Kickr 16 thur axel 12x148

Good day,

I hope someone can help me, I bought a new bicycle with thru axles (12x148). This does not fit on my kickr 16. Is there a conversion kit for these axles? How vcan i solve this issue.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Welcome to the forums @Tjarco I hate to be the bearer of bad news but as far as I know, your bike is not compatible with the 2016 Kickr. You’d need either a 2017 model or newer, or a different bike.

One solution might be to keep your old compatible bike or get a cheap used compatible bike to keep set up on your trainer (if you have the room to do so). That’s what I do. Having the trainer always set up with a bike and my main bike not on the trainer makes it much easier to do an indoor workout or go for an outdoor ride as the opportunities arise.

Same here. Nothing cheap though, I just happen to pile up enough bikes :wink:

Depending on the Season I ride the Gravel Bike outside and the Tri Bike on the trainer or vice versa.

Thanks guys fore your advice.
