I run a Elite Direto on Zwift and find that I have problems getting into a supertuck. It seems that the trainer is reading the energy stored in the flywheel and I have to wait for it to spin down before it will register I have stopped pedaling. Is this correct?

Can I get a recommendation for Bluetooth earphones that can handle Discord I find my current ones battery barely last an hour? annoyingly they start disconnecting when they show 20% charge.

Sarthek posted:This may be a silly question, but I thought I'd post it here before subjecting myself to a range of off-topic tirades on the Zwift forums: is there a way to cap the number of other riders Zwift renders on a route? I believe you can also just turn off or disconnect your wifi/internets for the length of your ride, but you will need to reconnect to upload your ride to Zwift, Strava etc.

Ended up stopping around the equivalent to 20.5 minutes with a 46% start. Honestly better than I expected since the only cycling I've done in the last 8 months were in the last 3 weeks. Number can only go up from here right

Crumps Brother posted:I've been spraying things down with some water and wiping it off with a towel after my workouts. Saw a Muc-Off product specifically for post-workout wipedowns and it got me wondering if I should be putting something else in my water to help. Vinegar or something maybe? Anyone have any thoughts on that? With carbon you are pretty safe but any steel or aluminium components are at risk from the salt in your sweat. If it's a dedicated trainer bike I would recommend carbon or a old set of cheap steel bars. And maybe remove the bar tape.

spf3million posted:That's why I was considering putting it in the biggest rear cog and running ERG mode, i.e. never shifting so the wider chain wouldn't rub on the adjacent cogs when in a higher gear. I actually think you will be ok with this, I had a almost new 9speed chain I tried on a tenspeed cassette, it worked but the lovely missing link I had would catch. Perhaps you could fit a ten speed chain which should work with 9 and 11?

tylertfb posted:Speaking of the Elite Suito trainer: I lost (threw away) the thru-axle adapters for standard M12 x 142 spacing because I didn't own a disc-brake bike at this time last year. Well, now I do have one and want to use it on the trainer. Does anybody have a set lying around that they could measure? I know the ID and thread size obv but how about the OD of the non-drive side adapter and it's length? If I can't get a replacement set sent to me, I can easily make a set in the machine shop at work.

LRADIKAL posted:I don't sprint that hard and tilt my bike everywhere. I don't think I've really pushed more than 500 watts for any significant length of time. If you insist on swinging your bike around like that, shouldn't you get one of those tilting platforms? I can only hit 1000 watts for a few seconds but it was enough to make my bike move across my kitchen floor. Now my bike is in my conservatory and have the front wheel wedged up against a cupboard, problem solved. Though the movement seemed to be more up and down of the front wheel rather than from side to side.

Heliosicle posted:What lag do you all normally get between the gradient you see in Zwift and the trainer increasing the resistance? I'm using an ANT+ dongle on the end of a usb cable to connect to the H3 and it seems to be around a second for me. Not so long but enough that it's distracting and makes it hard to estimate how hard to push over small sharp hills.

TobinHatesYou posted:Maybe I'm in the minority, but most of the time I don't even pair the resistance unit in Zwift. For me the immersion from Zwift is from chasing rabbits, not from experiencing rollers or steep climbs. I actually find gradient changes detrimental in Zwift racing. I want to shift on my own terms, not when the resistance unit suddenly starts kicking my rear end or drops out from underneath me. If I am just watching a video or listening to a podcast, I will sometimes not pair the resistance of my trainer. I think some early trainers would report power but not change resistance, but that's not really a smart trainer.

Angryhead posted:I'm a bit worried about sweating on a tablet if it's directly ahead of you and doing an effort out of the saddle, but it's so standard that it must be a non-issue, especially if you wipe it after a ride. Still keeping mine off to the side a bit though. I started Zwifting with a Ipad mini on a Camera tripod. I dont think sweat harmed the Ipad, but I had a huge problem with ghost touches from dripping sweat, trying to mop up sweat from a touch screen at full effort is a pain. I am now on a PC with a 30inch screen and a old phone for the companion app mounted with a quadlock. If you use what you already have it doesn't cost a penny, For very long indoor rides I used a ironing board to hold drinks and snacks.
