The tacx neo bike however can simulate 125kg but that s sorta a different situation. The wahoo kickr has a physical flywheel that gives resistance. Tacx neo bike vs wahoo kickr bike vs wattbike atom. The wattbike atom the stagesbike the tacx neo bike and the wahoo kickr bike.

The kickr bike sets up in slightly less time about 20 minutes for me whereas the tacx bike was closer to 30 minutes. However the tacx bike comes in roughly a standard bike box whereas the kickr bike box is a bit larger. However despite being beastly it doesn t make much noise. The neo smart has a virtual flywheel which means that the resistance is computer controlled.

An important difference between the tacx neo smart and the wahoo kickr is the flywheel that simulates the resistance. If you re a cyclist an indoor bike trainer is probably the best way to take your exercise indoors. The kickr is one of the easiest direct drive trainers to set up. 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.

By ryan jones last updated. A smart bike is an indoor bike that has a built in resistance trainer. 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 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.

Smart bikes are a piece of equipment you might be familiar with. The tacx neo 2t smart trainer is not your grandmother s indoor bike trainer stand. Beyond the wattbike it s mostly a wash between the wahoo bike the tacx bike.
