Brill thanks...hope for me then. Do you have your usb ANT+ dongle anywhere in particular? Is there a best position? Is the Garmin cadence ant+. That might be a stupid question..sorry


thanks

Sorry then I do not know why it's not updating .. But change back to manual anyway stops it picking up other devices ..

Hi...I'm being needy i'm sorry. Anybody else have a WAHOO RPM Cadence Sensor and using it with a BKOOL PRO?
I'm having a connection issue and when it does show up in the app it's reading way lower than it should be. Is there a correct placement for the BKOOL ant+ dongle so it connects to the trainer, your HRM and cadence sensor please?

cheers

Mine works fine with bkool and much more accurate than the cadence sensor built into bkool. My ant+ is connected via an extension USB lead and sits in between bottom bracket and bkool unit. My wahoo hrm picked up perfectly too.

Thanks for replying...does your RPM show up as a paired device please?

I do also have USB extension cable so that the ant + is right next to the simulater ( 5 cm ) ..

Just my luck to get one that will not update

I think my goat session for Passo de Gavia needs approving, I had to stop early on to put the chain back on. It lost me some time, but good to have some ghosts in the distance to try and chase down.

Runar Norse Aas man. You're in! . I'm getting confused with all these names!

Thank you :-)

Did my first Leage ride on the Passo de Gavia. 6.5 km finales this evening. There was three other races scheduled for today, but I hope I can re-schedule them for a later date, as long it's within the October 31st limit?

Bike out being repaired-broken derailleur hanger- so cannot double check but pretty sure it does.

I have also connected my Garmin HRM and RPM sensors to the Bkool Ant+. Both shows up as paired. When I tried to connect the speed sensor that I have mounted on the back wheel hub, Bkool asked me to connect to the Bkool unit instead.

Ant dongle in usd ext cable sitting next to the trainer garmin cadence sensor is ant+
It also worked for me with out the usb ext just plugged straight in to laptop to get the cadence sensor to pair u have to turn the pedal a few times

 

[Vertego]

Just one quick query, having got back on the BKOOL for the first few rides in a long time...why have I jumped up from Amateur 1 to Amateur 6? Surely, a normal progression would be from 1 to 2 to 3 etc. before reaching 6.

Wahoo RPM replacement on its way from the kind support people in Atlanta. Thanks to all who responded...
