Beat the winter storms with the best indoor training setup – Zwift drops 15% off the Ride V2 bundle, but you'll have to be quick
Zwift's 'Clocks Back. Ride On.' promotion has dropped discounts on the Ride V2 Bundle and also the Kickr Core 2 smart trainer
The clocks officially turned back across the UK and Europe at the weekend, and North America is set to follow on November 1. After the weekend of storms which battered the UK, for cyclists, it definitely highlighted that indoor season has well and truly arrived.
For most, apart from the hardiest of riders, it means firing up the best indoor cycling apps and dusting down the smart trainer from hibernation. Allowing us to beat the wild weather, maintain our fitness and continue to enjoy riding until the spring ushers back outdoor riding once again.
If you're upgrading or investing in an indoor set-up for the first time, then Zwift has rolled out its 'Clocks Back. Ride On.' promotion. Zwift has dropped its Ride V2 bundle by 15%, which is a saving of $195, £165 or €180 depending on your location.
Shop the Zwift 'Clocks Back. Ride On.' promotion.
The Ride V2 bundle comes with the Wahoo Kickr Core 2, representing the ultimate always-ready option. If you choose to ride on your outdoor bike, then there are also discounts of 20% on the Wahoo Kickr Core 2 itself, our best overall smart indoor trainer.
You can pick the Kickr Core 2 up with $110, £100, or €110 off, again depending on your location.
Below you'll find the region-specific deals. However, the clock is ticking, and this promotion ends at 11.59 pm UK time on Tuesday, October 27.

Zwift Ride V2 Bundle deals
The Zwift say the Ride V2 bundle is the ultimate upgrade for your indoor setup, ending the hassle of constantly mounting your outdoor bike to a trainer. Always ready to ride, it adjusts effortlessly to fit multiple users in seconds.
If you're diving into Watopia this winter, you can't beat this option. The discounted bundle pairs the updated Ride V2 with the Wahoo Kickr Core 2 and Zwift Cog and Click virtual shifting system for seamless, whisper-quiet performance.
Building on the original's strong foundation, the Ride V2 adds key hardware tweaks, including multi-length cranks, expanded saddle adjustability, and a wider-diameter handlebar, which boost versatility, comfort, and value.
Wahoo Kickr Core 2 deals
If you're looking for a more budget-friendly indoor setup and wish to use your own bike, then the Wahoo Kickr Core 2 with Zwift Cog and Click is our recommendation.
The Wahoo Kickr Core 2 hits the sweet spot for indoor training by bringing flagship-tier features down to a far more accessible price point. Its biggest upgrade is built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, which eliminates the frustrating dropouts of Bluetooth/ANT+.
Paired with rock-solid performance, it delivers a realistic road feel, near-silent operation, 1,800-watt resistance, and precise 2% power accuracy, and gives you everything you need for serious training or virtual racing without paying a top-tier premium.
Paired with the Zwift Click remote, the Zwift Cog trades clunky mechanical gears for near-silent virtual shifting. Beyond smooth cadence adjustments, the handlebar-mounted controls double as a full cockpit interface for Zwift: you can steer through menus, trigger PowerUps, launch workouts, and hand out Ride Ons without taking a hand off the bars.
The Zwift Ride and the Cog and Click system are only compatible with Zwift and ROUVY, so if you already subscribe to another platform, then you will need to subscribe to one of those on top.
