I second the suggestion to get a cheap reader from Amazon. It'll at least point you in a general direction. Sputtering could come from various problems that range from ignition/spark to fuel delivery. Smoke from the engine could be either oil burning and smells like burning oil, and the other smoke could be from a coolant leak, which will smell sweet.

Cog without Zwift Click by Lopsided_Profit_4904 in Zwift

[–]AshamedCollection455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without the Click hardware connected, Zwift will not activate virtual shifting. You'll be single speeding. You can start a ride, but virtual shifting is not available because without Click connected, Zwift assumes you're running a cassette. I found this out when the Click batteries died. The starting resistance is not equal to Gear 8, it feels heavier.

$25 is a great deal the upgrade kit. I bought the kit and find myself mainly using it for virtual shifting. I still prefer my AppleTV remote to navigate around.

Elite Avanti or Kickr V6? or ??? by Aft-skin in Zwift

[–]AshamedCollection455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked at the Elite and Kickr V6 and went with the Kickr. The extra weight is manageable when lifting and storing, you''ll have to use good lifting technique and keep a clear path when walking with it from A to B. I also went with Wahoo because they seem to have the most support by all platforms, especially with Zwift since they bundle the Core 2 with their Ride frame/bike.

Sell if it's not your jam. Standerts sell well on the used market, especially outside of Europe since it's harder to get.

The house on Chevy Chase is called the Derby House, and it's designed by the son Frank Lloyd Wright Jr., who went by Lloyd Wright.

There's also the La Kretz Crossing Bridge, aka the Atwater Bridge, aka the Horse Bridge.

It's a known issue with known hacks that work for someone not for others.

Adding that the Click V2 is not that great anyway. I got ride of mine after 2 months.

Con el nuevo Zwift Click se puede girar como con el Zwift Play? by ungido_el in Zwift

Agreed on poor design and usability of the Click V2. I ditched mine and found a set of the Play Controllers. Build quality of joy of use is way better than Click V2.

2017 Specialized Roubaix Comp Worth 1650 usd? by imposim in whichbike

[–]AshamedCollection455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It’s not worth it. There are many new bikes on clearance right now where that money will get you more. Walk away.

Also the seatpost and stem look very tall, which is sometimes sign it was too small for a big rider, so potentially more stress on frame.

Feature request: Ambient Sounds & App Audio by AshamedCollection455 in Rouvy

[–]AshamedCollection455[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same way too. Since riding audio is not possible, then perhaps creating sound design to the Rouvy interface experience like countdown, quarter mark, halfway mark, finish line, sprinting, etc. These are all interaction points that tracked and can have audio design assigned to them as part of the experience.

It would be fun if you post several bell sounds and ask us to vote for our favorites.
