This is just an excellent example of someone committed to a project all the way through. There are other channels that come close but this young man had the gonads to cough up the cash for the power meters and I salute you for that sir!! I also plan to be doing this for my spin cycle. I do have a kickr snap for my road bike but I also want to switch up and use the spin cycle for my own reasons. THANK YOU for sharing this. Question: I have heard that the power meter pedals don’t match up with shimano clipless so how much did it cost you to upgrade your shoes and is there an adapter available? I think it would be great if you could show doubters how dependent Zwift is on Power ratings vs speed sensing. Maybe take on an incline and decline and show how you change the bike resistance to get what you want out of your work. GREAT JOB!

that bike looks professional. the handle bar is pretty good, the flywheel seems heavy enough, resistance on sides is better than one on top because it allows for better gradual resistance. also construction is solid. probably the reason it's no longer made is because it wasquality bike and expensive to make but people are uying the cheaper ones of lesser quality. all the quality solid things are no longer made, as today is popular to make things as cheaply as possible, while looking ok, and being thrown away after couple of years.

Hello Cruise, I discovered your channel some days ago, and I've watched a lot of your videos! I even told my friends about your story(as far as I know) on how you got to Japan, your marriage, how you commute to work, etc. To the point they got interested on watching your videos :) Some things I'd like to say are that I think your are a beautiful person, the way you talk about your wife even when she can't understand what your say on your videos for the most part, and the way you take life, just simple, I know there are times with struggle in everyone's life but when I watch your videos of you commuting and talking with that peace in mind, I can feel that too. I feel like you try to avoid complications, things doesn't have to be more complicated than they actually are, and that is really great man. One thing I'd like to ask, hoping you don't get me wrong. How do you feel about your family? Do you miss them? You've told us about going to your wife's country to live, but what about you? Haven't thought about going back to your hometown anytime? Cruise, I hope you're doing good 🙏

you can manually adjust the resistance for uphills and downhills to make it more realistic. Or you can just keep pedaling normally. If you don't increase the resistance on an uphill, then you will just climb slower.

Now i am trying to get back into shape and lose some weight, im 5.11ft and 108kg. I see so many negative comments on the use of spin bike. I have tried the HR APP to power on your other video, it just wont connect or report correctly. 140bpm/98rpm/80 cadence and it shows 24w or less. I aint that unfit. So, do you think a Power crank that i mentioned above (4iiii Precision SH 7000 )will give me a more accurate reading or have i wasted my money....

Just select the closest size I guess. It's not going to be accurate whatever you choose though, because the flywheel speed and cadence will both lower when you are on a higher resistance.

I ordered the exercise bike on January 7th and it arrived on February 12th. kzbin.infoUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The box must have been tossed around quite a bit because one whole side of the styrofoam was destroyed, and the other side foam was cracked. The Two zip ties holding the handlebars had broken loose and handlebars were loose in the box. There are two small holes in the foam on the right side of the handlebars, I guess from rolling around inside the box. Assembly was straight forward and easy. I am 6 ft 5 in 220 lb and the handlebars and seating positions fully adjustable and work great, I'm getting full leg extension. The noise level is very, very low and acceptable. The adjustment knob for the pressure on the flywheel works well also. The exercise bike is very well made, sturdy and easy move around. This is my first exercise bike and will keep me in shape over the winter. Update 3/19/21: when removing the sticker from the wheel, make sure you remove any sticker glue also. I thought mine was clean but I was getting a slight noise from the glue. Once cleaned off, its super quite. Also the monitor didn't work, tracked it down to the pickup device wasn't in the hole. Once I moved in the hole, it works fine. Do NOT put it in until it touches or it will damage the pickup.

Thanks! The power meter pedals will be the largest cost for this setup if you are buying everything new, but there is no other good way to connect a spin bike to zwift. The cost of the power pedals and spin bike combined is still less than many smart trainers on the market now, and the pedals can be used on all your bikes, so I still think it is a good deal.

Useful as Wahoo smart trainers are the new toilet paper, sold out everywhere, but I like the idea of a spin bike and power meter pedals linked to computer.

Are you able to go over 400w with a power meter? I'm stuck at 400 no matter how hard i pedal with a cadence / speed meter

Yes. Measuring power with just cadence / speed is completely inaccurate

It depends on the power meter you are using. For the Assioma's, just use the app to zero them out.

I do have serious question too....umm how do u judge how much resistance to put on ?...say ur on the flat, how difficult do u make the flat riding?...i amagine its difficult to know, unless u go by the watt output from ur outside riding, n then bring that knowledge to the spin bike?....p.s.......i think ur wife should pop in n turn the resistance knob at ramdom times, to get her own back for making her climb the gravel tracks 🤣
@TwoWheelCruise
@TwoWheelCruise 4 жыл бұрын
Sometimes I adjust the resistance based on the terrain if I am doing a more serious ride. But for most rides I adjust the resistance based on how hard I want to ride or when I want to do intervals. she sometimes has fun pushing the emergency brake button haha
