Indoor Trainer

Wahoo's latest innovation literally changes the level of your indoor workout! The KICKR CLIMB indoor mountain simulator is designed for exclusive use with the new KICKR and the new SNAP (2017 model year). When connected to your bike, the devices change the degree of incline during your indoor workout. The CLIMB is compatible with third-party apps. Whether you're riding a virtual track or performing a structured workout, the KICKR CLIMB changes both the degree of incline/descent and the resistance to create a truly spectacular riding experience. After all, the world is not flat - and therefore neither is your ride!

CAUTION: the manufacturer specifically states that the KICKR CLIMB should not be used with the old models of the KICKR and KICKR SNAP, as their design would cause the dropout of the frame to rub against the axle mount when rotating up and down. This could result in damage to the frame.

Features of the KICKR CLIMB

Changing the gradient in real time
The KICKR CLIMB physically adjusts to the position of your bike to simulate realistic road and hill climbs. This allows you to naturally change position on the bike, work specific muscle groups and improve pedaling technique to become a more efficient and powerful mountain rider outdoors.

Climbs of up to 20% and descents of up to -10%.
The KICKR CLIMB raises and lowers your bike to simulate inclines of up to 20% and declines of up to -10% when connected to the new KICKR or new SNAP. Hill climbs are more realistic than ever during stationary training!

Compatible with the Wahoo KICKR and KICKR SNAP.
The KICKR CLIMB is designed to be used with the new KICKR and KICKR SNAP stationary bike trainers (2017 editions) to ensure the best possible riding experience. It can be connected directly to the Smart Trainer to control the KICKR CLIMB.

Synchronization from close range
Sync your KICKR or KICKR SNAP quickly and directly with the remote control of the KICKR CLIMB. Press the remote button and off you go!

Lock and Unlock approach modes
Unlock mode allows the CLIMB to respond to the changing degree of incline from external sources, such as Zwift or TrainerRoad, or from your bike computers, ELEMNT or ELEMNT BOLT GPS.
Lock mode ensures that the KICKR CLIMB only responds to instructions from the remote control.

Manual gradient adjustment with the remote control
The KICKR CLIMB's remote control is mounted on the handlebars, allowing you to adjust the incline with the simple push of a button. When not in use, it can be conveniently stored on the top of the KICKR CLIMB.

Compatible with third-party apps
When synced with a KICKR or KICKR SNAP, the KICKR CLIMB adjusts to the changed degree of incline from select training platforms, such as Zwift and TrainerRoad, to ensure a truly spectacular riding experience. Whether you're riding a virtual track or performing a structured workout, the KICKR CLIMB changes both the degree of incline and resistance to help you get more out of your workout. Check out our FAQs for a full list of compatible apps.

Compatible with Wahoo ELEMNT and ELEMNT BOLT.
When you pair the ELEMNT or ELEMNT BOLT with the KICKR and KICKR CLIMB systems, you'll experience realistic ups and downs of your favorite rides or routes with your stationary trainer.
