Why We Like The Wahoo KICKR Climb
The KICKR Climb mimics the feeling of tilt on a climbing grade for efficient indoor training sessions. The KICKR Climb pairs with Wahoo's KICKR and KICKR Snap trainers to recreate a climbing experience that automatically matches our bike's tilt to the virtual grade being simulated by the trainer in conjunction with our training program.

Very nice addition to a Kickr Setup
I was a bit hesitant on adding this to my new Kickr Move setup, being a bigger guy etc but wanting to go for max realism on my training. Hills / inclines always get me so being able to simulate more ultimately convinced me to go for the purchase. It's quiet and very smooth (so the kids and wife say). I also added the extra warranty coverage for peace of mind and do not regret either product. I am loving the combination with the Kickr Move that I added the Headwind and even went for the newly updated model of the Kickr Desk V2. LOVE the setup up. And no, I am not a hardcore rider, I am an overweight middle aged guy who's wanting to perform better for this seasons events and this makes it simulate things so nicely. Any regrets, nope, I'd get it again. This thing is built like a tank.

Something changed
Is different, less sensitive than before. I bought the latest to replace a broken 6 year old one. It’s paired with the latest KICKR since my previous, 6 year old one too, expired. Latest firmware applied to both and seems to incline less often while in automatic mode.

I use it with my
I use it with my Wahoo Kickr Move trainer. When riding courses on Zwift, the unit automatically adjusts the grade simulation by going up or down. It just feels real. I love it.

First one did not work….
The first one arrived and did not work. All errors experienced and troubleshooting performed were listed in my complaint. It seemed wahoo failed to read my complaint and asked questions that were answered in the complaint. This only delayed things. As issues had to be readdressed due to the lack of reading the original complaint. Very aggravating .

Excellent addition to a trainer
Use this with a KICKR Move. Love the change in incline. Results in different muscle groups engaging on climbs/descents. Allows for longer rides with less arm fatigue from having to use the same shoulder/arm position.

Not necessary but makes riding more fun
This was not an inexpensive purchase so I was really hoping it was worth it. It was! I’m super please with my first smart trainer and the climb simulator makes training even more fun.

I own 2 Kickers and
I own 2 Kickers and 2 Climbs. I keep one at my house and one at my mountain home. I can’t really justify the additional cost for the Kicker Move, but none the less I use both almost every other day with Fulgaz and I totally enjoy both. Definitely worth the money

A great option but needs better repairability
It’s an easy setup and responds seamlessly to hill climbs and descents A great addition for the Wahoo smart trainer I only wish that it was more repairable Mine broke after 3 years and I basically had to buy a new one, which I did I worked with the service group who made the decision that I should buy a new one Seemed like a gear assembly and or sensor broke…..it would only raise halfway and would bottom out when I got on it 😕
