Entry-level direct-drive smart trainer
Tacx FLUX S Smart Trainer
The FLUX S is Tacx's most affordable direct-drive smart trainer, pairing a 7 kg flywheel with full ANT+ and Bluetooth control for riders moving up from wheel-on trainers.
Highlights
Why we rate it
Direct-drive entry point
Removing the rear wheel cuts tyre wear and slip and improves power accuracy over wheel-on trainers.
Solid flywheel
A 7 kg flywheel with 23 kg simulated inertia smooths out the pedal stroke.
App control
ANT+ FE-C and Bluetooth let Zwift, TrainerRoad and Tacx Training set resistance automatically.
Stand-alone mode
Rides with a simulated flat-road resistance even without an app connected.
