Frequently Asked Questions - Kickr Core Wahoo

How do I install my bike on the Kickr Core?

Remove the rear wheel, place the chain on the smallest sprocket, then align it with the Kickr's cassette. Insert the quick release or thru axle and tighten firmly. Use the Wahoo app to complete the setup.

What types of bikes are compatible?

The Kickr Core is compatible with bikes with 130/135 mm quick release and 12x142/12x148 mm thru axle. Adapters are provided.

Do I need to use a specific cassette?

The Kickr Core requires a 9, 10 or 11 speed cassette (not included). For 9/10 speed, use the provided 1.8 mm spacer. The cassette is secured with a lockring (tool not included).

How do I calibrate the Kickr Core?

Before first use, then every two weeks, perform a spindown via the Wahoo app. This ensures reliable power data.

What training modes are available?

The Wahoo app offers four modes: Level (progressive resistance), Resistance (fixed brake), ERG (constant power) and Simulation (simulates outdoor conditions).

Can I use the Kickr Core without the app?

No, the Wahoo app is required for calibration, updates and mode control. It is available on iOS and Android.

Is the Kickr Core noisy?

The Kickr Core is designed to be quiet. Noise depends on your bike's drivetrain and resistance. It is generally quieter than a classic home trainer.

ATTACHING YOUR BICYCLE

Shift your bicycle chain into the smallest sprocket in the front and rear, then remove your rear wheel. Install your bicycle on the KICKR CORE by aligning the the chain with the smallest sprocket on the KICKR CORE and pressing down to fully seat the dropouts on the KICKR CORE's axle.

For bicycles with quick release - Secure your bicycle by tightening the quick release acorn nut and clamping the quick release lever shut. The quick release lever is "open" when it curves away from the bicycle frame (5); the lever is "closed" when it curves towards the

bicycle frame (6). The handle of the quick release skewer is always on the non-drive (non cassette) side of the KICKR CORE. Only use the provided quick release skewer while using the KICKR CORE.

For bicycles with thru axle -

Secure your bicycle by reinstalling your bicycle's thru axle (7) and tightening to manufacturer specifications (8).

CAUTION! Failure to properly tighten the quick release skewer or thru axle may result in property damage or personal injury. If you are unsure of the proper tension, please consult your local bike shop or contact Wahoo Fitness for assistance. Do NOT ride the KICKR CORE until the quick release skewer or thru axle is tightened.

PROTIP: Lift the front wheel up while pressing down on the saddle to ensure the bicycle is fully seated on the trainer.

COMPLETE YOUR SETUP USING THE WAHOO APP

SPINDOWN: Before using the KICKR CORE for the first time you should perform a spindown to calibrate your device. Additionally, a spindown should be repeated approximately every 2 weeks through the Wahoo App to ensure the most accurate power data.

START A WORKOUT: From the workout screen select the green "Start" button to begin the workout. Swipe right to view the KICKR CORE page. This page enables you to view your workout and control the KICKR CORE.

KICKR CORE WORKOUT MODES: The Wahoo App has the following workout modes that you can use to control your KICKR CORE:

LEVEL: Just like riding on a fluid or wind trainer, the faster you go, the harder it gets. The level you select determines the progression of your power curve.

RESISTANCE: This allows you to set the resistance of the brake anywhere from 0 to 100% . Regardless of speed, the brake will remain set until you decide to change it.

ERG: Set your desired power, the KICKR CORE will increase or decrease the resistance to maintain a constant power output, regardless of speed.

SIM: Enter your weight, bike type, riding position, headwind and grade and the KICKR CORE will accurately model the power curve just as if you were riding outdoors.
