Wahoo Fitness Announces Major Update to KICKR ROLLR

Wahoo Fitness has announced a major update to its KICKR ROLLR smart indoor trainer, providing existing and future KICKR ROLLR users with a more immersive indoor training experience, following a number of new features that have been added.

Who’s it for?

• KICKR ROLLR redefines smart trainers with its innovative dual-roller design, accommodating a wide range of bikes without the need to remove the rear wheel. This quick, hassle-free setup is perfect for multi-rider households or anyone who values simplicity in their training. By allowing the rear wheel to move freely, KICKR ROLLR delivers a smooth, natural ride that closely mimics outdoor cycling, enhancing comfort for longer, more enjoyable sessions.
• The KICKR ROLLR is perfect for beginners, casual riders, and fitness lovers looking to stay active indoors without a complicated setup.

What’s new?

• NEW Consistent Power for Structured Training: The onboard power of KICKR ROLLR 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 dependable performance for riders less concerned with precision and more focused on their fitness journey.
• NEW Enhanced Virtual Riding Experience (works with Wahoo SYSTM, Zwift, Rouvy, TrainingPeaks Virtual, MyWhoosh and more): Driven by onboard power and consistent power readings, users will be able to enjoy an even more engaging and immersive indoor riding experience.
• Power Meter Connect: 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. This flexibility makes the KICKR ROLLR adaptable to a wide range of training needs.

Gareth Joyce, CEO of Wahoo, commented, “We’re excited to announce this latest update to the KICKR ROLLR, bringing consistent power reading to a a trainer already known for its simplicity and ease of use. The KICKR ROLLR is a perfect choice for those rides starting their indoor or cycling journey thanks to its natural ride feel, quick set-up, and now the ability to train with power based insights .
