Do you own a KICKR BIKR SHIFT?

Hello Wahooligans and Sufferlandrians,

Do you own a KICKR BIKE SHIFT? If so, would you like to beta test a new firmware update for us?

Please reply below if that seems like something you would like to do and I will email you the details. It will be a very easy test, You need a KICKR BIKE SHIFT and you just update to a new firmware, do a ERG mode ride and a non ERG mode ride and let us know how it felt. Easy.

I can take you off beta afterwards or if you’d like to join our Wahoo beta to test updates/features/etc… in the future, we can discuss that as well!

More than you,

@Helga I am willing to help, but please feel free to say no to me if I am not who you need as i’m not the most technical person in the world (understatement) or the most accomplished athlete :slightly_smiling_face: but I do love my wahoo workouts so i’m up for it if you need anyone else

I mean WOW…

I think there might have been a mix up. The Firmware I got was version Tadej 7.5… I did ProRides TDU 1 this morning following the update and Nicole and I lapped the field. 7.5w/kg is fun!!! Never even cracked out of my RHR…Whoop thought I was asleep the whole time.
@richie_engineer you might want to consider a Shift, GVA is sending a plane for me immediately following my 1/4 vEverest on the 3rd. I’m headed to Barcelona for a remastered Team Scream on TDF Stage 1. I’m just pulling the entire 19.7k

Well enjoy Team Meh then :rofl::rofl:

Hi @dukhuntr

For those who might be worried about problems with the latest firmware, can you confirm that GVA spotted your editing of HR & Power values, and turned his plane around before he got to you :wink: :folded_hands:

Confirmed…Sorry, I do tend to be a smart-ass, it’s why I love Sufferfest. Everything updated well and test completed without issues.

Thanks for confirming :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:.

Although, I was thinking it would be pretty cool to have a setting that would allow you to generate pro style watts. It would be fun to do a climb on Rouvy at crazy w/kg.

Ok that’s an ebike IRL and it is comically fun.

There’s a hill on my commute that’s about 9 minutes at tempo or 7 minutes if I hit most of it at MAP … but the ebike max boost at MAP is like 4 minutes. It’s so fun.

I have one and sure, why not

Hello @Helga I’ve received an email headed ‘Wahoo 6.88.0 (18552) is ready to test on IOS’ which goes onto say ‘to test the app open TestFlight’, which I did. This takes me to a link to the Wahoo app and I click ‘open’ on there. I am then in the Wahoo app and don’t know what I am supposed to do from this point. I don’t have any other instructions and am not sure what I am testing or what to do next. There’s always one eh?! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: Can you help at all please? Thank you Helga.

Nope nothing to test! It’s just an update to the Wahoo App, but not specific to test. TY!

Thank you @Helga

If it’s not too late, I’d love to test. If it is too late… oh well.

@richie_engineer Climbed a steep hill yesterday on my road bike and a guy on e-bike with a backpack and an unlit cigarette in his mouth passed me at double my speed. Wish I had a video. It was hilarious.
