  • Great trainer.

    Great trainer. WOrks on bluetooth. Had trouble using Tracx Desktop Trainer app on my PC but that's probably an issue with my PC. Used it with Zwift and it gives a good variable resistance experience.

  • Budget smart trainer

    Went for a tyre on trainer because I didn’t have the budget for a direct drive trainer. I had assumed a direct drive was the only way to do smart training until I did some research and found some good reviews for the Tacx. I use it with Zwift. I can’t validate the accuracy of the power measurement but the power application when going from hills to flat and vice versa seems reasonable if not a little unrealistic. It is hard to judge an entrance to a hill in an online ride. It can feel abrupt, but this doesn’t really matter to me. ERG mode (fixed power mode) is really good for intervals and training, and the Tacx does this well. I can’t compare this to any other trainers but I like how it works on the Tacx.

    I have bought tacx vortex smart. Perfect trainer for budget pedaling at home with Zwift features.

  • Good trainer

    Excellent product & value for a wheel on smart trainer, can't compete against a direct drive trainer but as good as a wheel on trainer gets.

  • Back in training

    Great trainer connects really easily to zwift, easy to adjust if you follow the guide and use the app, this trainer is allowing me to get back on my bike during these dark, wet & icy days

  • Works out of the box

    TACX is part of the Garmin group, so the software works perfectly with a Garmin cycling computer; also, the Garmin sensors for Cadence and Speed link up quickly. Add an Ant+ dongle to a laptop and run the TACX application for Windows or Mac and you can cycle routes and watch the video simultaneously.

  • Great Value Smart Trainer

    Easy to set up and provides a great way to use cycling apps such as zwift. Excellent value compared to direct drive trainers which whilst becoming cheaper are still the domain of the dedicated cyclist
