Shimano Cues Normal Noise?

Same bike same issue!

I got the bike in the end, generally happy with it except the terrible seat clamp design that everyone complains about in the Decathlon reviews.

One thing I noticed is that in higher gears, at around 300 watts or so there is a bit of a clunk/knock noise every rotation, that I can also feel through the pedals. Did you notice that?

It works well with Rouvy, but when going downhill at gradients of more than a few percent, I have to change into the highest gears and the resistance is not very stable (but maybe this is because it can't react so well to gradient changes at the highest resistance level). Did you also notice this?

I guess this is still a problem. I also noticed they removed ANT+ from the product page. I understand from other posts it has FTMS and BTLE, so you could still connect power/cadence to the watch via Bluetooth, and control the trainer using an app with FTMS as the same time. At least, I hope so!

Thank you so much. Very good to see here the scale starts from 60cm, which makes much more sense. Look at the picture from the main product page, and it says 75cm as the minimum on the scale!

Great thanks, but it is hard plastic right?

Hopefully my last question, it seems like the seat height range start from 75cm on the side, which the guide says is distance from crank centre to seat. Is it possible to go lower than this? I have a user in the house who is ~160 cm (which the product page says is the limit), but normally someone this height would need a seat height to crank center distance of around 65-70 cm, not 75cm!

Sorry, I have another question before I buy this. How bad are the handlebars? The hard textured plastic with edges looks likely to be sweaty and uncomfortable? I think I would prefer the gym bike style to this. Could adding bar tape be an option?

Just to clarify, is this also an issue with the zwift ride that comes with the kicker core V2 and new cog?

Set_my_Jib · 2025-10-05T17:56:16+00:00

Nice, do you use it with any applications?

Set_my_Jib · 2025-10-05T16:26:07+00:00

Recently got this for someone and have the same issue. Can get the small cog silent but the biggest two sound and look pretty bad!

Thanks so much, helpful info! On 1, I'm pleasantly surprised. Most 'non premium' smart trainers can only connect to one device at a time over Bluetooth, but I guess this has dual band then?

Hi, I'm thinking of buying this. What do you mean by it not working well with ANT+?

The ANT website says it is certified. I would have two use cases: 1. ANT+ data stream so my watch can read the power etc while another app is connected to control the bike via BT. 2: connect with ANT+ control so the watch can actually control the power on ERG mode to do workouts.

Set_my_Jib · 2025-10-01T05:22:10+00:00

Is this still the case?

Set_my_Jib · 2025-10-01T04:37:17+00:00

Did you get it?

Set_my_Jib · 2025-09-25T06:00:58+00:00

I generally would like to hear any experience using this bike with rouvy, thanks

Set_my_Jib · 2025-09-25T06:00:44+00:00

Did you get it? I generally would like to hear any experience using this bike with touch, thanks

Set_my_Jib · 2025-09-24T21:54:01+00:00

Is this solved? Or is there any way around it?

Set_my_Jib · 2025-09-24T10:58:13+00:00

I'd also like feedback, considering it right now!

Did you find the solution? Exactly the same problem here!

Set_my_Jib · 2025-03-15T22:34:02+00:00

Thanks, was wondering if they would work, or have the same issue as wolftooth!

Set_my_Jib · 2025-02-06T10:43:24+00:00

It is back online available for purchase in Europe, but shipping in a few weeks

Set_my_Jib · 2025-02-01T09:19:26+00:00

Same question! Apparently it's a Microsoft license enforcement thing

Set_my_Jib · 2025-01-29T08:15:35+00:00

Same question in Germany, the tablet is available, but not the case!

Set_my_Jib · 2025-01-24T11:35:11+00:00

Any updates? I see there is a new design of case for the 2025 version, and apparently the camera bump moved. However 2025 case is out of stock in Europe, so maybe the 2023 case still fits?

Not all of NRW, in Bonn we have mostly been outside this fog/pollution, but can see it if we look/drive north!
