When will the Zwift click be available in Australia. I need virtual gearing for my kickr core because I use a mountain bike on the trainer and the gearing in Zwift is no good for mountain bikes.
I don’t know anything about the prospects for sales in Australia (probably coming via Wahoo eventually) however you can use the QZ app (qzfitness.com) to get virtual shifting on your phone if you want a solution now. @Roberto_Viola is the developer and can answer any questions you have.
let me know if you have any question! virtual shifting is already available with QZ for all the bikes!
HI @Matt_Shirlaw welcome to Zwift forums.
We’re working on it with Wahoo!
Will it be available as a stand alone purchase? I (and thousands of other people) already have a kickr core.
Hi @Matt_Shirlaw. This is Juan a Zwift colleague. This is a great question. Many of our Zwifters already have their Wahoo Kickr Core. I can’t confirm what improvements are currently being developed in this regard, but Zwift continually evaluates and develops solutions to improve your experience. Please stay tuned to our official channels like Zwift.com and Zwift Shop for new exciting releases.
I arranged to get a set of Zwift Plays when they came out last year in Aus through a friend in the US…
My girlfriend uses a kickr 6 (I have kickr 5 ). When virtual shifting came out for the 6 the other day I let her try my Zwift Plays and within 10 mins of finishing she had setup a US shipping address from a site that will apparently ship it to her from there…
Far from ideal I know, but is possible!
Will the Click and play controllers also be available separate to buy from Wahoo?
Look a few comments above - Zwift is arranging selling the Play and Cog through Wahoo to increase locations worldwide where you can purchase the items.
So, is the only way to get Zwift Hub and Click in Australia, buy a whole new Wahoo KICKR CORE, even if you already own one? That seems quite an expensive option. Why can’t we just purchase the Cog and Click separately?
It is now April 24 and zwift click nor the zwift controller is available in Australia. Please provide a date
Are they though?
Any Updtae @Juan_Lopez10 on wen Zwift play ships in Australia . Try to GIVE MONEY TO zwift today , NOPE you didnt want it Strange business model, to not add shipping to Australia
So if you are desperate for the Zwift Click from Australia, it will cost you around $115 depending on exchange rate .
- Set up a mail forwarding account. I use MyUS.com
- Using a VPN pointing to USA, go to Zwift web shop and select the Click for $39 usd.
- Enter your mail forwarding address for shipping
- at this point you will have spent around $70 aud on the click and postage to Florida or wherever your forwarder is based. (This includes 6% US state tax)
- Once Zwift Click arrives at your mail forwarder, you will then be able to ship it on to Australia.
- this will cost around $45 aud including Aussie GST (which is charged on item value and the cost of the shipping )
Or you can wait and maybe one day it will be available down here for perhaps $99 or something … plus postage
Of course doing it that way makes it practically impossible to return if there are any issues.
Setting up distribution to Australia isn’t particularly difficult. I think zwift is just scared of our consumer protection laws.
Came here to put my vote forward for the play controllers and the click to be distributed in Australia.
Not sure why it’s taking so long to be available in Australia but it could well have saved them the mass exodus of people I know leaving the platform with the price hike. At least give us a timeframe/ date for it’s release
Hi Roberto, I have purchased and downloaded the qzfitness app, and I can get it to pair with all the devices and re-present them to zwift (that worked pretty well) … but it does not present anything for the ‘controller’ box unlike the tutorial I saw online i was folliwn
I have an iphone 12, polar h10 strap, kickr core and kickr climb on an ipad pro (older gen)… haven’t tried it on a PC yet, but even though the graphics are average on the ipad, the convenience factor with the ipad is massively higher so I’d prefer not to.
send me an email to roberto.viola83 at gmail.com with the screenshot and I will help you. Thanks
Hi, I’m another Core owner wondering if/when we might be able to buy the Click here in Australia. I’m sure there are lots of us who would be interested in getting one.
PS: I know the web page says the topic has been solved, but at the time of writing (July 9 2024) I can’t order one to be delivered here without jumping through hoops - ie using a VPN and setting up a mail forwarding address. Zwift is a brilliant product and the result of some very smart minds - there must be some obstacle involved in making accessories available over here, but I’m sure you can sort it out.
Cheers,
Mark.
