So my dad was jealous about my winter training setup, and helped himself to a neat Tacx Flux S smart trainer and Zwift account.
Make sure to give him a ride-on if he passes you in Watopia!

I have the Tacx Flux and have had problems with the pulley system. This afternoon I went to the store I purchased from, and they have ordered me the Flux S as a free upgrade saving me £100. I can't wait to try it. ,,,and your dads home looks ace! "Ride On"

The problem with the lower end trainers is the lack of torque, meaning you can't do slow heavy efforts. Some of my training inolves 'sprints on a hill' originally from the Spinning program, which are generally 20-30 seconds of 60-70rpm max effort. Most indoor trainers can only handle ~500watts at 60rpm, but i jeed to be able to hit ~1500w peak at ~65rpm. The Neo 2T is the best at the moment and the closest you can get, but you still need to use a 'harder' gear on the bike to reduce torque going to the trainer. Also the flux isnt that quiet, the neo is much quiter, your dad was just at such low rpm the flywheel wasn't spinning very fast. It's at flat road simulated speeds over 20mph that you can tell the difference, the neo is the only trainer anyone makes that doesn't have a belt and separate flywheel, it's inherintly quieter.

I read that this trainer works with a kid’s Norco 20 inch for Zwift kids. My son is still on his Prevelo 16 inch that I will hook up to a Kurt Kinetic Road Trainer as a free wheel + Garmin sensor (they have an adapter for smaller bikes, but they are sold out). Be cool to have him on a real trainer though.

@rein2523

If your Tacx is underreading there are two possible issues. The first, and most likely, is that the device youre comparing with is overreading. All Tacx smart trainers are calibrated and checked at Tacx HQ. They won’t leave the factory if their offset is more then 2%. Second option is something broke down in the Tacx. Than you should contact Tacx asap. And don’t forget you will see a 4-10 watt diffrence between a crank based in the pedals, cranks, or spider compared to one based in the hub due to the losses of the drivetrain.

First of all - thanks for your great videos! :) I'm thinking of getting one of those, but I live in a pretty old apartment building with hin walls and alot of sound going through the floor. It seems pretty silent, but do u reckon it is silent enough? (I know, really weird question, but maybe you can give me an idea)

Ik ben ook nog aan het zoeken voor een tacx, maar er zijn zo veel varianten dat ik niet weet welke het best is voor mij. Ik wil hem in de winter gebruiken om binnen te trainen, maar in de zomer moet hij licht genoeg zijn dat ik m mee kan nemen naar de koers voor het warmrijden. Heb jij een idee?
@Fernwee
@Fernwee 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Fleur, ik neem aan dat je wel wilt Zwiften deze winter, dus wel een smart trainer nodig hebt. Dan zou ik kijken naar de iets handzamere wheel-on trainers, dus de Wahoo Kickr Snap of Tacx Bushido. Met de andere merken heb ik zelf geen ervaring.

That, but also the power accuracy, and the some details about erg mode. The Neo is just a little bit better in every aspect I think, but for my and my dads purpose it might not be worth it. A bit like comparing ultegra and dura ace I think.
