Hi all, my wife recently got a road bike and I think will start doing trainer rides pretty regularly, whereas I have been using a powertap wheel and switching my tire out every time I ride inside (pretty often at this point). Given these things, we were considering a kickr or one of the various other direct drive models coming onto the market. But I had a question for those who share a trainer with someone else at home, if you have different setups, is it easy to swap out?
Right now, we're both on 8-speed, but if I were to go 11, while she remains on 8, is it simple enough to swap out the freehub, or would be it easier to just have a wheel-on trainer (I have extra wheels for us, so a trainer like the cycleops magnus or any with fairly accurate power would be good too)? Just trying to find the simplest solution, especially for my wife, who will certainly not have the patience to swap out cassettes and what not if it's too complicated haha.
