Price link coming soonWhy buy it
A smart bike frame that clips onto a Wahoo KICKR Core 2, with Zwift Play controls built into the handlebars for full in-app control. Far cheaper than a purpose-built smart bike.
Skip it if
You ride on platforms other than Zwift — shifting and controls are built specifically for Zwift and don't translate well elsewhere. Also has a fixed crank length.
