If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, we cannot offer you a refund or exchange.To be eligible for a refund or exchange, goods must be returned in a re-saleable condition. That means your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. The item must be in the original packaging and returned with any accessories, labels and “free gifts” or bonus items.

To complete your refund or exchange, we require a receipt or proof of purchase.

But this right is limited to 30 days from the date you took ownership of the goods (this could be the date of purchase or the date the goods were delivered to you - whichever is later).

After the initial 30 days, you can't demand a full refund in the first instance, but you still have the right to a repair or replacement.

A deduction will be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which a customer can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

ThinkRider A1 Direct Drive Turbo Trainer

Brand:Thinkrider

Code:THINKA1

ThinkRider in 2021 have launched this new innovation to address indoor training without annoying those close to you in other rooms or neighbours. The A1 allows complete flexibility for indoor use as it requires no power which for a direct drive turbo trainer is a first. This unit is ideal for indoor apartments and is small and portable enough to be tucked behind a sofa, under a bed or in a small cupboard. This is THE quietest direct drive turbo trainer available.

The concept was to bring direct drive turbo training at an affordable price without breaking the bank and your neighbours!.

The A1 is a direct drive one way smart trainer - So what does this mean?

Well, simply put the trainer sends the power and speed readings / data one way to the app or training platform that you are using. If you are using Zwift it will allow you to compete, have fun and increase your fitness. Being that the A1 is 1 way smart it does mean that the resistance is fixed magnetically at 3% and there won't be resistance determined back to the trainer.

Features:

  • No cables required
  • Power measurement +/- 3%
  • Super simple set up that takes two minutes
  • Compatible with disc and rim bikes (130mm QR Skewer & 142/148 Adaptors Included)
  • Zwift and 3rd party app compatible with easy set up
  • 8 -11 speed compatible
  • 500+ hours life from the CR2032 battery.
  • Quietest turbo trainer in production at 56db
  • 15kgs
  • Please note - A cadence/speed sensor would be required if cadence/rev analysis is required (purchased separately)
  • The real innovation though is the A1's ability to create a power reading with a button CR2032 battery whilst only being 56db's at 20mph.
  • Connect via PC, Laptop, Tablet or Apple Tv using Bluetooth and ANT+
  • The A1 is precise to within +/- 3% and can handle up to 1300W of power from its magnetic flywheel which gives a fixed resistance of 3%
  • The A1 can also cope with a multitude of bike wheel sizes 24", 650b and from 26"-29" MTB and 700c Road. The unit can also take anything from 8 - 11 speed cassettes using Shimano/Sram compatible cassettes.
  • The unit comes with 142/148 thru axle adaptors and a quick release skewer for non disc bikes.
  • For the money this is a great entry point into direct drive turbo training. Quiet, fits every bike, works with Zwift, zero maintenance and with amazing precision and power capability. Look no further, the ThinkRider A1 has arrived !!!

FAQ's:

  • Will this unit connect to ZWIFT ?- Yes, this until will connect direct to ZWIFT and other 3rd party apps very easily- The unit and cadence sensor will connect immediately.
