Description
The Elite Direto XR is an interactive indoor trainer that helps you get the most out of your training. With the newest technologies and features, such as an integrated power meter and extensive pedal stroke analysis, Elite takes indoor training to a whole new level.
Data collection
The built-in power meter is very accurate, it has a deviation of just 1.5%. Having an integrated power meter that directly measures your power output is a unique feature among turbo trainers. Elite uses the OTS technology for this - Optical Torque Sensor. It is an advanced technology which uses light beams to calculate your power output.
Of course, your speed and cadence data are also recorded. These can be analysed afterwards with your your favourite software. The power output is measured per pedal stroke, allowing you to optimise your set-up and your own power transfer.
Interactive training
Indoor training has become a lot more interesting over the past few years thanks to software like Zwift. The Elite turbo trainers are compatible with My E-Training, Zwift, TrainerRoad, Kinomap, Rouvy, The Sufferfest, RGT, FULGAZ, Bikevo and Bkool. Connect the Direto XR via Bluetooth or ANT+ with your smartphone, tablet or PC. The high power output of the Elite Direto XR (1100 Watts at 20 km/h, 2300 Watts at 40 km/h) allows you to virtually cycle up mountain roads with inclines up to 24%. With its 5.1 kg flywheel and 1.5% accuracy, the Elite Direto XR provides the ideal training for your next race.
Quiet like a mouse!
Like its predecessors, the Elite Direto XR is very quiet. The only sound you'll hear is from the chain. You'll love it, and so will your housemates.

Mount the bike, with the appropriate adapters if necessary, and you're ready to start training!
