After that, I took it from Vegas to Houston to Paris via commercial airliner (checked luggage). Then, I dragged it across the Vegas CES show floor to my hotel (no easy feat for those familiar with Vegas). It first flew from Taipei to Las Vegas via UPS. Mine held up pretty well given the travelling it did. Thus, if you buy your KICKR at a local bike shop, you’ll likely find it looking more like this:įrom there you’ll crack open the outer shell and find the protective cardboard inside. Inside the heavy-duty cardboard box, you’ll find the KICKR’s inner box. If you buy your KICKR via the interwebs, it’ll likely come in this box. Here’s the outer shipping box that the KICKR comes in. Unboxing:įirst, let’s get this thing unboxed. Also, because the technology world constantly changes, I try and go back and update these reviews as new features and functionality are added – or if bugs are fixed. But, if I’ve missed something or if you spot something that doesn’t quite jive – just let me know and I’ll be happy to get it all sorted out. I write these reviews because I’m inherently a curious person with a technology background (my day job), and thus I try and be as complete as I can. Lastly, at the end of the day keep in mind I’m just like any other regular triathlete out there. Sorta like hiking in wilderness trails – leave only footprints. Because I want to be transparent about my reviews, once my evaluation period with the Wahoo KICKR has elapsed, I send it back to them in the Atlanta.
In doing so, I’ve got a pretty good grasp on how the unit works, as well as all the details inside and out.
Heck, I even took parts of it apart (with wire cutters!). Every aspect of this trainer I’ve poked at or dove into. But, how does it live up to the promises and fanfare? Well, I’ve spent the last two months using it week in and week out. The Wahoo KICKR is probably the most anticipated trainer to hit the market in quite a while, if not one of the most anticipated sports technology products for endurance athletes to hit the market. Heads up! This is an older review – jump to the in-depth review of the latest/current Wahoo KICKR here!
