    Great review once again Shane! Glad that Magene did address all the issues u had with the T300, seems like they watch you videos too!
    Can’t wait for your review on the T600 as I couldn’t wait to start my indoor cycling journey and just got the T600 recently!
    Keep up the great work 👍🏻

    Loving the new addition to the Lama Lab test, I have noticed with my new Zwift Hub One, it struggles to offer a consistent power at the low end, and my Quarq shows a very sloppy fix on the power. Looking forward to seeing how trainers hold up to it!

    That ERG mode setting the power almost instantaneously looked so much better than my Direto XR. I didn't know it can set the target wattage that fast!

      @bartoszkwiatkowski9388 6 месяцев назад +1

      Directo XR has a terrible ERG mode - I already changed the firmware there according to the Elite support team's advice, I also updated it a few times in the meantime but it didn't help much. On my Chinese ThinkRider X7 it's almost instant as with this Magene unit.

    • @greybeard4034
      @greybeard4034 6 месяцев назад

      I have the Drivo Serie one "that should have gotten a firmware update, but instead they released a Drivo II. The wattage is all over the place and needs a 20 seconds. No more Elite for me, Magene looks like a new contender for my new machine:)

    I bought a Kickr a little over two years ago. I don't see how that is going to be improved enough by Wahoo or any company to tempt me into buying a replacement for many years. The Kickr move doesn't do it for me.

    • @gplama
      @gplama  6 месяцев назад +5

      Even more evident with the Kickr CORE. That also provides 97% of what people are after. A good enough workout with good enough reliability. My classification of "Gen II" trainers with WiFi/Direct Connect, auto calibration, race mode, etc, are all nice to have features. No necessarily essential or incentive enough for people to upgrade.

      It appears to update at 4Hz over BLE. That isn’t listed anywhere on the technical specs though.

    This is not at all related to this video. A while ago you did a video about how to get rid of the blue thumbs dropping from the sky In Zwift by "Zeroing out" the image file. I am wondering if you could, or would be willing/able to do a video on how to get rid of the "Ride On" voice in Zwift and perhaps the bell while you are at it. It is amazing how many people think the thumb button is the same thing as pressing the arrow on the companion app when there is a circle around it. After many years on Zwift, I am puzzled why zwift has not made the useless thumb button just do what pressing the arrow does. I have resorted to turning down the game sound affects, but frankly I miss them. If I hear that stupid "Ride On" voice one more time, I'm going to lose it... Thanks for the awesome content. I'm always keen to see what you are up to.

    • @gplama
      @gplama  5 месяцев назад +1

      Removing that thumb image resource was pretty simple as it was a standalone file. The sound resources in Zwift are all contained within a single sound bank file last time I looked into this. That makes things a lot more difficult to remove.

      No. Elite make their own trainers.

  • @dylanl9532
    @dylanl9532 6 месяцев назад

    I think Magene used data smoothing to hide their power data inaccuracy TBH.
    I bought a T600 two months ago there was an obvious sin wave of power going up and down at an interval with respect to the cadence.

    • @gplama
      @gplama  6 месяцев назад +2

      That'd be exposed by the on-bike meters. Wasn't happening with the T300 Plus with the Power2Max, SRM, or Assioma DUO.

    • @michwoz
      @michwoz 6 месяцев назад

      Was it power inaccuracy or resistance sin wave? Data smoothing can only hide inaccuracies for very short intervals. But on this video, we clearly see power agreement during short sprints/intervals.
