Tacx FLUX 2 Smart Indoor Trainer
The Tacx FLUX 2 Smart delivers up to 2000 W of resistance, simulates gradients of up to 16%, and offers power measurement accuracy of up to ±2.5%. Its substantial 7.6 kg flywheel provides a realistic riding feel, while the stable construction stands up to demanding intervals and powerful sprints. Bluetooth and ANT+ FE-C connectivity allow you to connect the trainer to popular training apps such as Zwift and Tacx Training. The FLUX 2 Smart is an excellent choice for cyclists looking for a quiet, reliable direct-drive trainer for structured workouts, endurance training and virtual rides.
- Compared with the Tacx NEO 2T Smart: The FLUX 2 Smart offers up to 2000 W of resistance, gradient simulation of up to 16%, and power measurement accuracy of up to ±2.5%. The NEO 2T Smart is more powerful, providing up to 2200 W of resistance, gradient simulation of up to 25%, and accuracy of up to ±1%. The NEO 2T also features a virtual flywheel, Road Feel technology that simulates different road surfaces, downhill simulation, and a calibration-free system. The FLUX 2 uses a physical 7.6 kg flywheel and requires a spin-down test for calibration. Nevertheless, it provides a stable and capable training platform for most everyday workouts. The FLUX 2 is a good choice if you want reliable performance without needing all the advanced features of the NEO series.
- Compared with the Tacx FLUX S Smart: The FLUX 2 Smart offers higher maximum power (2000 W vs. 1500 W), steeper gradient simulation (16% vs. 10%), and more accurate power measurement (up to ±2.5% vs. up to ±3%). Its heavier flywheel provides a more realistic riding feel and smoother responses to changes in resistance. Both models use direct-drive technology and support Bluetooth and ANT+ FE-C connectivity for use with popular training apps. The FLUX S is suitable for recreational cyclists looking for a more affordable trainer for regular indoor workouts. The FLUX 2 is the better choice if you perform more intense intervals, train on steeper virtual climbs, or want additional power capacity as your fitness improves.
Why choose it: The Tacx FLUX 2 Smart combines reliable power measurement, a realistic flywheel and a stable design in a quiet direct-drive trainer. With up to 2000 W of resistance and gradient simulation of up to 16%, it offers plenty of capability for endurance training, structured workouts and challenging virtual climbs. Bluetooth and ANT+ FE-C connectivity ensure compatibility with popular training apps and supported bike computers. Its wide base helps keep the trainer stable during powerful sprints, while the heavy flywheel provides a smooth, natural pedalling feel. If you want to train indoors all year round without needing the most advanced features of the NEO series, the FLUX 2 Smart is a practical and capable choice.
