User reviews

Grade Change doesn't work

On a wahoo Kickr: Speed changes. Grade does not change. So, I guess it only half works.

Response from developer

Thank you for pointing this out and sorry for the non-operation of this feature. We found the issue and should have elevation control working correctly on a Wahoo Kickr in version 1.8 that we are working on now. Hope to have it uploaded in a few days. And hope you might revise your rating once you have a chance to confirm.
