Hey bro.. I am not to sure about how the tacx flow will be but from my own experience and many others as well..

Direct drive trainers feels much better to ride on than those who aren't.. The heavier the fly wheel the "road feel" will be better

Me and most forumers here are currently using the Elite Turbo Muin, it's actually a dumb trainer and resistance is generated as you shift your gears..

What I love about the muin is that it does not need any power sockets to work with, i've brought it to races for warm ups

I feel that smart trainers are just for convenience sake.. Dumb trainers are here to stay laugh.gif

Yeah rodalink brings in elite but I think manufacturers are currently pushing their smart trainers atm😂😂..

You can check out the giant shop at Aman Suria, Ruey is the person you should be looking for!

ksyrium vs racing zero? what apang think?

R0 feels alot stiffer and no freehub problem unlike many mavic wheels. With mavic u need more servicing or u will get the "mavic death squeal" after prolonged use.

imo, aero is the way to go generally.

if you see cannondale's latest systemsix white paper / marketing literature, basically with their wheelset knox 64 on that aero bike is faster up hills up to 6% vs their lightweight supersix evo.

of coz power output and weight of rider & bike will change that %, but just an idea. it was 300w and 75kg rider weight in that white paper.

Technically aero is faster but from practicality standpoint alu wheels is better for the high mileage rider.. You dont have to worry about your carbon brake track failing at neck braking speeds. You dont have to worry about wet braking. You dont have to worry about hitting the many hundreds of potholes on our roads. And i dont need some plastic levers just to remove my tires - just smack out ur trusty shimano qr and it does the job.
