Gooner Jul 2020 10:13am, 2 Jul 2020 16,606 posts	0 Gooner Hello Zwifty types. As some of you may know, I had a bit of an accident on my bike Tuesday and have broke my left radius and ulna so unsurprisingly have been told I shouldn't be cycling on the roads for a liitle while. I still have miles I need to get in for a challenge for charity so I am considering getting a turbo trainer to join Zwift until I'm allowed out again. My question is does anybody run Zwift on their phone (I have a Galaxy S9 edge) and is it worth it on the smaller platform? TIA. G.

simbil Jul 2020 11:10am, 2 Jul 2020 8,732 posts	0 simbil I use a dumb trainer and have used phone but prefer laptop. With a dumb trainer at a constant resistance you can just use gears and cadence to change how much wattage you put out. It does require a power meter though, so can see the attraction of a smart trainer to get everything in one package. For me I want power on the road as well as Zwift do use Stages power crank and swap it around bikes.
