A real ride feel, indoors Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus

Featuring advanced training and performance metrics, the Tacx NEO Bike Plus is designed to make any indoor ride feel as realistic as possible.

• Mimic the feel of jumping into a different gear with the tap of a finger thanks to redesigned programmable shifters for SHIMANO, SRAM or Campagnolo.
• Feel different surfaces, like cobblestones and gravel, when paired with the Tacx Training app or compatible 3^rd party apps.
• Dynamic inertia helps maintain a sensation of forward motion based on speed and gradient.
• Accurately imitate a downhill drive with descent simulation when connected to an external power source.
• Measure the position of the left and right legs to better analyze pedaling technique and develop a more effective pedal stroke.

Exceptional design

Providing accurate power measurement within 1% – plus reliable, consistent measurements for speed and cadence – the Tacx NEO Bike Plus gives cyclists a clear picture of their performance. Featuring a well-balanced design that ensures maximum stability, the Tacx NEO Bike Plus is one of the most silent indoor bikes available and is ready for any sprint, up to 2,200 watts. What’s more, cyclists can train for outdoor climbs, or build the intensity of an indoor workout, by training on realistically simulated inclines up to a 25% gradient.

Fully adjustable, the Tacx NEO Bike Plus is made to accommodate multiple athletes in a house. Five different crank lengths offer a precise, customized fit and the slim seatpost and handlebar stem can be adjusted up to the millimeter, making it easy to match settings to that of a rider’s outdoor bike. Plus, built-in interactive fans are automatically controlled by a rider’s power or heart rate.

Connect and perform

Featuring a 4.5-inch integrated display and two USB chargers, the Tacx NEO Bike Plus allows riders to enjoy the Tacx Training app and other popular training platforms on their smartphone, tablet or laptop and can even track their performance on their Garmin Edge^® cycling computer. With a premium subscription to the Tacx Training app, riders can better immerse themselves in their indoor training experience with more than 250 high-quality, real-life videos from around the world and can even join “Ride with the Pros” challenges with exclusive Garmin-sponsored team videos. Cyclists can also follow structured workouts, race live opponents, upload GPS data, ride with 3D maps and more. Plus, following a ride, all the data a cyclist relies on most is in the Garmin Connect™ app – making it easy to view ride stats and maps or analyze their progress from anywhere.
