2023 Subscriptions AlanT Posted August 29, 2021 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Nope. I’ve got the wahoo kickr smart, which does the job, but was maybe a bit more expensive than those when I bought it. ginty001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Ginty, I did a good bit of reading on the matter of direct drives, particularly tacx offerings. The flux did get a reasonable write up. However, the neo T2 generally is considered top of the shop time after time in reviews by users. I did a couple of comparison shop based tests on the kickr. Got to say it’s marginal but I am more than content with the neo T2. It has been a ‘joy’ to use. No issues whatsoever. Like most things cycling there will be divided opinions but I can recommend the T2. A definitely expensive but if you can stretch the budget and find one then it’s worth the extra IMO. If you want to try before you buy you’re welcome to drop in. ginty001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions XXX Posted August 30, 2021 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 The flux is ok and will probably do all you need , but Taxc is now owned by Garmin so you have there customer service standards. What you need to do is decide what you want from the trainer , then buy the one that hits all your needs . The Neo is probably the best over 2000 watts , slope is great so any climb feels hard , plus you have road feel and the ability to use it un plugged, but are you going to use these features. ginty001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Billy missed the important bit about the neo…….you get to freewheel on the descents. That said anything off tarmac feels like riding through treacle. Watts up speed through the floor. ginty001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberto Posted September 11, 2021 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 Heartily recommend the Kickr Core (Zwift also promote it for their platform as a top choice) ginty001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
