Zwift Chat

[CXRAndy]

Hi Guys

Having purchased Andy's old Kickr at the weekend (and gotten rid of my BKool pro) I'm just getting myself all set up to start my Zwift trial later this week. One (for now) quick question....

I've created my account on Zwift Power. I've been told to set my team as CycleChat...how do I go about doing that?

From memory if you press the round Zwiftpower icon top left it has the teams in there. Use the Spanner to alter settings.

Hi Pete did you get your bike fitted. I mentioned in message about 130/135mm widths. The collar on the non drive side comes out and reverses to alter width.

I think I have found the problem or at least a work around ,when everything connects to Zwift I loose the resistance once I click let's go or ride , the bike I have on the Kickr core is a Giant TCR Pro 1 with the ridesense Bluetooth speed and candence sensors fitted, if I disconnect the candence in the Zwift app it all works ,

I will play about with it over the next few days and order a wahoo candence sensor to see what happens then,

Thanks for your help and I will me back in touch with an update

I have a wahoo cadence sensor and that works fine, so hopefully that will fix your problem

Thought I would try bkool tonight for a change
I had to let it find turbo again and then heart , after I did that it said ant wasn’t working so I decided to restart laptop - that wouldn’t restart ! So took battery out and started again . Up and running , back on bkool , had to find turbo , heart then ant
Came out and went on Zwift , everything found and just pedalled
I am sure many are well pleased with bkool - I am deleting it

Not sure yet, might aim for 5:15 (WBR 1 Lap Figure 8 Hilly Race (29.2km/18.1mi)) if back in time. Failing that then maybe the 6:10 SZR TT Race

@CXRAndy any ideas what is going on with climb. It connects fine with kickr and works fine during ride. When I go into the app it always shows as waiting? I’ve disconnected from kickr and still just waiting?? Wouldn’t mind but I’ve been here 2 days now! Getting hungry.
Maybe needs update but stays at same.

I dont know, I was happy when it went up and down on Zwift. I did the firmware update and left it at that.

Yer I’m all good it goes up and down when should just wondered what it’s wziting for! Perhaps me to get quicker so it works harder!

How do you guys like the kickr climb so far? Do find it help prompts you to shift gear more often?
