tacx flux 2 smart trainer vs wahoo kickr core

Obv, going for one of these direct drive units means i need a thru axle adapter and cassette, so im trying to factor everything into the cost. When i bought my current trainer, i was new to indoor riding, and direct drive wasnt as much of a thing as it is now ( almost 4 years on) - so my question is: what noticeable real world difference should i expect with either a KICKR Core or Flux S vs the wheel on KICKR Snap? And which would you choose out of the 3?Ĭost seems to be the biggest influence here, making me look at the Snap, given ive tried one and like it - i just dont want to do my usual and regret the decision and end up going direct drive in the future anyways. However, at this level: is it worth moving to direct drive? Im running ultegra R8000 with a 11-34 cassette outside, oh and i use thru axles. I use my outdoor carbon roadie indoors, and have done for years - wheel on trainers arent much of an issue for me, tyre wear doesnt seeem to be a problem either. The Suito seems better in many ways, but I also have not been impressed by what I see for support on things like power reporting and their typically poor ERG mode use.

Wahoo KICKR Core easy installation (6x) Silent (4x) quiet (18x) Easy to install (8x) Stable (. I have never liked the Flux for a range of reasons. Tacx Flux 2 Smart T2980 + FREE Accessory Pack worth 130 vs. I’d take the Kickr Core from the 3 you listed.

I recently tried my brother-in-laws KICKR snap and the difference is night and day over what i already have. To more directly answer your question, personally. I’m outgrowing my Tacx Flow Smart trainer and its time to move on.
