I’ve ridden the Kickr Core a heck of a lot in 2024, thanks to a particularly wet summer, but I’m still absolutely loving it. It’s inexpensive – especially so right now, with this Cyber Monday deal – quiet, unobtrusive, accurate and reliable. It also provides a ride feel that’s so convincing I honestly don’t miss the slightly heavier flywheel of its pricier, big brother, the Kickr. Okay, it doesn’t carry momentum quite so well, but that's really not a biggie.

In fact, the lighter Kickr Core is more portable, making it easier to tidy out of sight, which is a bonus in a shared household. The substantial difference between the two is price, with the Kickr typically more than twice as expensive as the Kickr Core. It's also widely compatible, so fitting your bike shouldn't be a problem.

Wahoo's Kickr Core is a serious contender in the indoor cycling space. Accurate, lightweight, and authentic, it is capable of providing all the data Zwift or Rouvy could ever need. The Kickr Core is not to be slept on this Black Friday.

Tech Editor

Tech Editor, Andy Carr came to cycling journalism after ten years in the cycle trade, writing blogs and content whilst designing award winning bikes, for his own custom bike brand.

A life long cycling fan and rider, he left the City life in 2015, moving away to the Alps, where he worked as a ride guide, running pro-camps, and eventually started designing and building custom bikes.

Over a decade, that escape grew into a business, and Andy’s bike designs became well known in the industry.

He has always used his platform to champion higher standards in fit, design, and fabrication and his own products won awards and five star reviews in most of the major magazines.

Having run a bike shop, workshop, and award winning paint shop, producing custom bikes in metal and composite for customers all over the world, Andy has real life experience of the processes and work that go into producing great bikes and components; from desk work like FEA and CFD to physically testing products in wind tunnels, opening moulds for composite work, and getting products out of his head and into stores - alongside some of the insider processes few get to see.
