The smart trainers of today give the rider the ability to be in full control of their indoor training experience. This is made possible with integrated dual ANT+ FE-C and Bluetooth 4.0 technologies, allowing any cyclist to connect to their favourite virtual training software program, such as CycleOps VirtualTraining and Zwift, and workout how they want, with the technology they want, when they want. The experience is optimized with the faster-than-ever electromagnetic resistance, providing rapid-fire response to every change, from 0 to 1500 watts \u2013 without sacrificing maximum power.<\/p>\n<div class=\"grid grid-cols-12 gap-4\">\n<div class=\"col-span-4\">\n<a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-19437500-1471803109.jpg\" data-fileid=\"786105\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"786105\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-19437500-1471803109.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-19437500-1471803109.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-span-4\">\n<a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-10803300-1471803103.jpg\" data-fileid=\"786104\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"786104\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-10803300-1471803103.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-10803300-1471803103.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-span-4\">\n<a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-24638900-1471803114.jpg\" data-fileid=\"786106\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"786106\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-24638900-1471803114.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-24638900-1471803114.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The sleek, shrouded resistance unit is supported by the CycleOps Classic Series frame.
