## What is TrainerControl?

Transform your smart trainer into the ultimate indoor cycling experience.
TrainerControl connects to any FTMS-compatible indoor bike or smart trainer via Bluetooth, giving you complete control over your indoor cycling workouts.

RIDE LEGENDARY ROUTES
Ride real-world climbs and famous roads, built from actual GPS tracks and elevation data:
• Alpe d'Huez – all 21 hairpins from Bourg-d'Oisans
• Mont Ventoux from Bédoin
• Passo dello Stelvio from Prato
• Central Park Loop, NYC
• Milan–San Remo finale over the Cipressa and Poggio
• Ironman Kona's Queen K Highway
Follow your position live on a map as you ride, with a smooth-gliding marker and a camera that follows you through every bend.

SIMULATION MODE
Experience realistic outdoor riding indoors. Resistance adjusts automatically to the terrain under your wheels.
• Elevation profiles coloured by gradient, so you see the steep parts coming
• Automatic grade changes as you progress
• Virtual gears (22 gears) for natural shifting
• Free Ride mode for when you just want to pedal
• Import any GPX file from your outdoor rides
• Draw your own routes on an interactive map with snap-to-road

ERG MODE TRAINING
Structured workouts where your trainer holds the power and you just pedal.
• Ready-made workouts like 2x20 Sweet Spot and 4x8 Threshold, scaled to your FTP
• Build and save your own interval workouts
• Time-based or distance-based intervals
• Adjust the intensity mid-workout when you're feeling strong, or not

FIND YOUR FTP

• Every workout scales to your current FTP

YOUR WORKOUT SCREEN, YOUR WAY
• Build your own live dashboard from an editable grid of metrics

COMPLETE WORKOUT LOGBOOK
Every session is saved automatically:
