On top for Zwift

- Mael, 4 September, 2021

Set up to use Zwift. Perfect! It recognizes the equipment straight away, and simulates the gradient in real time.

Top trainer at a (coat) top price

- Kenneth, 27 August, 2021

Excellent direct drive trainer! After it was delivered at home, just take it out of the box, put bike on the trainer (don't forget to mount the cassette first, you do need the right tools for this). And Zwift away, if you register the machine on Elite's site you get a code for Zwift (and others like Sufferfest) by email and can Zwift for free for 1 month. It is quiet, low weight and with a convenient handle. With the folding legs, it also takes up very little space. It also comes with a handy front wheel rest. In short, a top trainer for a (coat) top price

Pros & Cons

Compact
Low weight
Plug and play
Quiet
No cassette included

Top for the price

- Sebastien, 10 April, 2021

Great buy. For the price I can't think of anything better.... Then you'll have to go up to 750 and more to get more accurate power sensors. But the sensor is already enough to have fun with Zwift and other software!

A purchase I don't regret at this price.

- Arnaud, 7 April, 2021

I owned a 2016 Élite turbo muin which was much heavier, noisier and bulkier than the Suito. The Suito's interactivity is really interesting. Indeed, resistance varies according to slope percentages or in the different exercises, and in a precise way.

Relatively light for this type of home trainer

- Laurent, 20 February, 2021

A few noises on start-up, but I'm told this is normal according to suito support. The ht is very stable and relatively quiet, but not completely silent. Otherwise, it works very well with rouvy. However, I can't comment on reliability, as some previous series have had problems. have had problems. I contacted elite support by e-mail with a question and they never replied.

Compact, simple, robust

- Luca, 18 February, 2021

Purchased after trying the Shift 2 months: compared to the latter, the Suito is much more compact, manageable, and externally pleasing! Perhaps the pedaling is "less rounded" as some purists claim, but the advantage of having active resistance (simulating climbs) is really valuable. On "bumpy" trails with lots of ups and downs, you will feel like you are pedaling "live," forced to use the gearbox as in reality! Moreover, while it requires a power outlet to operate (inconvenient for some locations), it has on the other hand the advantage that the internal ANT+ and Bluetooth sensors work all the time, without having to change a battery every few hours of operation. The packaging is also significantly smaller than the Shift (about 1/3, being also very thin, about 15 cm). This is not insignificant considering that such a product spends about 8 months packed, being used only in the winter "bad season"!

compact
elegant

Reasonable priced smart trainer

- James, 18 February, 2021

This is a reasonable priced smart trainer, easily set up and can be operational within minutes of taking out of box. Combined with any of the popular cycling apps at present it works and set sup quickly. Operates quietly. The only downside is that I find it not the most stable of smart trainers, there is some flex when cycling particularly when increasing the tempo or power. Overall its an excellent product.

Pros & Cons

Cost
Easy to connect to cycling apps
Quite
Simple set up
Front wheel rest included is just reasonable
No Cassette
Not the most stable when under high cadence/power

I bought one of these to relieve the boredom of winter and get a fit again, thanks to this little unit there’s a chance I’ll emerge stronger from this lockdown, so I thank it! I am definitely an amateur and this is my first trainer but it’s super easy to setup, solid and connects quickly to Zwift. Job jobbed!

Reasonable Smart Trainer for the price.

- Richard, 12 January, 2020

You can go wrong with the price. The trainer was easy to set up but you have to be careful when changing cassettes as the cassette freehub nut can be loose. Done quite a few sessions and the trainer does get noisy. The reason I bought this was an upgrade to my Elite muin that did not have the resistance, it's not so much as an upgrade though, if the muin had resistance I would still use the muin, as it seems tougher and less noisy, but the muin is not portable.. That saying the Suito is a reasonable bit of kit and so far these are minor complaints. If your looking for a portable smart trainer, this is a reasonable buy.

Good Smart Trainer

- Richard, 3 January, 2020

Bought this Elite Smart trainer on impulse as an upgrade to my Elite Muir which although very good did not have the resistance. Setting up was a bit of an issue for me as my bike had a 10 spd cassette. So remove the supplied 11spd and replace with the 10. Firstly I found the cassette freewheel nut had disappeared, later to be found in the removal tool as the nut was loose. Then the derailleur needed to be adjusted as the 10 spd cassette did not sit properly even with the supplied cassette washers. Eventually I gave up and re-installed the 11 spd cassette and used my other bike which luckily happens to be 11spd. After that the experience has been good, the resistance, (the original reason why I bought the Suito,) is very good and you can really feel those climbs! Apart from the set up, once you get everything working it's a good smart trainer especially for the price.

Pros & Cons

- Emmet, 4 December, 2019

My first experience with a smart trainer and it could not have been easier as the Suito is a genuine plug and play unit. Having power, cadence and speed all via the Suito is great and no extra sensors required only Heart Rate. So far this trainer plays very well with Zwift and Rouvy.
