Garmin TacX® Alpine, Gradient Simulator for Indoor Training | Gradient Simulator for Tacx® NEO 3M & 2T Smart Trainers, Replicate Grades from up to 25% and Down to −10%

A real game changer when riding with Zwift and Zwift Click. Hang on as Zwift rolling hills come on quickly with the Alpine quietly and seamlessly operates in the background. As realistic as it comes! Note: Keeping the Alpine level is an absolute must in order to keep the Zwift avatar from drifting. In the photo note that a piece of vynil plank was used to remedy a slight left tilt.

Makes it a lot more fun

I so wanted the Tacx Alpine to live up to the hype. Sadly, it was dud. There was an issue with BT connectivity. Simply put, the Alpine had to be re-paired to the Tacx app each time the Alpine was powered off. This, apparently, is a known issue. This is just unacceptable for what this thing cost. Garmin and Tacx have gone severely down hill the past few years, let’s hope this trend doesn’t continue.
