Simple question, can the Wahoo BOLT simulate gradient changes on a Tacx Flow Smart trainer when selecting a route?

Thanks

    Hi. could anyone explain how this is done?

    I can only seem to get 'passive' mode (allow another app to control kickr!) on the mode screen even tho the tacx flow shows up on the connected sensors page on the bolt and the app

    It also shows kickr on location where normally you have option of indoor/outdoor

    I can get the flow to simulate grade on a course via the tacx app but not via the bolt. Driving me nuts!


    Thanks

    Cheers for the response. It looks like it should be the easiest thing in the world but....

    Still saying i have a kickr connected on location. Am going for the nuclear option factory reset and delete app and try again. Can't test it till later tho.

    Oh bollocks to it.

    Will work with sufferfest and the tacx app, but can't get the bolt to control via erg (will allow me to manually change resistance via the unit). Not the biggest problem but irritating.
