Hi, I am using a 2018 Wahoo Kickr with Climb and headwind connected via Bluetooth to ipad. I also use the Zwift companion app via Samsung S20 5G. Recently the Kickr and climb have started being out of sync when reacting to gradient changes on the Zwift course. Example I reach a gradient incline…

I’m having the same out of sync issue. It worked perfect the first time I used it and hasn’t been right since. I pair the climber to my kickr before every ride. It makes no difference. It seems to go up or down randomly and never in sync with the course

I turned off Bluetooth on the ipad and then back on and then reconnected to the kickr and the gradient sync with the climb has worked fine since.

only thing that worked for me was to downgrade the firmware on my Kickr core
