I’m showing a new tag on both my owned wheels and the wheels in the shop but I can’t get rid of them. Anyone else have the same issue?
Edit: solved, it was the BMX Bandit. I just had to equip the bike and both tags went away.

Does what was promised, and works well.
A great tool if you want to watch live cycling on your tablet while cruising at a fixed wattage - my main use case, I think.
One thing, though. To lock your watts the Watt Lock icon, a padlock, has to be set to 'open'. If you click on it so that the icon shows a closed padlock the Watt Lock is disabled.
So an unlocked padlock indicates locked watts while a locked padlock indicates unlocked watts.
Sorry but that's dumb.

Hi,
I am a passionate runner and typically run most days of the week, usually around 65-75 miles a week in full training. I’m currently out of action with an injury and could be out for up to 2 months.
As the weather in the UK makes outdoor cycling very unappealing and dangerous (I also don’t own a bike), I’m contemplating a zwift set up. I appreciate it is an expensive outlay on the set-up cost for something I have little to no experience with.
I would say I am very aerobically fit (16 low 5k, 2:38 marathon PBs) but I am not cycling fit so when I have used indoor bikes in the gym my legs often give out before I’m even out of my Z2 running heart rate. I also find the experience of using an indoor bike or cross trainer in the gym and awful experience due to the travel, people and loud music making an already dull experience even less appealing.
What appeals to me about Zwift is the game like aspect to it that would probably keep me more interested than a cheap indoor trainer. I would like to keep some fitness while I am out of action running and see it as something I could potentially use to supplement my running training when I am back in action.
I’m wondering if anyone could answer the following:
- has anyone else had a similar experience?
- is a second hand zwift ride model worth it to save a few hundred pounds?
- is there anything else I should consider getting to make the experience better more comfortable?
- what is the best way to stick at it? I am usually very dedicated to running, cross training when injured less so
- how much space does it take up?
- in my situation is it likely worth the price or not?
Thanks

I am a beginner with Zwift, sorry for the silly question. Three green jerseys—I won three sprints. But how should this be interpreted? Against myself? Within an hour? On a given day?

Nice way to reward those who do a lot of pulling. And it could carry extra XP.

I’m new to the app and wondering how the thumbs up works? If someone gives me a thumbs up as they pass, is that something they have to go out of their way to do or is it automatic?

I didn’t think this update was due until later on this month?

Working great. Virtual shifting good. Just install 12mm end caps and use the longer skewer.

I am a mountain biker, not a roadie; so I'm very new to this..but I'm very excited about my new hobby!

I just got the Kickr V6 and noticed that it’s pretty unstable when putting it directly on carpet, plus I don’t want it to leave indents. I’ve seen some people use plywood, but I’m hoping to find something similar that just aesthetically looks a little better.
I’ve seen some rigid interlocking tiles options online, but not sure if they’re a good option on carpet since they might shift around. Any ideas?

I just received my Zwift (Wahoo cog and Zwift Ride) a few days ago. My wife is unhappy about the sounds it produces throughout the house (I’m using it on the 2nd floor and the floor is wood). I’m looking for options for mats that will dampen the sounds as much as possible. Part of having this setup is to ride it whenever I want especially when everyone is sleeping without disturbing anyone. Thoughts?! Thanks guys!

My buddy and I both zwift. We've always traded TV shows and Movies to watch. Just curious what the zwift community considers their go-to shows and movies?

I think my saris h3+ is dying a slow death again. this is my second time with the saris h3 and im tired of issues after 2 years of riding
if you were to choose a new trainer for riding inside with 12 speed or also the zwift cog which would you choose
i do have a rocker plate if that matters as well.
thanks

I’m about to drop $1299 on a zwift ride v2 with kickr core and I’m fine with it? But cant seem to get past the $50 for the tablet holder lol. Silly I know. Are there any other alternatives that aren’t crazy over priced?

So the weather has changed and my outdoor bike is stabled for the winter. I did my first Zwift ride (on my Zwift Ride!) since the spring yesterday. I'm sore!
I find that outdoors I'm happily doing 1.5-2.5 hours of riding. Yesterday I did just 45 minutes of Zwift. Similar HR to outdoor riding, but it feels so much more intense -- higher gear and higher cadence. I was staggering when I came off the bike, and today I feel it in my hamstrings.
For others who do Zwift in the offseason, do you find the same? Somehow you find yourself going harder and shorter indoors? That Zwift feels like a workout whereas outdoor feels like an activity?
And yes obviously I could ease up in Zwift, but the game mechanics seem to push you to going hard.
To be clear, this isn't a complaint. Just an observation.

Hi all
Bit of advice please - I have a Tacx satori which I set in my shed. It’s on a wooden floor with a mat and the rumbling noise is a bit too much. Is there anything I can do/getto damped the noise?

Considering joining Zwift to support with training (joints are not loving big mile run weeks so looking to integrate)
Previously balanced running with CrossFit but looking to improve endurance - honest thoughts? Pros and cons?

I'm using this older bike as my indoor trainer. I'm trying to figure out how to set up these brakes. To me it looks like these brakes need to be slid down the bars a bit. Google searching didn't help.

Hi I’m new to zwift. I’m saving for a better in game bike. Should I save up to 1m drops for the canyon aeroad? I’m thinking about getting a TT bike instead but I don’t know what the difference is in game. I assume you can’t race with one or the other in specific races.
Should I buy the aero zwift bike?
Will the aero bikes help with gaining drops quicker?
What’s the true benefits of getting an aero bike instead a virtual game?
I’m lvl 15 now with about 760k drops

Looking for some friendly & social teams to try help me get back into Zwift.
I enjoy all types of rides; racing to recovery
