    Thanks for the review. I don't have big Watts so I might pick one up. I find it good enough for polarised training and having the big efforts done outside.

    Hi, great review, many thanks. One of your replies below was
    'You can just start pedaling away if you want. No need to pair it to any app. You can pair it to a bike computer like a Garmin if you want to just record your workout'.
    Your reply is exactly what I want from a direct drive trainer. I currently have a wheel on trainer and would like to move to a direct drive now. I always just pair it to my Garmin Edge 520 and peddle away. Would you recommend this as the best direct drive for my use? One last request is no power supply necessary so the batteries are a positive as well. Many thanks.

    • @SmartBikeTrainers
      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 2 lety +1

      For a budget trainer, this one isn’t bad and will do the job if you are just looking to pair it to your Garmin and ride. And yes, it only works on batteries.

      The Tacx NEO doesn’t need a power supply. Also the CYCLPLUS 2T doesn’t require power to operate. I should have my full review on that one soon.

    • @SmartBikeTrainers
      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes you can. Just pair your power meter and the power source. You don’t even need to pair this trainer and just use it for resistance.

    For similar money, is there a better option? Was looking at the Kickr Snap but this seems like a better option unless I'm missing something? I like the idea of not having tire wear compared to the Snap. I'm stateside and this is showing as $370 on Amazon here. Thanks!

    • @SmartBikeTrainers
      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 3 lety

      The kickr snap is interactive and supports sim and erg mode riding. It’s a much better trainer. The T100 only measures and broadcasts power and is not interactive. Hope this helps.

      Also, consider the noise level and your tire, these are some reasons we choose a direct drive trainer😀

    Hi. Great video. I just purchased the Magene t100. I'm riding a 8 speed Specialized cassette. I installed an 11 speed cassette on the trainer. it keeps skipping and my connection to the app is sketchy. Any thoughts. Thank you

    • @SmartBikeTrainers
      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 2 lety

      If your bike is 8 speed, you need to use an 8 speed cassette on the trainer. Cassette shouldn’t have anything to do with connection to app. Sounds like a different issue. Maybe battery weak?

    After watching few reviews on youtube, I've decided to buy Magene T100. Funny thing is that I can't calibrate trainer with Edge 830 and both of them (trainer on Zwift) are showing different speed and distance. I found in setting of trainer in Edge 830 that it's possible to change circumference of wheel, but what for? Have you change wheel weight in 830?

      @@getbornxcv tak, cały poprzedni sezon jesienno-zimowy przejeździłem na nim. Sprawuje się super, ale teraz dołożyłbym kilka stówek do trenażer smart, z regulacją oporu. Jego moc wystarcza, ale czasami czuje się niedosyt. Natomiast super działa ze Zwiftem, który sam przelicza moc i kadencję na prędkość plus dostosowuje prędkość do nachylen. Polecam, bo trenażer ze te kasę jest super.

      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 3 lety +1

      I haven’t had the T300 to test out yet so I can speak of that one or compare the two trainers. At that price range, I would look into the kickr core or Saris H3.

    Does the Magene T100 trainer have to be used with apps such as Zwift, Trainer
    Road, Sufferfest etc. , or can i just hop on and start pedaling away?

    • @SmartBikeTrainers
      @SmartBikeTrainers  Před 3 lety

      You can just start pedaling away if you want. No need to pair it to any app. You can pair it to a bike computer like a Garmin if you want to just record your workout.
