    I bought a Kickr Core a few weeks back after a lot of deliberation struggling a bit with the price of it. But I have to say it has surpassed my expectations. I have been out on it a lot more than I would ever have been out on the wheel-on (which I didn't ever really enjoy)
    Using the app also (I'm trying out Sufferfest for the first time) makes me push myself more also rather than just drifting off into a comfortable pace.

    It's just a pity I missed out on the years subscription to the Sufferfest. That would have really taken a bit of the sting out of the purchase price.

    Email Wahoo. They've great service and can confirm.

    I've tried all of the usual turbo apps. Sufferfest is the best for me personally. Seems more immersive and the plans with strength and yoga add a good mix.

    What's Wahoo like for spares/ service?

    My Cyclops/ Saris Hammer hasn't really let me down, but the the belt snapped (which can happen to any of them). Parts are not readily available, and their "EU" supplier is in the UK. Replacement on the way, but was a bit more faff than I'd like to get the official one (it was easier to get a generic one from the US on Amazon, only that turned out to be buy cheap buy twice). Kind of has me leaning towards EU manufactuers if/ when the time comes, so Tacx (albeit Garmin owned) or Elite when replacement time comes!
