Hello,

Any money you spend on a smart-trainer/Zwift setup is well worth it, so only cry once if you can (buy good stuff). It will easily have you in the best shape of your life when others are just getting re-started for the Spring.

Display it on a HDTV if you can. As atwl77 said, you need a dongle. I wasted 36 hours trying every single thing in the world to get BT running. I bought an ANt+ dongle and I was riding in seconds.

You'll need a mat and water-resistant area, fans, 2-3x the towels you think you'll need, 2-3x as much laundry will need to be done for towels and riding clothes. Buy sweat bands to help control the sweat too.

I have learned so much about perfecting bike fit and my form while riding is now automatic. Two weeks of Zwift gave me 2+ mph averages outdoors and I was not even trying. I looked down and my speeds were that much faster.

It is a very good thing.

oops, Sorry I can't help with trainer choice. I went with a kickR myself.
