If you have always been smart trainer curious but the hassle of switching bikes has kept you away, we’ve got some good news. Wahoo has bundled the Kickr Core with the Zwift Cog, making switching bikes easier than ever. No more switching cassettes, no more tweaking your derailleur every time you change bikes, just put your bike on, turn a dial to align your chain, and ride. This freedom is great for households where multiple people want to use the trainer, or you want to use your road bike for one ride, your gravel bike for another, and your MTB for another (N+1 is totally a thing). Designed to work with the powerhouse cycling app Zwift, this smart trainer lets you ride courses from all over the world, with riders from all over the world. When riding in Zwift, the included Click shifter lets you virtually shift gears. If you aren’t a Zwift user, you can still do Erg workouts with apps like TrainerRoad, but the trainer will be matching the resistance to the workout, you will not be able to shift virtual gears. And another plus is that the Zwift Cog makes this trainer even quieter than it normally is, making it great for apartment life
