How to get on Zwift with a small Budget

[@VibesVaried]

Extremely helpful video, not sure why it was so hard to find a video that offered cheaper options to use Zwift, I am fully motivated to give it a try with my classic trainer and vintage road/racing bike.

Glad it was helpful! Let me know how your setup went.

[@BrianRPaterson]

Excellent. It's incredible to see how cost effective it can be to get started Zwifting. Cheers!

[@CyclingAlaska]

Yes, there is usually a budget way to do most things and it's usually not discussed openly because everyone is always trying to sell something to consumers! You also don't even need Zwift but for me, being on Zwift is a big motivator to cycle indoors and stay in shape for winter training.

@@CyclingAlaska One of my riding buddies was moving back to Australia, where he already had a new state-of-the-art smart trainer. He very kindly sold me his "old" original TACX trainer for a song (thanks Jason!). It's been working fine, and fingers crossed it'll continue to do so. I'm having loads of fun on Zwift. And I've got a free trial on Fulgaz where the real-world videos are fantastic. I may even sign up! Cheers

@@BrianRPaterson Yeah, FulGaz looks interesting but I've never tested it out.

I was wondering if there was a cheaper way because those smart trainers are very expensive.

I found a used Tacx Bushido smart trainer for super cheap. It works great with Zwift.

Thanks for sharing that piece of advice!
