TRON Bike

[@Cookefan59]

I just got my Concept Bike last week after two years. I wanted add that when you get close to your goal, you might want to see exactly how many meter or feet are left. If you bring up the Challenge Screen while riding on a route with elevation, you can actually see the elevation being added to your total. This came in handy for me as I wanted to get the bike on a certain course and a certain day. Also, if you want another way to set up blended colors on the bike, 🚴🏼 select the frame and then mount your trainer. While you’re adjusting the color, begin pedaling your trainer and you will see the legs go into motion and you will see the colors change. It’s just an easier way of seeing what colors will be actually showing while you’re out there on the road. Ken, your videos and information have been invaluable to myself and many others. They are always very well put together and just chock full of information and wisdom. Thanks to you I Zwift indoors and outdoors with running and cycling and I’ve also leveled up faster thanks to you. Keep up the fantastic work sir. I might also add that you are one helluva cyclist as well. God Bless. 👊🏽😎

Thank you, sir! Very useful!

Thanks for your comment. Ride On!

Just the facts, relevant info, no flafla. You're the best man! Thank you!

[@endurancesweat]

It's good to know that you found the information to be presented clearly. That is my aim. Thanks. Ride On.

I did 40,000M before I knew you had to sign-up BEFORE you start (as in the first thing you do after your initial install). And, to make matters worse, your previous climb meters DO NOT count towards the goal that were completed before doing the challenge. So, now I have nearly 75,000 meters and still no Tron bike.

[@endurancesweat]

Oh that just so disheartening. That's a real "punch in the gut", so to speak. Be persistent, you WILL get the Tron bike. Ride On!

Thanks Ken, I want to unlock this bike so bad!

[@endurancesweat]

You will get it, for sure! There are some group rides on Zwift to help those looking to earn their Tron bike. For example, check out the Banditz Group Ride, "Tronathon" on Sundays. (14:15GMT, 09:15EST). Ride On.

So what does "faster" mean with any aero-bike in Zwift? Is it merely the distance you travel over time? Or does it also affect the power required to obtain a speed?

[@endurancesweat]

Just like in real lift, you will go faster for the same power on a bike that is more aerodynanic/ has a lower drag coeffienct. The Zwift program uses an algorithm that takes into account your power output (Watts), your weight & height, the weight of your virtual bike and wheels, the draft coefficient of your vitual bike and wheels, virtual road grade (flat, uphill, downhill), in-game drafting, etc. See this Zwift Forum explanation: forums.zwift.com/t/how-does-zwift-determine-my-speed/427729
