Hello, well, honestly I cannot tell you what is the problem. I could export from all major player system, back and forth. Indeed the cardio load is not transfered. Thats specific for every different ecosystem.

I do not have a garmin watch, but I am confident it will work with Elite Qubo without problem.

@activezone8574 thank you Greetings from Greece

Well, surely it is not like rim brake or disc brake. But I had a duathlon race with really heavy rain. Something what you never want to experience, and definitely not on a race. One must be really cautious with braking and brake in advance counting with longer braking ways, so could brake any time. But definitely that is a disadvantage of these wheels. If you often ride in the wet, I would also look for something else.

@@activezone8574 I'm from the Netherlands where it often rains or recently has rained leaving huge amount of pools of water where you sometimes have to go through. Sometimes during rain, sometimes heavy rain. Sometimes turn right after a pool, where a car doesn't see me despite everything. Sometimes a short downhill following a blind alley to which I must yield where there's rarely traffic, but now that I am there... Sometimes weird dogs or even crazier dog owners. Being able to reliably brake hard is very useful

Hi, sure you can, but then you have one fix resistance. Then it is up to you if you are ok with that. But then you lose all thr benefits that a smart trainer can offer. I would suggest you try that with any other app, like Rouvy or Woosh, to see if that us somehting that works for you.

Hi there, well, honestly I cannot remeber if that adapter was included or not, maybe you can check some other unboxing videos as well. Doning and doffing the wheel, well, that is quite simple, you just replace your original axel and fix the wheel.

Sure, Gps data and pulse data are transfered, but some device specific data are usually lost. Pace is transferred as well.

HI Goran, sorry, I have seen only now your question. Honestly I cannot tell you, probably on the maker official website must be some weight limitation considering the usage of the roller.

Hi, I do not really know what you mean with different top tube junction box. Different models might have different versions. Considering the toolbox at the back, there is no other option just as you see in the video, so, you cannot adjust height or anything. So, mine, at least, is in line with the top tube. Only if it is not pushed to its position, then stucks out.

@@activezone8574 thank you

Hello! Those data are not transferred, at least not with this software. Unfortunatly I do not know any way to transfer those data.

Thanks

Yes, still using it. It works as on the first day. Though hopefully soon I can make an upgrade to a direct drive roller.

Hi Joris, really good price! Congratulations! I connected to my laptop using bluetooth, and run Zwift at the begining. Then I tried a bunch of other softwares, all worked without problem. The latest I used was Bkool Cycling. Rouvy works also fine.

Hi Carl, the bike is 9,1kg with pedals included, with a carbon wheel of 1500g.

hi Krzysztof, sorry but no idea. I do not have a separate power meter, so I cannot compare. I just ride with what Elite shows.

Hi Angel, well, still works, I started to use it again two days ago. Nothing got broken or used, I hadn't had to to replace anything. And in wintertime I use it regurarly, so it is under heavy usage.

Hi, well basically yes, but this is depends on the software you are using, like Zwift, Rouvy, Bkool or others, it depends how these programs show these data.

Hi there, the bike has S-M size, you can find data about the bike geometry. Myself, I am 176cm tall, and inseam 81cm.

Hi, thanks for your comment. Yes, you can change the angle of the bars, the screw on the bars should be loosened.

Hi, I am 176cm tall.

well, I kept mine as it is, still works ok

Hi Tim, well, you can get used to both. And of course somehow they are different. Interesting that the BMC bars are closer to my body, and actually I tried to get a stem to move further away (I got the wrong stem so the original version remained). Anyway, which gives you more comfort? Honestly I cannot say one or the other. I wish the BMC could be adjusted further away, as my elbow is just is at the end of the armrest and you need to play more to get it the right adjustment. But it works you can make long rides and it is ok.

Hi, I am palnning to make a short reveiw video. So far it is ok, there are two main things to mention, the cockpit, it is difficilult or time consuming to adjust. Even now I am planning to replace thr stem, see how it is then. The other one is those adjustment screws at the rear wheel. I guess they may get loose or move but sometimes the wheel start to touch the brake, so then you need to stop and readjust. I will try to minimalise the movement of these screws. I will make a video about these points. Oherwise it is a nice fast bike, and afterall I am happy with it.

@@activezone8574 Thanks for your reply.. i got it and very happy i did I did ride 150kms in the weekend .. coming from an endurance bike .. The Timemachine is a fast bike 😃

How heavy is the bike as is

Hi, well, good question. Honestly I do not know, but I think Shane Miller - GP Lama, once showed this in one of his videos, if I remember well.

Hi Risayogi, in dry no issues with braking. Last summer I was in Austria and got into the mountains with these wheels, well, next time I take an Alu wheel. So, the wheels are great for flat and rolling terrain, but not ideal for descents, in my opinion. I just had to pull the brakes too hard, and my arms got tired. The rims did not melt, but it was not a long descent either.

Hi Jamal, I use regurarly the phased training, no issues whatsoever. I also run on typically on a 3km track, back and forth, whenever doing intvervals, but the gps is spot on, always the same distance is measured. Have your checked the automatic stop function? Or better saying the start next phase automatically box when planning the phased training?

@@activezone8574 thanks for reply. Yeah so I think I have figured out the issue. to day I ran 8x1000 1 min rest (with auto start next phase) in the 1 minute break/ rest phase I was walking around to prevent stiff legs. So what I found out is that in my rest I walked a total 15 meter and the clock is adding the 15 meter in to the work phase to get the total planned distance of 1 km in the "work" phase. + normally i start my flying start when the work phase is showing up. there I found out that the gps starts kicking in asap after the "work display" is disappearing.So for todays workout I ended up running 8x1000 witch I planned in the app. and I had "auto laps" on for very 1 km. I ended up start at one place, run and see on the display the auto lap pip up but still have som meters to goo in the work phase. Dunno if any of this is makes sense to you but for me and what I experienced it makes sense hehe.

@@jamal6509 Hi, yes, I understand what you mean, I also walk or jog between hard session and finally end up basically with more km-s due to these extra walks. So, I rather have 400m hard Zone3/4 and 400m Zone2, and not 1min rest between them.

HI, well, the weight is 345g, just measured it. Considering when it gets brittle, its hard to say. The visor is quite nice, there is only a minimal gap and between the visor and your face, no insect got it around. I really like it, in sunny warm days it is not the best climbing helmet, otherwise it is ideal. And its aero 😁🤙

Absolutely. They are now on my new bike (a review still to come) but they are just fantastic. Although this time I would probaly go for a deeper well, maybe 60mm.

Hi, yes, that is the function I use a lot. You go to Add Training and choose PHASED training. There you can mix distance and duration and then you can add repeat phases. Additionally you can choose if you want the next phase to start automarically or manually. Nice features from Polar.

@@activezone8574 Thank you 😊

Good point! I am not sure if I can modify this video, but maybe I make some new ones.

Hi, well, since this is my first carbon bike, I cannot really make a good comparision, but in Canyon line up this supposed to be the allrounder bike, or more climbing bike. It does not have the aeroframe shape. I really like the stifness, but as I said I just can compare against my old AL bike, which is a different category,

@@activezone8574 Which category? i have a ftiness and search for a carbon bike... it is a huge difference overall??

@@Godspeed961 Definitely is stiffer. I said it is different category as there is a huge step up when changing to carbon frame. It climbs much better, and in general you feel that the frame is in one piece, if you can say something like this. If you are serious about riding your bike and train maybe against the clock, you ride several tousand of kilometers or miles, if the seconds, minutes counts when you ride, go for a carbon frame. If once in while you ride, you will not see a big benefit in getting a carbon frame.

@@activezone8574 thx for your time mate !

Hi! I have just made some exercise and tried to take off the visor. Well, it's not so easy, but can be done with one hand, and definetely needs some practice in advance. As the visor is held by a string your need to take it out from its place progressivly. After few minutes I could do it without issue. But as you also said, and I have the same opinion, you do not realy need to take it off. Just ride :) Tri forever 😁😁😁❤

@@activezone8574 tx very much for your explaination !!!!! I have ordered it and i receive it certainly tomorrow.until now i had a "met estro" from about 2013 in perfect condition...it is gonna change:no more sunglasses,a visiere,the comfort and certainly the quality...Can you tell me if you make something special for the glass and the antifog treatment??cheers.see you soon. PS:i am going to take time to discover your channel man.XXXXXX

@@fivestars4681 I do not use anything special to clean the visor. Some water and cloth, or just wipe it dry. Try not to touch with your fingers as then it gets greasy. Other then that no special maintenance from my side . And thanks for exploring my channel 🤙😄👍

Hi! I haven't had any issues with my wheels. The spokes are just fine. I am 72kg, plus clothes, but I think the wheels are well built. They should resist the load :) I think by now I must have 5000km in the wheels, or maybe more and planning to put in few times more :))

Absolutely right! 😉 I mistyped it. Thanks for the remark, I will try to correct it where I can.

@@activezone8574 thank you so much for answering. I have been considering the RYOT44. They offer life time warranty on that model, but I'm on the fence because I can't find reviews and I never have seen the FFWD wheels before in any shop or with the guys that I ride with. They are also a bit more expensive than the zipp 303s, but I like the DT350 on the ffwd.

RYOT44 seems to be a new release. What I really like beside the aero benefits, the stiffness. Probably the RYOT44 is also a stiff wheel. I didn't know what is a wheel stiffnes like I got these FFWD wheels. Then I swapped them back to my old Zonda wheels to train with them on the roller. What I can say, that I am totally satisfied with my FFWD wheels, the hubs are smooth, I do enjoy riding them :)

@@activezone8574 thanks. I ordered the RYOT44. I didn't get them yet but when I do ill make a video.

@@activezone8574 i forgot to ask: did you keep the stock 18T star ratchet or did you upgrade to 24T or 36T? Thanks.

Unfortunately I don't think there is one for IOS, at least I could not find it.

@@activezone8574 thanks a lot, I can operate it on Android phone, it is a really good solution, for suunto to Nike, I will try

I also decided to get these wheels based on some review from the net, I guess it was Cycling or something similar channel. They also praised the wheels, and they are on a good price. I went for it, and not regret it. They are indeed nice wheels. If you can get them on a good price then its a smart choice.

@@activezone8574 there is one offer on alltricks for 1200euro tubular 45mm with 240 dtswiss You think it s a good price

@@phoenixaroui8712 well, that's ok. I have got mine for 1024Euro but with DT350 on bike24.com. The 1200Euro for the dt240 version is ok, more or less the same deal I have got.

Hi Augustine, in order to connect to Zwift you do not need any extra gadgets. Plug in and search and that's all, straight forward. The indoor trainer - if you use bluetooth connection, can connect one item at the time, so if you connect it to you watch or head unit, than it will not connect to your pc or tablet. So, you need to connect to the laptop or pc first, and then it should be ok. In the video, I had just explained that I tried to connect parallely the roller to the laptop and then to my watch, but it did not work, as it cannot broadcast it via two channels. But alone to zwift, if works fine. Should at least 😀

Active Zone Hey great thanks for the detailed reply

Enjoy your wheels! 😁🤙
