Hi there im new to this smart trainer thing and not that good with tech stuff so any answers would help in simpleton talk lol.
So ive just got a Bkool smart trainer no instructions.
I have a samsung tablet and have rouvy cycling app on it. I like the rouvy thing.
Anyway ive plugged in my Bkool trainer got the rouvy app on and connected to the power scource on rouvy. All good so far i think. Ive chosen a route to do looks good again.
Now heres the issue. Im going along a flat rd on rouvy but im really struggling to turn the pedals in a 39/20 gear. (I race in TTs in a 54/15 gear easy in the real world) so why is this Bkool smart trainer making it so hard too turn the pedals around.
On the rouvy site i put in a 180ftp not that i know what my ftp is and also i put my weight in correctly. Its was so hard to pedal. I changed the ftp to 150 a few days later to try that. But no difference.
Can someone help? I dont have a Bkool App do i need one too set the turbo up? If so which App as there seems to be a few and are there any fees? I only want to ride on rouvy
