Having read about using a road tire i thought i would give it a go, and what a difference there is virtually no wheel slippage even when out of the saddle i think that's why im getting better in the Goat league as im able to put down the watts.
It's been on for about 2 weeks now and seems a lot more quieter as well, so give it a go every one

Shhhhhhhushhhh

I messaged Bkool about last night's missing ride for what good it will do

€2800 well it certainly has priced itself out of the main market place

Ironic that the sport crafters rollers are advertised just underneath it.
Pack some electronic wizardry into that little package and you'll have a market beating product.

Talking of SW Features my Laptop advised me of an update a few days ago when this all started.
My PC in my mans room didn't.
I only noticed today when I was trying to get AVG to accept BSim launching that just before BSim launched to the home screen an update available screen showed for a second and was then quickly overwritten by the home page launching screen.
Whatever I tried I couldn't get it to stop on the SW Ugrade page so I unloaded BSim and downloaded it from the website.
I am now on BSim v1.69 and BKool Pro 3.10
Is this what everyone else is running? I am sure someone mentioned 3.11

No idea. Never tried it. But then, no one wants to hear what's coming out of my mouth when I'm doing a goat ride

Are we saying that it is better to use a normal road tyre than a turbo tyre?? Don't they shred easily?

Have checked the chat feature in settings? I assume it uses laptop mic and speakers

I had this and got round it by deleting my log in and then restarting BSim. It then allowed me to update and then relog in - remembering to tick the remember password box
