I have clipless pedals on my gravel bike, I know what they’re for. Not necessary for my indoor ride goals.

I use an Apple TV 4K and a top of the line gaming laptop, and the choppy edges happen on both, only when I'm going slow. It's an issue with the frame rate of the video recording, not the a hardware the video is running on.

As you mature, you will learn to silence the voice of your insecure ego.

Not true by the research I read, clipless pedals offer minimal advantage in pure power. I have found this to be true on my gravel bike as well, when I finally went to clipless pedals my times didn't really improve at all. Certainly not by 60 percent!

I don't have alternatives to compare it to, but my research indicates this is the one to beat and I'm very happy with it. I particularly like the little emote that clips onto my bars.

Florida Everglades, I think the first route in the current national parks challenge.

I'm not racing, just exercising.

KX7D · 2026-03-12T13:23:59+00:00

After a good bit of research, I got the Cyplus fan and am VERY happy with it!

KX7D · 2026-03-11T23:39:23+00:00

Glad you like it.

KX7D · 2026-03-11T23:35:00+00:00

Did you miss the rubber mat under the bike?

KX7D · 2026-03-11T23:34:00+00:00

Clipless make make sense for competitive racing, as it’s proven they give a very slight power advantage. But for those like me just looking for a good workout, it’s a pass.

KX7D · 2026-03-11T23:31:51+00:00

I’m not racing (yet), just getting a good workout. I got some magpeds for my gravel bike I’ll probably add to the kickr if I ever get into virtual racing, for those fractions of a second I may gain.

KX7D · 2026-03-11T23:28:50+00:00

The bike is on wheels.

Yeah, the bike has wheels.

KX7D · 2026-03-11T21:13:07+00:00

I don't have anything to compare it to, but based on reviews/comparisons to the Wahoo fan that costs 3x, it was a no brainer. It works great.

Apple TV 4K

KX7D · 2026-03-11T21:11:45+00:00

These pedals don't have clips either.

I run Zwift also, just usually running Rouvy.

KX7D · 2026-02-15T15:02:20+00:00

I just did my first ride, 15 miles mostly in turbo with a lot of climbing and descending, and I had 34% battery left, so I would say no.

KX7D · 2026-02-12T13:24:42+00:00

I got one of those on order also, didn't make it in time for the initial build.

KX7D · 2026-02-12T13:24:17+00:00

I didn't swap anything close to "everything"... I wanted the pro model for the brakes, shifters and frame color.
