  • Sorry folks, this is likely being asked alot but I can't find anything using the search ...

    For apartment living, what are the best recommendations to avoid angry neighbours? I've read the Wahoo Kickr Core and Tacks FLUX S Smart, (budget wheel-off), are both quiet. Any opinions?

  • Run your washing machine at the same time, they won’t be able to tell.

    Other than that, those turbos are a good choice with a decent thickness mat.

  • any direct drive turbo will be quiter than wheel-on

  • Tacx Neo is also very quiet - I think the side to side movement helps reduce noise further as legs aren't absorbing as much movement. Older Wahoo Kickrs aren't that quiet - I think you need 3rd Gen onwards.
    Do you get on with downstairs neighbours? Discussing acceptable times to do it is probably useful - I think even the quietest trainers will generate some noise through the ceiling.

  • It has some trade-offs relative to a Neo or Kickr, but I use a 4iiii Fliiiight and am very happy with it. It's a wheel-on trainer, but the wheel is resisted by magnets, so it doesn't make physical contact with anything.
