Interactive turbo ideas?

[Disabledcyclist40]

Years ago I had a tacx I magic

Today I'm considering another turbo, but it absolutely has to be an interactive or smart one, I couldn't face judt riding at a wall.

But tacx seem to have millions of different ones without too much of an explanation into the difference.

What is the most cost effective way of getting interactive on a turbo and what do you recommend? Ideally don't want to spend a whole chunk of money

I think the Tacx flow was the cheapest smart trainer but i'm not sure if you can still get them . Couple that with zwift and you're off .

Thanks zwift looks like the perfect thing I'm looking for.

Theresa few tacx flows on ebay

Thanks

Tacx Flow is good, I have one and use it with zwift. Very stable when sat on it.

A bit noisy though, so would benefit from a concrete floor.

Halfords still seem to have them in stock:

I've got one and use it in conjunction with the films they can supply, adds another dimension to the indoor training. I've also used it with a few free Kinomaps interactive rides, works OK.

All depends on your budget £300-£1000. Tacx and Wahoo are the big players
