OK bit of an update
as im working 6 days a week atm and the spare part for my turbo is £45 plus postage i have been mooching around ebay and facefluff market place and i have found a kicker snap for £30 which i should be collecting tomorrow afternoon , listed as in perfect working order with all the bits .

I had one of those as my first smart trainer. Decent bit of kit really.
If it is in full working order, then £30 is a veritable bargain.

well the seller just pulled the sale as he had a wheel-set plus tyre he wants to sell but they were listed as an option to the sale and not part of the price or photos that now apparently he has someone else wanting the lot , i doubt it very much but going from £30 to £100 he can go whistle , i have now found a tacx flow for £40 in good nick with the price and collection confirmed

picked up the trainer and it seems ok , only one bug is on mywhoosh the speed and power reading are unrealistically low as im pedalling harder but my power is about half . I am not sure if i need to calibrate or it might be mywhoosh doesnt support the trainer .
Could also be the tyre was not tight enough on the roller maybe and im getting slippage ?

I have seen several posts suggesting that calibration is important.
When my tyre slipped on my old Tacx (dumb) turbo trainer it was immediately obvious - it was like riding a road bike on a muddy or icy road!

fixed , i needed to calibrate using the app that sets the correct amount of roller pressure on the tyre .
Don’t tell you’ve been doing that since the 11th of October. 🫣

no tbh i had a bit of a falling out on another thread and with my mental health struggling lately i did a flounce but as it really was my fault i apologise the other member involved ( i cant remember who it was ) on the amazon thread .
