ANT vs. Bluetooth or combination
Quote | Reply
Background: I've got a quarq that only does ANT+ and a Kickr that does ANT+ and BT. I primarily use trainerroad in erg mode. Currently, I send PM data to my Mac via ANT (only choice) and then computer data to Kickr via BT.

Would it be better in anyway to use ANT for both? The reason I ask is I get 30sec to 1min screen freezes on Trainerroad and I wonder if it is related. Does it take up too much computing power to use ANT and BT at the same time? When I get these screen freezes, the computer is clearly controlling the Kickr correctly as I will feel resistance changes if I pass through one on my workout. It strikes me as a memory problem as once the screen unfreezes, it's like it does a 'fast forward' through all the time it was frozen for and then correctly catches up to where I am in the workout.

Thoughts???
