Stand-out features
Feature Why it matters
Direct-drive drivetrain No rear wheel = zero tyre slip, reduced noise and rock-solid power transfer.
Integrated Optical Torque Sensor (OTS) Measures power with ±2.5 % accuracy for structured ERG workouts and racing.
Controllable electronic resistance Holds up to 1,400 W @ 40 km h-¹ and simulates 14 % gradients – enough for brutal sprints or Alp-style climbs.
Dual-protocol connectivity ANT+ FE-C and Bluetooth FTMS mean instant pairing with head-units and every major training platform, including MyWhoosh, Zwift, Rouvy, Wahoo SYSTM and Kinomap.
4.2 kg flywheel (virtual 30 kg) Gives realistic inertia so accelerations and freewheeling feel like riding outdoors.
Broad bike compatibility Works with 130/135 mm QR road/MTB drop-outs and 142×12 mm thru-axles; Shimano/SRAM 9/10/11-speed cassettes fit straight on.

> Heads-up on model ID
The casing in the photos carries a “Turbo Muin” badge – an earlier Elite direct-drive design that shares the same chassis but uses fluid resistance (non-controllable) and a Misuro B⁺ sensor. If you specifically need full ERG/gradient control, double-check the firmware label before purchase. (Turbo Muin reference: 2 200 W power curve, 5.9 kg fly-wheel, 17 kg unit weight).
