So I finally got my Hammer set up and did a ride on TR, Petit to be exact. Easy recovery ride. I was very disappointed with how the Hammer handled the ride. It wouldn’t keep a constant resistance. For example for one segment it was 152 watts and the Hammer would vary between 135 and 175. Also, I had to shift gears on one segment to get enough resistance which I thought the trainer was supposed to do itself. I was hoping the trainer would be more precise and keep the resistance better. Did I have unrealistic expectations? Definitely not impressed with smart trainers if this how they are supposed to work. I had TR set to let my Quarq control the Hammer, and I updated the Hammers firmware before using.
