The biggest beast in fact coming in at a whopping 50 pounds 22 7kg the kickr bike flywheel is a mere 5 9kg and the wattbike atom s is 9 3kg.
Tacx neo smart bike vs kickr bike.
The tacx neo 2t smart trainer is not your grandmother s indoor bike trainer stand.
Ok your grandmother probably didn t have a bike trainer but my point is that this thing is intense in all of.
The tacx neo bike however can simulate 125kg but that s sorta a different situation.
The legs swing out to the side and lock in position with ease while the height of the kickr can be adjusted for the type of bike you have 24 inch road and mtb 650c 26 mtb 700c 650b and 29er.
Smart bikes are a piece of equipment you might be familiar with.
Beyond the wattbike it s mostly a wash between the wahoo bike the tacx bike.
The wattbike atom the stagesbike the tacx neo bike and the wahoo kickr bike.
However the tacx bike comes in roughly a standard bike box whereas the kickr bike box is a bit larger.
The wahoo kickr has a physical flywheel that gives resistance.
The kickr is one of the easiest direct drive trainers to set up.
The neo smart has a virtual flywheel which means that the resistance is computer controlled.
It requires zero tools not even an allan key.
The tacx neo 2 smart currently tops our round up of the best turbo trainers but there s not much to separate the neo 2 and the equally excellent wahoo kickr.

The kickr bike sets up in slightly less time about 20 minutes for me whereas the tacx bike was closer to 30 minutes.
If you re a cyclist an indoor bike trainer is probably the best way to take your exercise indoors.
A smart bike is an indoor bike that has a built in resistance trainer.
Tacx neo bike vs wahoo kickr bike vs wattbike atom.
An important difference between the tacx neo smart and the wahoo kickr is the flywheel that simulates the resistance.
