## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you connect your normal garmin h/r to this turbo?**
A: Yes - it works faultlessly

**Q: Do I need to buy an antena and doungle**
A: No, it comes with a USB ANT+ device that allows TACX software to speak with trainer, HR strap and cadence sensor.Don't know if it supported by iPad app since it is sold foremost as a PC solution or just for use with the included headset.This one does not support ANT-FE so it won't work with for example a Garmin computer but the advanced software license is able to upload to Strava.

**Q: can you connect your normal garmin h/r to this turbo?**
A: Yes, I have the garmin chest strap and it connects to the TTs4 software. The trainer also connects to Zwift so the Zwift program can vary the resistance of the trainer.

**Q: What else would i need for zwift? bike and ...?   and i know it's not conventional but it will it fit my 2.0 mtb tyre? tks**
A: Everything you need to connect to a computer comes on the box. You would need an ant+ adaptor for a tablet for the best connection. The vortex has 3 wheel settings takes 26inch, 700c (27.5 on MTB) and 29 inch with all regular tyre widths. Just follow the set up instructions; there very complete and easy to follow.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A great bit of kit, but as with anything follow the guidelines & instructions
  

*by K***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 August 2014*

I read a lot of negative posts about this product but haven't experienced any of the problems listed. The set up guide is very basic but common sense once you work out the pictures. the software is straightforward to install and links easily to the hardware, but you need to be aware of the hardware requirements, but like everything if you have a decent computer it is ok. I had the whole thing up and running in no time. I recommend upgrading the software and adding google earth so that you can ride your own rides. Only two gripes 1, I can't transfer my real life data from Garmin Connect and 2, if you mess up the initial set-up of the handlebar computer there doesn't seem to be any way to reset it back to the factory settings which means I have to do all my rides in km's instead of miles. But all in all a great product with realistic views and resistance and a great way to cycle during the dark evenings

    an excellent product once set up
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 September 2017*

I have had the trainer for three days. It was difficult to set up as was the software on the CD ROM (I had problems loading the software from the disc). Once I had the software loaded, making all the adjustments in order to make the trainer connect with the software took time - I had to reassemble the trainer several times and play around with the bluetooth connection.Once the software was loaded and I paired it with the trainer it appears to work well. I had my first training session this morning and had no problems.

    Great bit of kit.
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 June 2017*

As expected having owned one before a really great, flexible bit of kit - links to the PC if required or can be used as a standalone trainer?
