Hi yes ive got the bkool pro 2, i chose it for the cost, got a great deal here in the uk, its a weight bearing trainer, more geared for sitting down, i use trainer road and zwift both connect ok, software is ok although when on a hill you know about it, i find quiet as well, another reason i bought a wheel on trainer is ive 2 bikes, 1. 11 speed and one 10 speed, to sum up i find the trainer is very good and i use it 4 times a week,

Are intrigued by the the bkool because of price or something else?

You can’t go wrong with the Wahoo Kickr Snap (and FulGaz.com). Both rock solid and excellent. Not tried Bkool hardware but did subscribe for a year. Only used the software a few times as (for me) it was buggy and not very user friendly.

Kind of a bit of both reasons.
The older version is currently $200 less then the Snap and intrigued as well by something different.

I stopped using their App-I'm not a techie but the graphics totally sucked-only good thing about it was rides that were on my Garmin auto loaded in and I could ride the routes indoors-great for IM training...other Apps do the same thing.

For Zwift it works great, only issue is its a sit on the seat platform, need weight on the rear wheel, so if that matters look elsewhere...

I scoped mine a BKool Pro for $300 used, from I guy in my club who used it a few times and his wife wanted a Peloton instead.

About the time this thread started Bkool announced the 'Bkool Smart Air'. Now several year on and the unit appears to be in stock for purchase on Wiggle but I'm still not sure I have seen a real picture of a working unit. The photos on the Bkool website appear to be CGI/computer renditions, no one seems to have reviewed the unit and the only spy shots I have seen are of a non-working unit from interbike a few years back. What is going on?

If the unit work the design looks very intriguing and the provided numbers are promising. I would have expected a bigger launch though if everything added up.

There's a few unboxing videos up on YouTube. And a couple of videos of people riding it. As for 'reviews', zero. I've been banging on their door since talking to them about it at Eurobike 2018...... It looks revolutionary. It needs to be more than looks.

I wouldn't touch one until we've seen the numbers it produces and someone reports on the ride feel / experience.

ive tried to contact them as their bike is a solution for my gym at work. their email response asking for details was super vague. it turned me off to their product and company very quickly.
