Zwift, the global online fitness platform, and Wahoo Fitness, the leading endurance athlete fitness technology company, are pleased to announce the Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One, a collaboration between both companies.

The Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One delivers near-universal compatibility with 8- to 12-speed bikes, thanks to the pre-installed Zwift Cog and Virtual Shifting via the included Zwift Click.

Thanks to the introduction of virtual shifting, the Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One means almost any 8- to 12-speed bike now has the potential to unlock the virtual world of Zwift. Riders can immerse themselves in Zwift’s virtual terrain, feeling every gradient change as they explore new roads and gain fitness while riding with a global community.

Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One is ready to ride from the box, making it easier than ever to get started on Zwift. Zwift Click and Cog allow users to change gears silently, and 24 virtual gears help cyclists conquer every climb in Zwift.

The Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One is now available to buy in the United States, United Kingdom, and the European Union for $599/£549/€599, including one year of Zwift membership, on zwift.com and wahoofitness.com.

For the first time, customers located in Australia and Canada will be able to access Zwift’s innovative virtual shifting. Customers in these locations will be able to purchase the Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One via wahoofitness.com from late March.

The Wahoo KICKR CORE Zwift One will be sold alongside the recently launched Wahoo KICKR CORE with choice of 8/9/10/11/12 speed cassette, also sold with a one-year Zwift subscription via zwift.com and wahoofitness.com.

Rolling out between February 7th and 8th, existing owners of Wahoo KICKR CORE trainers will be able to upgrade to virtual shifting using Zwift Play. In addition to virtual shifting, Zwift Play controllers put you in control of everything on Zwift from your handlebars and unlock new immersive gameplay, thanks to steering and braking controls. Zwift Plays can be bought from zwift.com in the United States, United Kingdom and the European Union for $99/£99/€99.
