If you've ever cycled indoors, you don't need me to tell you it can be a little boring without external motivation like a spinning class or a TV show to watch. Since its launch in 2015, Zwift has revolutionized indoor cycling by gamifying the experience so you control an avatar cycling through beautiful virtual worlds. The Zwift Ride smart bike aims to make the Zwift app more accessible than ever, with an easy setup process that will get you riding with minimal fuss.
It’s also more affordable than most smart exercise bikes , and the quiet, aesthetically-pleasing design means it can be used inside, not just the garage. I gave the Zwift Ride a try ahead of its full launch; here’s what you need to know. The Zwift Ride will be available from June 26th and costs $1,299.
99 / £1,199.99 plus $75 / £65 shipping. This is for a package that contains the Zwift bike frame with a Wahoo KICKR CORE turbo trainer, which is the only way to buy the Zwift Ride at the moment.
Later this summer you will be able to just buy the Zwift Frame itself, which you can then connect to other indoor cycling trainers including the Zwift Hub and Wahoo KICKR. To be compatible with the Zwift Frame a turbo will need to work with the Zwift Cog attachment, which joins the frame to the trainer, and Zwift are working with other turbo trainer companies to make compatible products. To use Zwift Ride with Zwift you need a subscription for the app, which is $19.
99 / £17.99 a month or $19.99 / £179.
