OK, so the turbo is on order (kickr snap). I've got iphone, ipad and windows 10 laptop with built in bluetooth. I guess I need a heart rate monitor and a dongle to connect trainer and heart monitor to laptop (or is this bluetooth?)
Really need specific help here - any links of what to buy?
Thanks
I'd get an ANT+ dongle for the laptop.
I tried the bloetooth and it was crap
Ant+ dongle and a USB extension lead. I leave the Ant+ on the turbo trainers leg then run the cable to the laptop. Just means the signal is stronger as the ant+ is near the turbo and cadence sensor.
You might also want a Garmin speed and cadence sensor on the bike. Just improves data and accuracy
I also use an extension cable from there to move the dongle closer to the trainer.
Cadence sensor is needed. I ended up getting a Wahoo Tickr and Wahoo Speed and cadence sensor for my set up (all of which connect direct to my Ipad with bluetooth along with my smart turbo). A fan is definitely needed also some form of a mat too, so you do not destroy your floor.
