Like receiving coals in your stocking on Christmas morning. As I am also quite tall (188cm, 6.2″) with big thighs (64cm 25.2″), I am now quite worried with this as there are now several reports of people having this rubbing issue. During the last few weeks of social distancing and stay at home orders, I have been thankful for the Neo and for Zwift as an outlet.I’m keeping it. Is it possible to set a RH57 and stem of 120/130mm? Don’t worry, we’re gonna chat more about this a bit later. Blinking “error” on the bike display and a red thermometer on the app. Still, for Tacx’s first go at things, it’s pretty darn good – and I suspect most folks would be pretty happy with it. Just been chatting with Garmin support. I’ve not experienced any issues (so far!) I need to know this for transport issues. Many thanks. As for the clunking, would have to defer to Tacx support on that. I am really curious and think of waiting for the wahoo bike instead oh taking the Neo bike. You'll support the site, and get ad-free DCR! Feels like it will last a good long time. What would be interesting would be to set up a virtual gear on the bike with as small a front ring and as large a back ring that the app will allow, and then try riding in that, not connected to any app (and maybe without the bike plugged in) to see how low the watts will go at high cadence. – Independent arms and legs control You can control them via cadence, watt, speed or “always on” with a set level (low, medium, high). The same goes for Stages. Allow me to run very specific workouts with a stable ERG mode. Thank you. Maybe I overlooked it in the review, but do you see this as replacing your current bike-on-trainer setup? So my question to all is, now that the major issues are being dealt with, would you buy a Tacx bike again, or something else? Whereas with the Tacx setup it looks clean, but is a pain in the ass to get everything perfectly aligned initially, especially with the pod-caps that go on the other side of the crank arm (more on that later on). Thanks Mark, Hi, How often should it be serviced? Yes, it’s a ton of money, but for me it’s going to be worth it. Not happy at this point . How would those apps be influenced by the Tacx Weight Setting? You don’t have to box-up and send the whole motorbike back to the manufacturers for a complete replacement bike. Else, it’s a proprietary solution that doesn’t really fit what the tables are designed for (the rest of the bikes here are compatible with all industry protocols). In my little corner of the UK we have just moved into the 21st century with reasonable broadband. I’m still not getting the power only channel on TR, but I’ll ping those guys about it. The Neo Bike T8000 is the technological answer for your indoor training. At 5 foot 4 I ended up with the saddle in the lowest position possible. The tray for a mobile is ok but if you have a “normal” TV control as well you need to find another place for it. The challenge with recording/displaying though is that sometimes there are nuances to the exact recording on multiple devices, though usually that’s only a second. Has anyone managed to get Polar V 650 power metering to work with Neo Bike? How close do your knees or legs get to the front cockpit adjustment rail when out of the saddle, in a forward position? Sure, we’re only talking a couple of watts here – and again, it’s not the Tacx Bike accuracy that’s being impacted, it’s my comparison pedals. n.b. Mostly around the 40Watt above the desired value. He imagined that until the middle of 2020 we won’t know anything about this product. My bet is just something else random in the DCR Cave. All the retailers I contacted did not have any and didn’t know about upcoming availability. FWIW the Facebook forum is full of people on firmware 0.0.15 who are scared to update their trainers and will therefore never benefit from fixes and new features. I know CT and Garmin will make it right. Maybe shifting (even if virtual) could fix this, sadly I’m not sure this functionality is even being worked on. It’s clearly a warranty issue. They don’t support any widespreed BT or ANT. Moving forward to the front, we’ll slide on the handlebar attachment: Then we’ll add in the dual fan & tablet piece, it slides on and bolts in place with four screws: You don’t have to add the fans if you don’t want to. Just received a Neo 2 smart bike, as soon as I pedal immediatley goes up to extreme high watts cannot figure out what I am doing wrong, any advice would be appreciated as I cannot get anyone from Tacx to respond. my FTP is 270 and I donot consider myself to be the lowest in the population. Sorry, tacx (garmin), but that’s not acceptable. 250-300 watts for 5 minutes on the 1st Zwift Yorkshire climb is all it took. What is really the impact of this setting to actual training? Really hoping we see a fix. Haven’t done a two hour ride yet, but I was impressed with the saddle after an hour. Shout out to Clever Training for being so good at what they do!! I tried chaning the “wheel circumference” setting on the TR app, but the speed stayed the same. This is a less glamorous but completely functional version of what Wahoo has done with their KICKR Bike configuration app functionality, and allows you to specify things like the number of chainrings you want in a ‘virtual gearing’, as well as the exact chainring and cassette specifications: The difference here between Tacx and Wahoo is more around shifting itself, whereby Wahoo can replicate SRAM eTAP, Shimano Di2, and Campagnolo. Thanks for reaching out to Zwift support! It sounds like it’s working on certain platforms already. Can you provide a little guidance on what virtual settings we will need to change as we swap between riders? You could get a bike that mimics your road/tri rig, and even fit it out with the same (perhaps cheaper versions) of your favorite bar, shifters, aerobars etc. You’ll feel the same here as well on the Tacx Bike, and you can also test out this feature whenever you want via the Tacx Utility app: Now, there’s not a ton of training benefit here, per se. – There’s a place to stick your phones/devices/Haribo It just worked right out of the box. I’ll ignore any accuracy likes/dislikes in this section and keep it more on practical things. My Neo Bike should soon arrive at my dealer but I am now considering canceling my order, I shall have to decide before end of next week whether I switch my order to the Kickr Bike (knowing that my dealer already told me that they do not expect the Kickr Bike before Feb/March…. I don’t bother with any of the other setting on the bike like road feel and cobbles it my be something to do with this which could be a software issues. Ultimately the distribution is decided by Tacx / Garmin, but I got mine though Zwift. When I returned mine I left the front post attached (like you, they said the only wanted the frame, but I didn’t see a way of removing it). Will you test our product before release? ANT+ Power Meter Profile: This broadcasts as a standard ANT+ power meter, with speed soon to be baked in as well. Has anybody raised the road feel issue with zwift? We’ve seen Wattbike for example take these two years to optimize their product with a pile of minor tweaks that ultimately make for a markedly different unit than two years ago, and also sets the stages for their future products. I’ve never uploaded video to youtube and don’t plan on changing that, but I’ll be happy to share thoughts once I put in a few miles this week. Still it happens that Zwift sends me to low 90 and 80 during CoolDown etc. Next step is to find out if there is anywhere I could store it properly. Then technicall does not matter what is causing the need to produce the power, be it friction or brakes. I am not joking. I’d say it’s worthwhile to create a support ticket. I returned mine too and got my money back. Not a lot of other users out there though that I noticed. Shop . I’m curious. Can you please confirm that the ZWIFT road feel/terrain simulation is now working with the TACX NEO BIKE ? Actually Polar does pair with Neo Bike but the power readings just are not correct. Also, note that the less than bad-ass looking sticker is now being applied to the other side after I pointed out that it looked fugly there. Thanks! It can only handle one concurrent BT connection at a time. They worked and the buttons do click slightly, which is nice. I own three of their expensive, top-of-the-line devices (Edge 1030, Forerunner 935 and the Tacx Bike) and all of them have some quirks & issues. I don’t hear such a resonance/vibration noise in the Ray’s video about Wahoo bike. You can attach clip-on bars, but then you run into width issues with the front console, which for an aggressive fit won’t be awesome. I’m not happy with them and I need to figure out how to solve this long term, since I also find them to be in the wrong position. Hi Neil. One thing I have noticed is I’m not getting any of the feedback from the bike when I’m shifting gear. A saddle with significantly taller rails could help those who are rubbing on the seal rail potentially. Hi Mark, Now i have to determine whether I can stomach a constant rub on for the next few years. Garmin is sending a new set of fans. The handle bars? , Hello Ray, Now – you don’t actually need to plug it in at all. I only pushed up to around 700 watts. Reason should be, that they (Tacx) are suppose to start to install new chip (cadence etc) in production. Today, this happened for 50 minutes straight. ^Actually the email isn’t cc’d to DPD, it’s cc’d to DHD, i.e. What trainer has ever been worth £3,000?! Anybody in the UK been given any indication when to expect theirs? I think that the low power floor problem might be related to the fairly large ratio between the two belt pulleys seen in the picture above. The more you throw down, the redder the lights get: These same lights are also on the inside of the flywheel too. It has a multitude of responsive features such as virtual gear change, Gear Feel (gear shift simulator) and descent simulation. Thanks Michael, I’ve tried there too but it’s also out of stock at zwift. I used to swap my saddle to a temp bike, but these days if it’s under 3hrs or so, I can put up with almost anything without noticing. EV, can I ask you to measure how high the seat is placed above ground? Tacx support showing their normal level of ‘helpful’ support (blame the customer) – they’d have probably have been better off not replying in this thread – doesn’t make you feel quite so confident about spending $3,200 ! To celebrate we were ging to get out 1st Smart trainer – Looks like the Neo bike is out of stock everywhere. I received my Tacx bike last week and completed a few rides (ERG and Sim mode). I know that TTS4 is considered dead for TACX but many of us prefer it, due to the fact that you don not depend in an internet connection whenever you want to ride Did the Tacx Neo Bike suffer from the virtual wheel slip? It is really handy having an all in one bike – i can move it easily in the house, it connects right away and I can get riding in the time it takes to start up Zwift. Anybody in Switzerland having received a Taxc Neo Bike yet? I have got the similar response from GArmin support in Europe (Germany I guess) two days ago. I generally wouldn’t use YouTube unboxing’s on a product like this, just because the size/scale is a bit more cumbersome to film. Cheers. I’m extremely annoyed. So if you want a 52/36 on the front and an 11/32 on the back, then you can just set it to that on the app. I just had the same errror this morning. Thanks – interesting. I asked them if they had any instructions for shipping and they didn’t have any besides put it back into the box. Same for my wife and daughter. Page 1 Dear athlete, Congratulations! the frame seems relatively short. Next the Tacx Bike has downhill drive simulation, which means that as you go downhill the flywheel will forward spin the rear ‘wheel’ (cassette and flywheel since there is no wheel). Interestingly, since the update my Edge 830 thinks my Neo Bike is a pair of Vector 3 pedals. I would probably look elsewhere to be honest – waited 16 months for mine and when it arrived left a lot to be desired – ERG mode is awful, it’s reading 10 – 15% high on power, the levers have been designed by a small child and made out of really poor quality, slippery plastic, promised firmware updates not appearing….i could go on. I’ve been leaning towards waiting for the Kickr Bike, but now my Kickr looks like it’s finally going to give up the ghost so the Tacx Neo Bike Smart may be the better option due to availability. The avatar was still moving forward. What widht are original ones? But I can’t recommend anyone go out and buy one though. 2) My understanding is they are on slightly different firmware tracks (and the versioning supports that).
