Yeah it's worth it the thing is bullet proof, I've had the original tacx neo since 2017 no issues still!

My buddy with the cheaper wahoo kicker has gone through 10 trainers they just break!

Just bought one second hand off eBay with no instruction booklet and this video has been invaluable, thanks so much!🙏🏻

Good review of the Tacx! Overall, the Tacx is impressive with size and functions. The only downside observed was mounting the bike to the trainer. What impressed me most was the separate power calibrations. Never thought of it much before hip replacement. The ability of the trainer to flex should take stress off the frame. I'd rather be out for a ride chasing cars and biting tires.
It has been smoking hot here for a few days with triple digit temperatures up to 114*. I did make it out for a couple sunset and night rides. Watching the supermoon rise with an orange tint while riding was what I was looking forward to. Thanks for all your videos!

I would also recommend to use a Brake Spacer on your Disc Brakes, so you don't accidentally press them on the trainer.

Thanks for the review - the install process was exactly what I was after. These are so complicated to get going, think I'll stick with my spin bike for now

Great video with all the details I wanted to clear. Thank you.

At the moment, Garmin has them on sale for $1120, at least in the USA (MSRP is $1400). The online place I typically use has them for $1120 and you get a $34 store credit on top of that.

Brilliant in-depth review. Probably need to upgrade my Elite Drivo 2 soon and would love this!! 😍. However hard to justify the price over the Kickr Core or the new Zwift trainer, both being 50% less and just as capable. (Like you hinted at the end)👍. Although surely it's due for a price drop or upgrade as it's been that price for years 🤔

Thank you for this in depth review. It really helped me when I was assembling my Neo 2T. Turns out mine did not come with the Drive Side 12 for through axle and now I'm waiting for an answer from Garmin on how to solve this.

Great review that I can understand easiest, for me i think. Thank you!

Love your comment in the end. So true :-)

Thank you for sharing the review. Just a quick one, would the 2.7mm spacer damage the frame since most road bike frames are standardised at 142mm?

I had Neo 2, and yes, it slipped sometimes, but I did not care. Not it lost resistance without any overheating. What I do care is quality. Don’t trust Tacx anymore. Btw had problems with putting Orbea Orca on it- had to buy additional adapter for dual thread which was only available in Belgium
