While many of us would like to ride our bikes outside year-round, it's not always an option. Luckily, Wahoo Fitness understands this and has created some of the best indoor cycling products on the market. By using your bike that you know and love, and using Wahoo's industry-leading technology, the Wahoo ecosystem of products allows you to train indoors just like you train outdoors. And as the #1 Wahoo dealer in the US, ERIK'S is here to help you learn all about these great products!
THE WAHOO ECOSYSTEM
The Wahoo Ecosystem gives you the most engaging, dynamic, and realistic indoor cycling experience. Check out this video for an overview:
THE WAHOO KICKR SMART TRAINER - WIFI ENABLED
At the heart of Wahoo's indoor trainer family is the KICKR Smart Trainer, one of the most realistic-feeling and quietest trainers available today. Compatible with your favorite training apps like Zwift, TrainerRoad, and FulGaz, the KICKR lets you get the most out of your time on the bike while also having the most realistic road experience possible. When paired with these and other compatible apps, the KICKR will adjust resistance based on the terrain the app is replicating. You can even pair your KICKR with a Wahoo ELEMNT cycling computer to replicate your favorite outdoor routes inside on the trainer. A new feature like the ERG Easy Ramp makes transitions back into intervals easier by spreading the build over 10 seconds vs forcing you to a rapid rebound. Another new feature Wahoo is excited about is their built-in odometer which allows you to precisely track lifetime stats on the rides you've worked hard for.

THE WAHOO KICKR SMART BIKE
The Wahoo Fitness Kickr Bike Smart Indoor Bike offers unprecedented innovations such as integrated grade changes, customizable gearing, and simulated shifting to create the most powerful, personalized, and realistic indoor training experience.
Using Kickr's legendary flywheel technology, the Kickr Bike creates unparalleled responsiveness and power accuracy of +/- 1%. Real-time grade changes will match ascents of up to 20% and descents of -15% while allowing you to maintain speed and truly replicate the sensation of riding outdoors. Its robust steel and aluminum construction will withstand the hardest rides - even if your legs don't.
THE WAHOO KICKR CLIMB
Adding the KICKR CLIMB to your training setup lets you add another level of realism to your workout. The KICKR CLIMB raises and lowers the front of your bike to simulate climbs up to a 20% grade and descents of up to 10%. When paired with a compatible KICKR, the CLIMB adjusts automatically to match your simulated ride, making your indoor cycling experience more realistic, dynamic, and engaging. The CLIMB can also be adjusted in manual mode right from your handlebar. So aside from making your indoor ride more entertaining, what does the CLIMB do for you? The CLIMB allows you to position yourself on the bike as you would on a climb, engaging the same muscles as you would on the road and improving your pedaling technique.
THE WAHOO KICKR HEADWIND
If you've ridden indoors, you've probably spent time trying to position a box fan just right to keep you cool. And you've probably been frustrated by the lack of cooling you actually get as the wind is quickly dispersed. The KICKR Headwind is the solution. The Headwind is a Bluetooth-connected smart fan that delivers targeted airflow as you ride. You can control it manually or pair it with smart trainers, heart rate monitors, and speed sensors to gauge workout intensity and automatically adjust the fan's speed based on your efforts. The fan targets airflow at your body, where you need it most, delivering a headwind of up to 30 miles per hour to keep you cool during your toughest training sessions.
WAHOO FLOORMAT
A few key accessories will help you round out your trainer suite. The KICKR Trainer Floormat is water-resistant and anti-slip to keep your floors clean and your trainer in place. Its thickness also helps insulate noise.
EASY SETUP
Setting up your KICKR training system is amazingly easy. Most KICKR products are fully assembled in the box or only require a few bolts. And the tools are even included! Once assembled, setting your bike into the system is equally simple. Just remove the required wheels, use the included endcaps, and secure your quick releases or thru-axles.
Wahoo makes connecting even easier with their lighting fast WiFi. This connectivity offers larger data transfer and better stability, so you get fast accurate stats when you need them making this the ultimate indoor trainer for you to set goals, work out and then surpass them. Pairing the KICKR products and your smart devices is also super simple. The ANT+ or Bluetooth connections practically connect themselves.
When you're done with your training session, your bike comes out of the KICKR products quickly and easily, and the KICKR products can be stored away, taking up very little space.
