I have a lovely old peugeot europa as my turbo bike on a basic non-smart magnetic trainer. This is not a picture of mine as mine is a little more...used, but you get the idea, 7 speed cassette, gears on down tube, gorgeous old thing.
Been looking to step up my training and get a direct drive trainer - can get my hands on a second hand kickr for 500 ish quid.
Obviously compatibility is a bit of an issue as kickr comes with 10 or 11 speed as standard. I understand that 7 speed could work with some adapting (not sure how much but I intend to google!), but i'm not sure if my hub would be the right side or if there are any other issues. As well as that would I just be wasteing my time and should I just get a second hand 10 speed and throw it on? Would love to keep the europa if I could.
Wondering if anyone had any experience of something similar and whether it is too big a job for a pretty clueless person!
