Realistic indoor experience

In addition to providing advanced training and performance metrics like power, speed, and cadence, it's designed to make any indoor stage feel as realistic as possible.

In this way, you feel the sensation of changing gears with the touch of a finger thanks to the programmable shifters redesigned for Shimano, SRAM or Campagnolo.

Also, it allows you to experience the sensation of rolling on different surfaces such as cobblestones and gravel when combined with the Tacx Training application or compatible third-party applications.

Meanwhile, dynamic inertia helps maintain a forward feeling based on speed and grade.

In this way, thanks to this new solution, it is possible to accurately feel driving downhill thanks to its downhill simulation when connected to an external power supply and also to measure the position of each leg to better analyze the pedaling technique and develop a more effective pedal stroke.
