You get what you pay for

- Tali 6 December 2022

It's a good product if your objective is to use it for the winter months and ensure your mind is distracted enough to finish a 90 minute ride while not paying the sky. Otherwise, you may be better off with more expensive alternatives. The bearing block of the resistance unit wasn't attached properly so came out flying during the trial ride. You need either luck or patience with calibrating the unit the first time and the Tacx premium software combination with the Flow, is adequate but does not provide a close enough experience to real cycling. In short, it does what I expected for the money paid but does not exceed expectations.

Pros & Cons

Prijs
real-life experience

4 / 5

Great for amateurs!

- Alexandre 5 December 2022

Really like the trainer, the only downside is indeed the need to use a training tire, which was super difficult to install!

Pros & Cons

Fast connection with garmin and 3rd party apps
Light weight and accurate for amateur level
Super portable and easy to mount!
Need training tire
Not recommended to use normal tire.
Really difficult to install the training tire

5 / 5

excellent value for your money

- Paolo 4 February 2022

I decided to get a smart trainer to do some trainings during winter, but did not want to spend too much. i think this TACX flow SMART is an excellent compromise: very easy to configure, you can use it with all the main software for training. in the box you get one coupon for 1 month for tacx premium (very nice app) and one for 1 free month for zwift.

Pros & Cons

cheap compared to other smart trainer
easy to configure
realistic feeling
can simulate only up to 6% gradient
