Zwift Play and the Wahoo Kickr Bike

If you own the Wahoo Kickr bike, you already have handlebar-mounted buttons for things like using power-ups, turning left and right, making u-turns, etc., so you might be wondering how much value there might be to adding the new Zwift Play controllers to your system....

Rouvy or Zwift?

Replacing Peloton Crank Arms

Can I replace the crank arms on a Peloton bike? Yes, you can, but you can't just substitute your own crank arms (as you can with the pedals, cleats, or shoes). The Peloton crank arm on the left side of the bike is fairly conventional, but the one on the right is...
