CrossFit Classes. Fortius Competitor Program. Joined: Jul 28, Messages: 26 Likes Received: 0. I'm looking at either the Fortius or the Computrainer.
Based on what I read, I may be leaning toward the latter, but I'd love to hear your experience. Will post experiences tomorrow. I don't know If I can give you a definitive answer ref buy the Fortius over the Computrainer but I can tell you that having used other turbo trainers in previous years and having been bored rigid whilst using them I think the Fortius is a fantastic way to alleviate boredom whilst getting the training done.
I suspect the Computrainer might be just as good maybe its better but who knows but I haven't had the opportunity to try it. See my post tomorrow. It'll be quite a long one. Fortius experience. Note: everything said here constitutes my experiences and opinions and not those of Tacx.
I have not tried a Computrainer. I suspect both machines are good and that both will have their little foibles.
I am a cyclist coming back to the sport from a low fitness base no sustained exercise for around 15 years but on and off exercise every couple of years—mostly rowing. I am now 20 pounds overweight started at 30 pounds overweight but lost quite a bit in my first 6 weeks of rowing this year. A looming holiday plus a want to change myself plus an exercise related goal means that I have to get with the program and focus.
The traffic is really bad too. The problem is I hate turbo trainers they are boring to use … very boring. So Cosmos or Fortius? The Cosmos seemed to me to be a Fortius without a PC connection. It was stand alone. If I went to visit friends or went on holiday I could take it with me. The Fortius on the other hand needs a PC connection at all times and can connect to a steering unit. After posting messages here to which I got no answers and going to my LBS who answered some of the questions I asked I discovered that the Fortius can be upgraded with the Cosmos Head Unit to give it a stand alone capability.
It can also use the steering unit. The Cosmos can be upgraded with a Fortius multiplayer head unit to give it a PC VR and real world video capability and in fact can also use the steerer unit. Bear in mind that neither the Fortius nor the Cosmos will provide any sort of steering function when connected to the steerer if not first connected to a PC running the Fortius software.
I went for the Fortius as whilst standalone will prove useful ultimately. Initially I had no use for it and wanted the real life videos more. First point. The instructions IMHO are a bit useless. The diagrams are too small to make out where parts should be placed. In spite of this I managed to put it together within 45 mins taking it easy and whilst drinking coffee. Attaching the machine to the bike is relatively straightforward. You connect the head unit and cadence sensor to the bike and then plug the cadence sensor and head unit to the break unit.
The cadence sensor is attached to your LH chain stay with some small bungees easy to get on but quite difficult to take off. When I take the bike on the road I will leave the sensor on the bike and tape the cable to the frame. I wrapped the cadence sensor wire round the chain stay and the leg of the Fortius so there was no danger of it becoming entangled with the rear wheel. Getting the machine setup with the pc was more of a hassle. My brand new laptop is using Windows Vista talk about an irrelevant OS.
What was wrong with XP? The laptop is a Dell Vostro with a 2. I suspect that any modern pc with 1gb of ram and a core 2 duo or AMD 64 processor with a decent desktop card mb of ram plus would do fine. My issues with Fortius PC software installation relate to Vista. It will not take the USB drivers and register them correctly. This means that I have to unplug the cable connecting the head unit to the PC.
To calibrate the unit you put your bike on the unit. Select the calibration option. Select start calibration and turn the pedals about 1 revolution after which the motor brake wakes up and start spinning the back wheel. During the period at which it spins you should not spin the pedals at all.
It spins the rear wheel for about 30 seconds and then pops up a set of numbers. These supposedly tell you whether the machine is calibrated to be slower or faster than real life. The manual is a bit sparse on what the information from calibration means.
