£549.99 | 20.5kg
The Decathlon D900 Smart Trainer is a new high-end trainer from Decathlon that boasts a serious spec at a laughably low cost. It uses a 5.2kg flywheel to generate electromagnetic resistance of up to 2,000 watts and can simulate up to a 20% incline virtually. It has a claimed accuracy of +/-2%, meaning that at 200 watts it should read between 196 and 204 watts.
It comes fitted with a Shimano road 8/9/10/11/12 speed compatible freehub, while a SRAM XDR hub can be purchased separately. It also features adaptors for QR 130-135 x 5 mm and Thru Axle 142-148 x 12 mm, but states that it is not compatible with the Cervelo P5 or the Cube Attain.
The total weight is 20.5kg, but there is a carry handle at the top that makes moving the trainer around much easier. The legs feature height adjustable feet at each corner to ensure the trainer and bike are level. A quick release, front wheel riser, power cable for EU/UK/US/Asia, and multitool for all adjustments are included. However, a cassette is not.
In use
Setting up the D900 Trainer was easy. The front foot needs fitting using the supplied nuts and bolts, then the cassette goes on. Select the appropriate end caps, plug it in and you're good to go.
