speed and distance number mismatch between turbo trainer and on-bike speed sensor?
I have a Elite Qubo Digital Smart B+ trainer, when paired with Zwift (iOS, via BT), the speed and distance much lower than that from the on-bike speed / cadence sensor (Garmin ANT+, paired with Fenix 3).
Is there a way to set it up so they match?

Fake the wheel circumference where its easiest.
Don't expect any practical use from it though.
Any speed/mileage value generated on a stationary bike is by definition fake.
Pretty much only good for comparing one training session to the next.

Just keep track of your time. If you run the trainer in ergo mode the speed picked up by you Garmin will change depending on gearing. It's meaningless.
