Macbook pro intel i5 2018 ,15.1 (latest software version) Zwift (latest version from website)

I used to bike perfectly zwift on Mac. But after updating the 15.1 mac os version, zwift couldn’t load up. Mostly stuck on white loading screen. Then forced quite and do it repeatedly, 1 out of 6-10 times , it popped up loading on blue screen which showing successful login, blah blah blah loading screens and take it forever .

I have done Clean Install zwift Delete zwift files on documents Clear safari Re download And all the possible things i found on zwift forum.

Any one have the same problem with me?

Hi everyone!!

I just started biking on Zwift and am super addicted. I’ve never been fond of biking but for some reason, love it on Zwift. I’d love to know people’s tips on how to progress - how many miles is too much at the beginning, how should I be fueling, etc.

I did a 25 mile route my second day and definitely overdid it - my knees and legs struggled to recover.

Thank you in advance!!!

With 5mins left to go on my first FTP test the power dropped to 0, I tried to reconnect my smart trainer to Zwift and it wasnt appearing (couldnt pair through phone /bluetooth directly) even though the bluetooth pairing indicator was flashing.

I was using the Zwift on windows paired to my Wahoo kickr snap via the zwift companion app on my phone.

Has this happened to anyone else before? Pretty frustrating to have a technical issue ruin the results of the test

Hello everyone! I'm new to Zwift and have some questions about FTP settings. I've read that Zwift can automatically measure your FTP without needing to do a specific FTP test. I'm just getting back into riding and have done about three rides totaling around 26 miles. However, when I check my profile, the FTP box is empty, but the workouts show an FTP of 276, which feels way too high for me.

Any advice on how to set up the auto-measure feature would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello

I'm planning to buy the Zwift KICKR CORE with the Cog v2 and I've been thinking about buying a cheap vintage bike to use it on, any technical questions I need to take into account when looking for a bike to be compatible?

thanks

This group was so helpful with my fan question the other week so I’m back with another:

What mat do you use to prevent indents in your floor with the Ride? My Zwift Ride is on a Peloton mat which sits on thin carpet. The Kickr Core and bike stem are leaving deep indents in my floor after only having it for 3 weeks.

Looking for something that is thicker, stable, and ideally under $50 USD.

I had a 1200+W data spike which unlocked 3 achievements (1000W, 1100W and 1200W) and could potentially mess up my power curve/ftp calculations in zwift

Hi there,

I’m a UK based handcyclist and have just moved into a new place. Currently using my Mac for zwift but looking to get a wall mounted tv and looking for recommendations.

Ideally should be smart so I can cast my screen and watch a show or something on the tv while having zwift still on the mac screen. Doesn’t need to be anything too fancy, looking for screen size 40-55inch.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

Just placed my order. Couldn’t wait for the new Victory and now this is shipping with the v2 cog.

What do I need to do before it arrives?

Do I need a wheel block/stand?

I am prepared to get a fan but how do I set this thing up with my laptop, iPad or iPhone?

Do I use my sram force d2 crank power meter/cadence or the built in trainer stuff?

Thanks in advance…

Hello everyone,

Tomorrow I will be riding the Alpe du zwift for the first time. I come to you with the question of what settings would be best for my first time. My FTP is 2.5w/kg, for the first time I just want to ride without any pressure on the result. I have a zwift ride and the default setting is sequential gear shifting and 50% trainer difficulty, I do my workouts in erg mode so so far I have not felt the need to change it. What gear shift settings and difficulty of the trainer should I choose to ride comfortably without worrying that I will run out of gears?

Thanks in advance for all the answers and advice!

Hi everyone. I just joined the zwift community and put my Cannondale on a wahoo kicker core with zwift hub.

I updated the clicker firmware and the apps. And it connected smoothly. I then tried to calibrate. No calibration option. So I went ahead and did a trainer ride. I guess I didn't realise that would mean the app would control my gear changes or difficulty??? Anyway i couldn't change gear and the easier gears were too easy and the hard gears and high wattages it wanted me to do for one minute were basically impossible. I couldn't even turn the pedals.

I looked again for a calibration setting but I didn't find it.

I haven't done the tutorial I couldn't find that but now I have and I will do it tomorrow.

So any tips ? And any ideas on how I can calibrate.

Thanks

So i've recently purchased the Kickr Move and wanted to add the Cog V2 with mutitrainer Freehub to it.

Following these instructions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tav-gxjMhlI it all looks so simple.. it so isn't..

The tool supplied is terrible, barely grips the flats on the axle. I should have stopped at this point, being unable to get the nut off to remove the freehub from the axle. I stupidly reasoned that I couldn't damage much so tried with a bunch of plies, vicegrips etc etc, all looking for a way to get a better purchase on the axel nut with no luck. Defeated, I put the casette back onto the freehub and then tried to pop the QR skewer adapter, of course, I've managed to deform where that sits and it wont go back in. I was pretty convinced I'd ruined a very expensive bike trainer at this point. Thankfully with a bit of gentle persuasion with a rubber mallet, I managed to get the QR skewer adapter back in and everything seems to work.

Has anyone managed to get the CogV2 onto a Kickr Move ? The nut on the axle seems to be *very* soft metal, easily deformed. I was turning it anti-clockwise, towards the back of the trainer which the manuals indicated (and, lefty loosey)

0/10, would not recommend !

Hi,

Just started on Zwift today and have a question about how they show up on Garmin Connect.

Here's what I did:

1. Download the FIT file from Zwift after my ride
2. Use a FIT file tool to change the device to the TACX trainer (I also tried it with an Edge)
3. Uploaded it to Garmin Connect

Everything looks good - it's counting towards my badges and reports, etc.

However, I can't see anything under "Time in Zones" - ie, HR Zone or Power Zone breakdown. Is this normal? If so, any solutions? I rely on HR tracking for a lot of my training and I'd love to continue through Garmin but if it just won't work I guess I can switch over to Strava...

How do you do it? I’d like to change the bottom orange button to shift down so that shifting is all on the right side play controller

Hi I new to all this and want to start riding using Zwift as a way to be active and get in shape, I had thought about getting a treadmill but they bore me and I’m really in to simulation games such as racing and truck driving so I thought Zwift would be right up my ally but I’m not sure what the best route to take is, I don’t own an actual bike and have no interest in riding outside ( I live in Thailand it’s always 30+ here and the roads are hectic)

I have a few options and was hoping someone could give me some advice

1st option, I can get a Renpho smart AI bike S

2nd option I could get a Interactive Turbo Trainer D100 and buy the cheapest bike that would be compatible with it and it would still only be slightly cheaper then the Renpho

Or

3rd option but more expensive I could buy a wahoo KICKR CORE zwift one smart for the same price as the Renpho and then still have to buy a bike to go on it

Am I right in thinking the Renpho is the way to go for my use case

TIA
