Last year Elite launched its first direct drive turbo trainer with fluid resistance to give a smooth, quiet indoor ride. For 2015, the turbo specialist has launched a new flagship machine – the Elite Real Turbo Muin – that adds electromagnetic resistance and compatibility with Real software to the mix.
Elite’s Real software allows riders, via ANT+, to take on video courses while also adding online play. The electromagnetic resistance means automatic changes in resistance to match the difficulty of the course profile being ridden, with the Real Turbo Muin being capable of emulating gradients of up to 18 per cent.
Check out the video below for the full scoop on the Elite Real Turbo Muin.
