I am having problems with the resistance in erg mode with my zwift bike ride. Through the companion app no change of resistance in erg mode and connected to the bluetooth of my apple tv erg mode works perfectly. So in my opinion something is going wrong in the app. Anyone who can help me solve this.
Hi @Rudi_Vullings
A little more context would be useful.
- Does this mean ERG mode does not work if you pair your trainer using the Zwift Companion app?
- But f you pair your trainer / Ride controllers “natively” to the Apple TV - then ERG mode works? Are you using the same workout to compare?
- Is this a stock workout in one of the Zwift training plans, or are you using a custom workout created elsewhere?
Exactly as you quoted it. These are custom workouts from Xert and Join. Connected via bluetooth to the AppleTV no problems via the companion app no change in resistance during a workout
@Rudi_Vullings
One last question: are you going from a freeride (SIM mode) to an ERG mode workout?
Ordinarily you do not need to shift gears in ERG mode as it should increase resistance as you spin the pedals faster. But for shiggles - would you try shifting up a few times to manually get more resistance sooner?
Hello Shuji.
I started directly from the home screen in to my custom workout so no freeride sim mode before. For the other thing back to manually shifting I will come back to you next week because there is nice wheather here this weekend so I will ride outside. I think I will also perform a new calibration spindown in de wahoo app and when it is possible through Zwift. Thx for your great support and have a nice weekend.
Kind regards
Rudi
Hello Shuji
Great news. There was an update for my kickr core and after performing a spindown the workouts working well again through the compagnion app. No problems any more. So this issue is solved.
Kind regards
