Zwift is celebrating its 11th anniversary this fall, marking the occasion with the Zwift 'Big Birthday Weekend'. Zwift is dropping discounts on some of the best indoor trainers, as well as the Zwift Ride indoor smart bike.

Cycling Weekly is joining the celebrations by offering an exclusive 15% discount to our readers on the just-released Wahoo Kickr Core 2 – now discounted to just $467.49, a $82.50 saving on the RRP of $549.99.

The all-new Kickr Core 2 is a significant step up from the original Wahoo Kickr Core, which we already rated as the best value direct-drive trainer. Kickr Core 2 now includes the Zwift Cog and Click system. The Zwift Cog is a pre-installed cog specifically designed to replace a cassette, making set-up effortless, and is compatible with almost any 8-13-speed bike. Zwift Click is a handlebar-mounted virtual shifting system, and it makes in-game navigation a breeze.

In our review, we deemed the original Kickr Core the best value direct-drive trainer, and the recently released Core 2 is now even better, benefiting from the super convenient Zwift Cog and Click, which makes indoor riding a hassle-free experience. Virtual shifting, handlebar-mounted controls and smart resistance that perfectly mimics every climb and descent make the Kickr Core 2 a brilliant smart trainer purchase. Our exclusive 15% Zwift 'Big Birthday Weekend' discount now makes it even better.

Get the Kickr Core 2 with 15% off at Zwift.

The Zwift Ride scored an impressive 4.5 out of 5-star rating in our review, and our trusted tester, Simon Fellows, thought it was a simple concept executed brilliantly. Undemanding to use and easy to live with, it offered the finest, most comprehensive Zwift experience on the market. This 'Big Birthday Weekend' deal includes a huge $300 off, the updated Zwift Ride and the all-new Kickr Core 2 with Cog and Click.
