That is an unusual one 😂 I have fairly low ceilings for a modern(ish) house, just over 7 foot, and I think I'm about at the lowest you'd want tbh. I can touch the ceiling with ease, of course it does depend on your height too I guess!
It’s just a cheapo Amazon one, it’s not a great fit so wouldn’t recommend it. I like the look of the vel one from sigma sports, I might try that next time I make an order, it’s not too expensive either!
Hi Ian, I have the Wattbike next generation model as well as the sound often I find is quieter than these videos make out. I live on the first floor in a flat and was concerned but I needn't be, it's totally not an issue. For me anyway, a washing machine or vacuum cleaner is much louder and I often do sprints early in the morning and it doesn't cause any issues as I've discussed this also with all my neighbours and they are fine with it.
Hi Mike thanks for the video, wondering if the Wattbike atom is compatible to do the 6” and 30” Wingate test? Or is it only for the pro/trainer? Thanks keep up the good work!
Had a Wahoo Headwind for 2 years now and it is fantastic.
Thanks!
unusual question - I have limited ceiling height where I'm planning to place it. What ceiling height would you say is the minimum needed?

what sweat cover are you using please, is it any good?

I am a current user of the Elite Zumo how does the noise level compare?
I think the wattbike is louder, but the Zumo is a very quiet turbo!

Both tests are on the WattBike app which suggests that yes, you can use the Atom for them. That's as much as I know though!
Ride outside. Life is hard Put a helmet on.
Gosh, it’s noisy! Thank you, I was going to buy one, but that’s put me off.
Thats the microphone, I've got one and it quite quiet nothing like as loud as it sounds above!!
