Cheapest Smart trainer?
Hey all, looking for a backup trainer to my kickr, to drag with me to group rides, etc.
What is the cheapest smart trainer that can be controlled via erg mode from trainer road, zwift, etc? To be clear, not just looking for one that can broadcast numbers TO TR and zwift, but looking for one that allows those programs to control it. Thanks!!! |

Indoor group rides. 5 or 6 of us get together, each with our kickrs and out own iPad, etc to control the trainers with trainer road.

Ah. For a second I thought these rides involved some stationary warm up. Sounded pretty intense.

If within budget, the Elite Direto is quite light.

I am curious about this as well. But not to haul around. More cause I am on a limited budget. Sorry to hijack the thread

I believe that would be the cheapest would be the Elite Quabo , it can had for $449.
I also believe that Competitive Cyclist is blowing out the Cycleops PowerBeam at $499 |

The Tacx Vortex Smart is very popular.

Nashbar has the Qubo digital interactive model for $349... it's probably the cheapest with digitally controlled resistance aside from buying used. It's on my radar for the next sale that includes it.

I saw a review on Youtube of a guy being pretty satisfied with the :
Elite Qubo digital smart b+, but have no personal experience with it. |

Thanks, I saw those on Nashbar, but couldn't tell by the description if the trainer simply reports its power numbers to other applications (zwift, etc), or if it in fact allows said applications to control its resistance.

The Kinetic smart road machine is $369 at REI and all Kinetic trainers are 20% for REI members beginning Nov 10.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that one only works with their own app, not the online stuff like TR or zwift. For those, I think you need their more expensive 'smart control' version (569 at rei)
