The inRide App is programmable, so you can set-up power and HR zones, as well as create your own workouts and modify the provided existing plans. The App is comprehensive and the standard power data you are familiar with is here: current, average, max, Tss, nPower, iFactor, mean maximal and time-in-power zones. You get the usual functions as well: speed, cadence, distance, HR (with strap), calories burned, and many other metrics. The system is clean and simple. Mount the pod on you fluid unit, mount the bike, sync to the App and ride. Calibration of variables such as tire psi and roller tension are automatic.

The Road Machine itself is a great fluid trainer. The unit is inherently stable and it is simple and easy to set-up and remove your bike. The provided axle cones integrate with virtually all frames using the provided steel skewer. Kinetic's axle system has always been modular, and now the company offers the Traxle thru-axle adapters to ensure the flexibility you need. The heart of the Road Machine is the fluid resistance unit. This design delivers the most progressive resistance of any trainer, with an exceptional power curve that has been engineered to closely match the outdoor power curve for a very realistic feel when powering up or dropping down. The 6.25lb flywheel is perfectly balanced and the 80 cooling fins carefully manage the fluid and drum operating temperatures. All materials are exceptionally precise, built for durability, and usability. The magnetically coupled drive shaft ensures leak free performance and the thermodynamically neutral silicone lives in a sealed chamber. The overall effect is a high quality, unmatched training unit that instills confidence and closely matches the resistance of the road.

Many cyclists have that already train with power have invested considerably in products that reside on their primary bikes. We'd bet that 90% of those riders have multiple bikes and uses a fluid trainer. Off-season training time isn't always wet or freezing. Ideally a cyclist will ride with a full set-up every time they head out the door. A second bike, or trainer bike, will often be set-up for days when riding outside isn't feasible. Kinetic Smart gives you the opportunity to jump right on the trainer, use and collect your data, and transfer it to almost any training program. No need to remove your crank or pedals or rear wheel and swap over. No need to fully clean your bike every time you ride so that you can mount it on the trainer. Others, due to weather and limited daylight will have their bike and trainer set-up all winter.

Now any rider can make indoor training more interactive and use power/training data to better utilize trainer time at a fraction of the cost of a component driven measurement system. You can decide what you want and need, and if you desire more interaction and capability, you can visit Kinetic.fit and select options that suit your needs. Having access to training plans, the ability to build and modify them, and have fun with the process makes it all the more worthwhile. Don't disengage and jump on the trainer for 30 minutes. Use the Kinetic Road Machine Smart 2 T-2710, the App and Kinetic.fit to truly engage with your training and learn to maximize and enjoy indoor training time.
