as long as it doesn't cost 1k+ sounds good

[@Mapdec]

£700 in the UK. Good competition to the Kickr

[@wonglemydongle867]

Saw the deal, looks pretty good.

[@neanderthalsmtb9176]

Good!! Nice work

[@Craigo5000]

It'll cost around 300 quid more in the UK than any other country. We get ripped off here. Tax/Brexit/insert other reason. I'd be interested if it does Road patterns and simulated descent. I can't stomach paying £1100 for a Neo - especially since it was £850 only a few months ago. Hopefully the Elite Drivo will help create some competition and drive prices down a little.

Well, you posted 3 years ago so pardon my lateness here, but I grew up in the UK and always felt it deserved its 'rip-off Britain' title. Since then I have left, and lived in 8 other countries only *one* of which (Egypt) was cheaper in real terms than the UK when it comes to anything that is not real estate. You get ripped off buying a house, for sure. I haven't looked into this particular product but I would be willing to stick my neck out and say that no way, NO WAY will this be more expensive in the UK than it will in Kazakhstan. The UK is actually quite cheap, by comparison, to many other places. Yes, things are still overpriced, I don't dispute that.

[@christrickett3291]

Put it this way, a Kindle in the UK is about 90 quid, same item in KZ is $190. Same item. And I was looking at snow shoes, proper snow shoes rather than walking boots, Amazon UK has them at 130 quid, the only seller in Almaty has imported a few pairs speculatively and is asking $290 for a sale. You don't even have any snow in England, here we have 5 months a year with metres of the stuff and I don't get why there isn't really any demand for them.

What is the decibel level of this compared with the Neo Smart?

[@mohammedkhan4088]

Lol bet you cant even ride a 100 mile cycle ride in 5 hours and your talking about noise levels you stupid bitch

[@badouplus1304]

Wow, someone needs to take a pill...

[@briancollins6974]

@@mohammedkhan4088 A typical mohammed response to a perfectly reasonable question! You're the only stupid bitch here!! If you got nothing nice to say shut the fuck up Bitch!!

[@christrickett3291]

What would that have to do with it anyway? 5 hours or not, people need to consider whether this trainer will annoy the neighbours or they will end up not being able to use it for 5 minutes.

[@JamesRoth]

Hey Tacx, any news on this? Please tell!

[@icthysfischlein]

Outrageous: From Oct. 2018 *€9,99/month* subscription fee for GPS functionality! Love my Tacx Smarttrainer, which I bought for training race routes just a few months ago. Now I'm supposed to pay €100/year to be able to do that??? No way that is going to happen. If Tacx wants to move from hardware into software and take on Zwift, they should find an investor or do a kickstarter... or they could try and get their existing paid-up customers to pay a pile of money more for the functionality they already have. Yeah, the last one sounds good, let's do that.

[@CCCL350]

Can this be used with a “thru axle” bike?

[@tacx]

Yes we have special adapters for this. tacx.com/product/direct-drive-quick-release-with-adapterset/

[@eatmykwad]

but can you wheelie it ?

[@aseed918]

Is this compatible with Road Patterns?

[@James-zu1ij]

It has a fly wheel so I guess not

[@marcienko]

What is the decibel level os this unit ?

[@tacx]

we do not have the exact measurements yet

[@marcienko]

Thank you .

[@thecattery]

The only problem is when it breaks, you get completely left for dead and without a trainer as they mess around working out what to do

[@tacx]

If you have any issues with your trainer then please send an email to [e-mail]
