The Elite Direto XR is the worthy successor to the Elite Direto X. The new Italian Elite Direto XR bike trainer offers the best value for money. Compared to its predecessor, it has significantly improved in many ways. The trainer's legs are already secured, allowing you to use it right out of the box. The trainer has become more powerful, capable of delivering up to 2300 watts at 40 km/h. Additionally, it can now simulate a climbing gradient of up to 24%, thanks to a slightly heavier flywheel. This also ensures an even more realistic experience. Like its predecessor, the trainer features both Ant+ and Bluetooth connectivity, enabling you to use it with almost all training apps. This trainer includes a voucher for one month of free Zwift and a 12-month voucher for My E-Training. The My E-Training app is free for 12 months, and Zwift offers one month free. The trainer has a pedal analysis option for very precise training with high power for all types of power and cadence training. The folding legs are very stable, and the trainer operates extremely quietly. The internal power meter is equipped with an accuracy of 1.5%. The maximum power output is 2300 watts at 40 km/h. The trainer automatically adjusts to compatibility: it is compatible with disc brakes and long cage rear axles and can be used with 130-135 x 5 mm quick releases as well as 142 x 12 mm thru-axles. It is also compatible with Ant+ and Bluetooth sensors and can be used with Campagnolo bodies from Elite.
