Ho all, I’m trying for the Tron halo upgrade, I have the Tron and am in the process of upgrading a zwift road bike and a zwift tt bike. My question to you guys is, do I have to upgrade the mountain bike or can I use the gravel bike as the third one?
In my case the mountain bike was actually the fastest of my three Zwift bikes to upgrade, although it didn’t feel like it at the time (mainly because of all the road bikes passing me)
800k to upgrade the road bikes, even at 40kph (I’m not that fast), that’s 20 hours of bike time
TT bikes are a straight up 20 hours
Mountain Bike is 7,500 meters of climbing. That is 7.3 times up the Alpe du Zwift. Even at 2 hours per climb, that’s under 15 hours of riding, and you can switch to the road bike for the descent to get legit free kilometers. More of a bonus if you don’t already have the Masochist badge
This is actually the most fun way, otherwise you end up having to do lots of distance. Not so enjoyable.
For the Project 74 I did the Tarmac SL8 the slow way by climbing (Ventop - around 43km per day) and then the Aethos and MTB both which seemed easier. I’m using the Project 74 and doing just climbing to upgrade it. Slow going but fun.
