Bkool smartpro black - no connect zwift

@Baron_Zuzu are you looking for the links to bkool sim v3.53? If so I’ve updated them in this thread:

@Sandy_Thomson Nope, I have the old Bkool software (and new). I am after the firmware to enable ANT+ FEC, so I can manually update my trainer

Hi baron, the flash file does not work bkool had to remote contact my PC to flash the bkool pro! They Down loaded a big file and ran it. It works now fec enabled! on zwift!! Been messing with this for months.

All the download links are dead for the bkool sim v3.53. Would anyone please share a link to the file - Windows or Mac…

Try these, they should be good for 30 days:

Awesome - thanks for the updated links. I think the latest version (November) is 5.26, in case anyone else is trying. I changed the version.dat file to 5.26 and it worked a dream.

Hello: I have done all the steps above: using 5.26 as version works perfect. Thank you!! But when i go to settings - pair my device - my bkool simulator is no found, … try using both bluetooth and Ant+ , but have not been able to get my device to be found… any solutions ?

Thank you!!!

Hi, can i do the same upgrade on bkool Classic? Thanks a lot

Hi Sandy! can you please update the links? they are dead again
For Mac specifically

No problem @Javier_Salinas1, here they are:

It looks like the version number you need to change is up to 5.35. Tag me in 30 days once this one expires if anyone still needs it…

Does anyone know how to beat the update required?

Hi @Ben_Turnbull, what version number did you use? 5.35?

If that doesn’t work you might just need to increase it and try again until it works. I can’t find any release notes for the Bkool software so I’m not sure what number it is up to now. Let us know if you find one that works.

I’ve uploaded the files again - details here:

And for MacOS the latest version is now 5.33 (not 5.14).
This worked for me.
You can see the new version number on apple apps store.

Hi, i am using also MacOS, and can not fix it. Bkool app detects ANT+ from Bkool device, but Zwift not…
dont know what else can i do now
if anyone can support, please
thanks
