Tacx Flux Direct Drive Smart Trainer – T2900

The Tacx Flux Smart T2900 cycletrainer features a compact and realistic direct drive – interactive and maintenance-free. The swift response of the Smart electronics and the 7 kg flywheel transmit the slightest fluctuations in resistance directly and accurately to your legs. Of all the Tacx trainers, the Flux has the heaviest actual flywheel with an effect of 25 kg. The greater the flywheel effect, the more realistic the cycling experience.

Flux Smart Electromagnetic brake

The Flux Smart cycletrainer works with an electromagnetic brake with the advantages of being silent and maintenance-free at the same time. Thanks to the electromagnetic brake a resistance can be set that you also experience on the road or in a climb. The resistance unit provides a particular cycling experience by increasing or reducing the resistance on the rear wheel.

When cycling in a virtual terrain or in a film you can get outside the range for which the brake is intended. To allow cyclists with a motor brake and those with an electric brake to ride races against each other in multiplayer mode*, Tacx has developed the virtual speed. This concept translates the energy supplied into a certain speed, which can guarantee a fair contest. If this speed differs from the speed at which the rear wheel is running, the virtual speed will be shown on the screen in red.

Software and apps for Flux Smart

The Tacx Flux Smart trainer can be connected to your smartphone, tablet or computer with ANT+ or Bluetooth® Smart in order to use Tacx software and apps or that of others. With the possibility to use the trainer also stand-alone you are completely free in choosing your indoor cycling workout.

With the Tacx software and apps you may regulate your training ride by heart rate, gradient and power, or you may pick a famous route or race. Besides that, you may compete with other riders online. The training options vary by application:

Tacx Training App for smartphones

The Tacx Training App allows you to train freely based on slope, power or heart rate. The Analyser presents the performance data on your smartphone’s display. The saved data can be analysed afterwards via the Tacx Cloud and with export you send the file with your results to the given email-address. This file can be uploaded in trainings software like Strava and Trainingpeaks.
