Wahoo is clearing out leftover 1st generation Kickr's for $900 - 25% discount to the new versions.

Down in my cave, noise is a non-issue, and it will likely never be moved so the cool new handle adds nada.

I understand the absolute accuracy is maybe 1% or so better, but the consistency is more important to me at this point and I haven't read where the new version is any better in that regard.

So is there anything else about the upgraded Kickr that might make you spend the extra $300?

Has reliability / durability been good on the 1st gen models?

Cheers,
Ken
