Enjoy a more premium indoor training experience with Strummer BT-10. Using a fluid resistance system, this trainer provides a smoother, more natural pedaling sensation for indoor cycling workouts.
The BT-10 features a built-in Bluetooth-based power meter, allowing it to connect to a mobile phone, tablet/iPad, or laptop for integration with indoor training apps such as Zwift and Rouvy. This trainer can also connect to a Garmin cyclocomputer that supports Bluetooth, recognizing the trainer as a power meter.
Please note that the Strummer BT-10 does not support ERG mode and does not support automatic resistance simulation that follows climbs in the app. This trainer is designed to read the power output you produce while pedaling. For cadence data, you will need a separate cadence sensor.
Designed to accommodate various bicycle wheel sizes, from 26 inches to 29 inches, as well as 700c, making it suitable for many types of bicycles.
Compatibility
The Strummer BT-10 is suitable for bicycles with a quick release skewer system on the rear hub measuring 10 × 135 mm to 10 × 142 mm.
For bicycles with a thru axle system, a trainer compatible axle 12 × 142 mm is available separately, with the following options:
Strummer 12 × 142 mm Trainer Thru Axle Options
-
Thru Axle Strummer, Trainer, 12 × 142 mm, M12 × 170L × P1.0 × 25, Silver
SKU: ASQR-00012SL -
Thru Axle Strummer, Trainer, 12 × 142 mm, M12 × 170L × P1.5 × 25, Silver
SKU: ASQR-00013SL -
Thru Axle Strummer, Trainer, 12 × 142 mm, M12 × 170L × P1.75 × 25, Silver
SKU: ASQR-00014SL
For bicycles measuring 12 × 142 mm, you must first check the pitch of your bicycle's thru axle. Pitch information can usually be found on the thru axle, but the axle generally needs to be removed first so the writing can be seen clearly.
If there is no pitch information on the axle, we recommend:
- contacting your bicycle manufacturer / brand, or
- taking manual measurements
This is important so you can choose the correct trainer thru axle.
Bicycles measuring 12 × 148 mm may also be supported, but require extra attention. First, make sure that your 12 × 148 mm bicycle can use the thru axle for bike trainer Strummer. The main things to check are the size and length of the thru axle.
If the axle is long enough for your bicycle, it can be used and the trainer can be installed. However, if the thru axle is too short, it cannot be used for that bicycle.
If you still want to use a trainer at home, but your bicycle cannot use a replacement thru axle and therefore cannot be mounted on this trainer, particularly some bicycles with the 12 × 148 mm standard, we recommend:
Hybrid Bike Roller Strummer BR-700H
SKU: BTRAN-00011BKSL
Usage Recommendations
For an optimal experience, we recommend using tires with a smooth tread to provide:
- less vibration
- lower noise
- a more comfortable indoor training experience
Make sure the trainer is installed correctly and securely before use.
If you use a Strummer trainer thru axle on the BT-10, make sure the spacer is installed correctly to maintain the required distance between the trainer clamping system and the bicycle frame. This is important to help prevent scratches or damage to the frame.
Connection with Garmin
If you use a Garmin cyclocomputer with Bluetooth functionality, the BT-10 trainer can be connected as a power meter.
How to connect:
- Pedal the bicycle first to activate the sensor on the trainer.
- Open the sensor menu on your Garmin device.
- Add the trainer as a power meter.
