889]

Do you need a different chain when switching back to your road wheel/cassette ?
Thnx.

[@jazznroll5]

i don't care about zwift but i would like to watch a video of a route and have the changes in terrain correspond in the resistance of the trainer and watch my numbers on the screen at the same time. Can i do this with zumo ? If yes, how ?

[@chrismccafferty83]

What cassette and tools do you need to buy?

[@WrathOfVaz]

Hi, can this be used with RGT cycling?

[@WerdnaLiten]

Seriously tempted by this, especially if recreational cycling outdoors is banned.

[@RoadGravelBike]

Defo a great option for these crazy times.

[@evenhoem2971]

What is the name of the power supply? I have this trainer but i am missing the power supply

[@angusowens1189]

I purchased this turbo yesterday and it's literally impossible to pedal. I have no idea how to sort it

[@brody5211]

Angus Owens you sort it ?

[@joshbolton678]

I've got one of these and the elite software is dreadful. I have had it since October but really only just started using it. I can't get the Spindown calibration to work. Any suggestions?

[@RoadGravelBike]

Hi Josh. Are you trying the spindown calibration on Zwift or on the Elite Upgrado app? Elite told me that as long as you can do the calibration on the Upgrado app, it'd be set up properly.

[@joeyc8546]

Is it a plug in turbo or does it use a generator for the variable resistance?

[@RoadGravelBike]

Hi Joey. You can use the Zumo without power. You get a progressive resistance level by shifting through the gears. But for it to function fully as a smart trainer, it needs to be plugged in.
