Wahoo Fitness has announced a power measurement update to KICKR ROLLR, in order to provide existing and future KICKR ROLLR users with a more immersive indoor training experience.
KICKR ROLLR features a dual-roller design, accommodating a wide range of bikes without the need to remove the rear wheel. The new update sees power measurement included. Wahoo adds that KICKR ROLLR now… ‘provides consistent power readings when using the same equipment and gearing, enabling users to follow structured workouts and track their progress consistently from session to session when using the same equipment and gearing.’
While the power accuracy may not match direct-drive trainers due to the free-moving rear end of the bicycle, it delivers a new feature for riders less concerned with precision and more focused on their fitness journey.
Driven by onboard power and consistent power readings, users will be able to enjoy an immersive indoor riding experience via Wahoo SYSTM, Zwift, Rouvy, TrainingPeaks Virtual, MyWhoosh and other virtual cycling platforms.
For those seeking enhanced accuracy, Wahoo’s Power Meter Connect feature allows users to pair the KICKR ROLLR with Wahoo SPEEDPLAY Power Pedals or other third-party power meters, ensuring precise power data for interactive workouts or virtual racing.
Gareth Joyce, CEO of Wahoo, said “We’re excited to announce this latest update to the KICKR ROLLR, bringing consistent power readings to a trainer already known for its simplicity and ease of use.
“The KICKR ROLLR is a perfect choice for those riders starting their indoor cycling journey thanks to its natural ride feel, quick set-up, and now the ability to train with power based data insights.”
