With Tacx Alpine, take advantage of real-time virtual steering in the Zwift app to experience realistic riding, draft benefits and more.

THE ZWIFT EXPERIENCE

With preinstalled Zwift Cog and Click, this trainer is ready to ride, train and race. Zwift Cog replaces your cassette and is compatible with almost any 8–13 speed bike. Zwift Click unlocks 24 silent and instant virtual gears and lets you steer, navigate menus, give ride-ons and more from your handlebars¹. Zwift Cog will still support ERG mode workouts via compatible devices, including your Edge® cycling computer.

EASY SETUP AND STORAGE

Thanks to your trainer’s built-in handle and compact, foldable legs, it conveniently transports and stores with ease. With Zwift Cog preinstalled, your trainer is ready to ride on Zwift after it’s been set up in the Tacx Training™ app.
