Indoor training as smooth as possible: Tacx® NEO 2T Smart T2875 Direct Drive Trainer by Garmin
The NEO 2T Smart still has the acclaimed features like Road feel, Dynamic inertia and Descent simulation. The Pedal stroke analysis is improved and can now be viewed with third party apps, enabling you to improve your power distribution and cycling performance with the software of your choice. This bike trainer is also easier to use as it is compatible with almost all rear axles directly out of the box.
With the Tacx NEO 2T Smart Garmin has revolutionized the market by creating something that was perceived impossible: a completely silent trainer. By redesigning the internal components, they were able to significantly improve the stillness and power of the NEO 2T. The noise coming from internal air displacements is reduced even more and the same goes for the vibrations noticed at a low cadence. The very powerful resistance unit is able to simulate incline gradients up to 25% and sprints up to 2200 Watts. Moreover, it can deliver a very high resistance when cycling at low speeds, in small gears and on very steep climbs. This enables very realistic hill climb and sprint simulations. The little bit of flex allowed by its frame improves the ride feel even more. This direct drive trainer also measures your power with incredible precision, making sure that your data is accurate within 1% and reliable.
It is the only trainer that doesn't require a calibration process because; in contrast to other trainers, there are no internal transmissions. The NEO 2T Smart is equipped with a capacitive left and right detection sensor that accurately measures the exact position of both your legs. This allows for a detailed and accurate pedal stroke analysis enabling you to improve your power distribution and cycling performance. By adding standard ANT+ Cycling dynamics, you can analyse your pedal stroke via the software of third parties; for example on a Garmin Edge bike computer.
To make your indoor training as smooth as possible, Tacx developed a totally maintenance free bike trainer. There is no maintenance, no calibration and there are no adjustments required to train with the NEO 2T Smart. So you can completely focus on your training. This fully interactive Smart trainer measures your speed, cadence and power and can be controlled by the application of your choice. It wirelessly connects via ANT+ (FE-C) and Bluetooth in no time to cycling apps like Tacx, Zwift or TrainerRoad. Updating the NEO 2T Smart to the latest version is no hassle and goes easily with the Tacx Utility app, so you can always make use of the latest improvements and features. The smart electronics of the NEO 2T Smart also allow you to train stand alone, without any software connections. The resistance follows a progressive power curve, in accordance with cycling on a flat road. Add this to the fact that this direct drive trainer is self-powered and doesn’t require an external power source, and you have the ideal companion for your training camp or when you want to warm-up for a race.

Hightlights
Complete Stillness
By redesigning the magnets, we significantly improved the stillness of the NEO 2T. The noise coming from internal air displacements is reduced as well as vibrations noticed at a low cadence, that were being transferred to the floor. Resulting in a more silent Smart trainer then ever thought possible.
Smooth Ride feel
The NEO 2T Smart is very responsive and reacts instantly to speed or incline changes. It also features Dynamic inertia which it compensates for weight, speed and angle of inclination to ensure the most realistic and smooth ride feel possible.
Pedal Stroke Analysis
The NEO 2 was already equipped with a capacitive left and right detection sensor that accurately measures the exact position of both your legs. By adding standard ANT+ Cycling dynamics, you can now analyse your pedal stroke via the software of third parties; for example on a Garmin Edge bike computer.
Accurate and Reliable
The Tacx NEO 2T Smart measures your power with incredible precision, making sure that your data is accurate and reliable. This Smart trainers is the only trainers that doesn’t require calibration process. This Smart trainer measures your power accurately within 1%.
Powerful climbs and sprints
The new motor design of the NEO 2T also improves the ride feel during a climb or acceleration. We were able to give the motor of the NEO 2T more power, resulting in the ability to generate higher resistance levels under specific conditions, like in a sprint or at low speeds.
Compatible with many axles
The rear axle of the NEO 2T Smart is redesigned in order to make it compatible with more bikes, without the need for adapters. It is directly compatible with all bikes, only for 135×10 and 135×12 you’ll need an additional adapter.

Jahrelang hab ich es mit dem KICKR versucht. Immer wieder technische Probleme, zurücksenden an Wahoo etc. Dann kam der Neo 2T und ich stelle gerade fest, der läuft seit 2 Jahren einfach wie er soll. Absolut grandioses Trainingstool. Ein Feature das leider kaum Erwähnung findet, ist der kabellose Betrieb (wenn man z.b. keinen Leerlauf simulieren möchte/muss). Bedeutet, normale Workouts können ohne externe Stromzufuhr absolviert werden. Hinstellen (egal wo) Rad drauf, los geht’s. Bin kein fanatischer Öko aber das Dynamo-Prinzip „in groß“ finde ich klasse. Energie produziert man beim Training nun mehr als genug. Kurzum, wenn Smarttrainer dann den Neo!
Tolles Produkt, einfache Bedienung und wenn es Probleme gibt ist der Support von Bike Discount einfach super..5 STERNE für die Abklärung mit Garmin Danke nochmal.
