Hardwire your Wahoo KICKR with KICKR Direct Connect

  • Ron 

If you are regularly doing events and races on Zwift and other platforms with a Wahoo KICKR, you should consider the KICKR Direct Connect for the best virtual training and e-sports experience.

What is KICKR DIRECT CONNECT?

KICKR Direct Connect is a hard-wired connection that delivers the best virtual training and E-Sports experience by reliably transferring your workout data. Now when riding in urban areas or crowded signal environments, your virtual rides and online races go uninterrupted, so you’re never off the back due to a dropped signal.

Who is the DIRECT CONNECT for?

DIRECT CONNECT is for e sports + racing enthusiasts, or users who experience wireless dropouts during normal use because of a high level of devices, like an apartment complex or gym.

It would seem that the KICKR Direct Connect is only compatible with Wahoo KICKR models in the v5 line.

The interface acts as a go-between between the trainer and your PC, connecting via an ethernet cable either into a router or directly into a laptop or PC.
