Most support data, but if you’re unsure and have a Garmin/Wahoo/etc lying around, plug it into your computer and ensure that you can see the Garmin/Wahoo/whatever in your computer.

COROS Rolls Out EvoLab – Revamped Training Load Metrics: A Detailed Explainer

www.dcrainmaker.com/2021/05/revamped-training-explainer.html

For example, Wahoo doesn’t have any training load or recovery metrics for their RIVAL watch.

TrainerRoad Opens Up New Outside Workouts Feature, Outlines Bike Computer Integration

www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/04/trainerroad-workouts-integration.html

Down the road though, that’s via legit technology driven instructions on your bike computer (first on Garmin, and then at some point on Wahoo) – just the same as other pre-planned workouts.

It’s Coming Back! Strava Begins Bluetooth Sensor Beta Test

www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/09/testing-bluetooth-sensors.html

Sure, they could have used a 3rd party app from Wahoo or otherwise, but it’s rarely a good idea to push core functionality out of your own app.

Suunto Race In-Depth Review: The Best Suunto Yet?

www.dcrainmaker.com/2023/11/suunto-amoled-review.html

This allows us to see the exact battery levels throughout these longer activities for devices/companies that support the data (Garmin,…

FulGaz rolls out Apple TV App–First Ride Details

www.dcrainmaker.com/2018/08/fulgaz-rolls-details.html

That’s because Wahoo remains one of the only trainers to not include cadence data within the native trainer sensor stream.

An early quick look at the Tacx iPad trainer app

www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/09/an-early-quick-look-at-tacx-ipad.html

The app aims to control the Tacx trainer via the use of an ANT+ adapter/key (similar to the Wahoo Fitness ANT+ iPhone/iPad adapter/dongle).

Hello Australia! I’m crashing your country through March!

Not just me, but Shane Miller (GPLama), then the crew from Wahoo Fitness, FulGaz, and The Sufferfest! Boom! More than…

Kinomap demonstrates route builder software, adds CycleOps PowerBeam support, Sony Action Cam integration

www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/09/demonstrates-powerbeam-integration.html

I’ve previously covered Kinomap functionality within the Wahoo KICKR review (so check that out for a more general overview).

PowerPod rolls out ANT+/Bluetooth Smart version, improved road surface algorithms

www.dcrainmaker.com/2016/09/powerpod-antbluetooth-algorithms.html

Having a spec for this would make it easier for 3rd party companies (Garmin, Wahoo, and now Stages) to implement live CDA data fields into their head units.

The Massive Eurobike Power Meter News Roundup: Quarq, Stages, SRM, PowerBeat, Ciclo, Verve Infocrank, Xpedo

www.dcrainmaker.com/2014/08/eurobike-powerbeat-infocrank.html

Those metrics can be viewed on compatible head units – like a Garmin Edge – or on apps that support ANT+, such as the Wahoo Fitness App with an adapter.

Peloton’s Interesting Indoor Cycling Bike Platform

www.dcrainmaker.com/2016/01/pelotons-interesting-platform.html

Anyway, my friend was asking me how to compare that against something like an electronic trainer from Tacx or Wahoo.

Tacx Genius Trainer In-Depth Review

www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/02/genius-trainer-review.html

Additionally, the lack of openness in the platform today makes it less appealing long term and companies are shifting towards providing a more open platform (for example, the Wahoo KICKR, and resent statements from CycleOps around adopting the same control platform for their trainer).

Finally summer! A look at my brick-taper weekend.

www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/07/finally-summer-weekend.html

Why is that a problem you ask? Well, because it was naturally controlling the Wahoo KICKR.

Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch In-Depth Review

www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/12/garmin-smartwatch-sports.html

Typically I’d wear a chest strap (usually the Garmin HRM-DUAL or Wahoo TICKR X) as well as another optical HR sensor watch on the other wrist (lately the Polar OH1 Plus, as well as the new Mio Pod lately).

Garmin Fenix In-Depth Review

www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/10/garmin-fenix-in-depth-review.html

So anyone could leverage it in the same way you can interact with other ANT+ devices, such as an app with a Wahoo iPhone adapter.

Shimano’s Dura-Ace & Ultegra Power Meter (2nd Gen): Technical Deep-Dive

www.dcrainmaker.com/2021/09/shimano-ultegra-details.html

Also, that’ll probably give good reason for companies like Wahoo, Stages, and Hammerhead to fully support the cycling dynamics standard before Shimano users arrive later this year.

Elite Sterzo Steering/Riser Block Accessory In-Depth Review

www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/03/elites-steering-accessory.html

However, it will not work with the Wahoo CLIMB, since that removes your front wheel.

Annual Public Service Announcement: How to fix heart rate strap dropouts/spikes

www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/12/annual-public-service-announcement-how-to-fix-heart-rate-strap-dropoutsspikes.html

On the Bluetooth Smart side, the Wahoo Blue HR strap is really solid and I don’t think I’ve ever seen any spikes/dropouts with it.

COROS April 2024 Update Adds Slate of New Features

www.dcrainmaker.com/2024/04/coros-update-features.html

In particular, I’m keen to see how they could expand on some of the screen mirroring features, especially around navigation, to allow quicker/easier phone-driven navigation routes pushed back to the watch on the fly (akin to what Wahoo does for their bike computers).

Garmin Fenix 7 vs Epix: A Very Detailed Comparison

www.dcrainmaker.com/2022/01/garmin-detailed-comparison-review.html

This will properly display battery durations for devices from Garmin, Wahoo, Stages, and Hammerhead.

GoPro Camera Control Now Available on Garmin Watches

www.dcrainmaker.com/2024/08/garmin-watch-gopro-camera-control.html

And thus, it’s Garmin that’s making the money here (whereas Wahoo gives their GoPro control functionality for free, albeit it’s more fiddly).
