Wahoo Kickr Core 2 with Zwift Cog Smart Turbo Trainer

KICKR CORE is the smarter way to start riding indoors. It builds on the trusted performance of the original CORE, and introduces a faster and easier setup, better connectivity, and the addition of key features from the KICKR ecosystem. Whether you're just getting into indoor cycling, or upgrading your training space, CORE is ready to grow with you.

LEGENDARY KICKR RIDE FEEL

KICKR CORE delivers the smooth resistance and road-like feel that define the KICKR experience. With 1800 watts of max resistance and ±2% power accuracy, it’s built for hard efforts and structured training.

SIMPLE SETUP & STABLE RIDE

A simplified four-bolt assembly and color-coded leg components streamline setup and ensure a secure, stable build.

CONNECTED AND IN CONTROL

KICKR CORE simplifies your setup and streamlines your connection. Integrated WiFi delivers faster pairing and automatic updates when connected to an active WiFi network.

KICKR Bridge lets you channel data from heart rate monitors and controllers straight through the trainer—reducing pairing issues and cleaning up your device ecosystem. And with Race Mode built-in, CORE transmits power data faster to training apps than ever, keeping you in sync during every sprint and surge.

SHIFTING, YOUR WAY

KICKR CORE supports both traditional cassette-based setups and Wahoo’s virtual shifting. Choose from three configurations: one with an 11-speed cassette pre-installed, one with the Zwift Cog and Zwift Click for virtual shifting using your own bike, and one built for Zwift Ride integration. CORE is compatible with 8- to 12-speed drivetrains* and lets you train with the setup that matches your goals and gear—whether you prefer the tactile feel of mechanical shifting or the clean simplicity of wireless.

*KICKR CORE is compatible with 8-to 12-speed drivetrains. Shimano HG out of the box and SRAM XD/XDR or Campagnolo with replaceable freehub bodies (not compatible with Shimano Micro Spline)

WiFi & BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY

Faster, more stable app pairing with automatic firmware updates and improved device sync through the wifi connection.

KICKR BRIDGE

Streams data from heart rate monitors and other controllers (Zwift Click, Zwift Play or Zwift Ride) directly through the trainer to your training app, reducing device conflicts.

RACE MODE

Broadcasts power data up to 10x faster than the last CORE, for quicker responsiveness during hard accelerations.

UPDATED LED SYSTEM

New multi-color LEDs provide real-time feedback on connection status, firmware activity, and feature states.

VIRTUAL SHIFTING

Select from a large range of gears, and compatibility with electronic virtual shift control using Zwift Cog and Click.
