Wattbike Hub

My initial experience using the hub app has only been positive. A great selection of workouts and programs to help guide your fitness. I was loving it! Unfortunately the most recent update has caused my app to crash 3-4 times within the last week resulting in incomplete training sessions and lost data. So frustrating, especially when 40+ minutes in to a workout. Occasionally it also shows incorrect data in relation to cadence and power output.

I have a membership which I use for custom workouts. However, the latest update (6.6.1) has broken custom workouts on the app. I am unable to scroll on that window

It doesn’t matter which workout you select, there is a mismatch between the power being asked for and cadence. For example, the workout will ask for 135W at a cadence of 90, so you would expect to achieve 135W if spinning at 90. No, at 90 you are knocking out around 200W. To achieve 135W, you need to spin at around 45. This doesn’t make sense and can be exhausting. If you try a ‘quick ride’, the wattage seems to increase until you can barely pedal, even if in manual gear control. This is for the Proton, and I’ve seen other reviews saying the same

Awesome kit ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another hour wasted trying to Bike linked to hub when Bluetooth is on from bike. No useful online support. Shocking!

The Wattbike maintains summer fitness right through winter. The Ride training plans are a brilliant discipline to follow and it’s great to be able to throw in the odd special mountain section. The bike is easy to tailor and after just over 18 months and nearly 200 rides it hasn’t missed a beat. A great training aid.

The start - The app seems to need me to accept the terms and conditions every time I startup the app and the process of logging is clunky. The middle - the app is fine. When I sign up to a plan there is an annoying progress bar that gets in the way of looking at options at the bottom of each section. During the ride it is great. Everything works how I would expect. The end - the app does not seem to log data to Apple Health. It has done it once. I have no idea why. I need to have my Apple Watch tracking an indoor ride and my IPhone on Wattbike. Not great.

Improvement should be made on workouts in general, wether it’s plans of summer/winter specials. By just adding for instance intervals off the saddle, and even more importantly, make the prompt very loud and lasting longer on the screen.

Originally when I used this everything was fine! Now there have been constant issues with my Wattbike data synching through to Strava! Seems to be happening more and more these days. When the app is working it’s great!

WattBike Hub does not work with WB Proton. If I Quick Start ride the resistance just gets harder and harder until I can’t pedal anymore. Same problem if using Gear or Ergo mode and changing gears or target watts has no effect. Tried updating software and reverting to Beta software. Tried disconnecting, clearing and reconnecting Bluetooth. None of the support articles in Wattbike Hub relate to a Proton.
