Tacx Bushido PC Link (Wireless USB Stick & Software) 2011

In order to modernize your trainer even more you can extend the Bushido with the Upgrade PC.

• You can wirelessly link the Bushido to your PC with the Antenna USB stick. Your PC's screen clearly shows all data. 
• New Tacx Trainer software a world of unlimited possibilities opens up.

With the highly advanced Tacx Trainer software you will integrate your VR trainer and your computer into a team of untold capabilities.

New worlds unfold before you on your monitor which turn cycling at home into a spectacular event. Real Life Video thus enables you to conjure up virtually every hill of any importance on your computer and then climb it. You see before you, what would actually be seen and the equipment simulates all the elements that go to make the tour a real-life experience.

Going uphill the resistance increases, easing off as you go downhill.

Using the control panel on the handlebars you will constantly check how your performance is shaping up: power, heart rate, rhythm, speed time and so on. Virtual Reality terrains place the fun element centre stage.

Tacx Trainer software is supplied in as many as five different terrains.

Everything really is possible with GPS. Tours which have been ridden personally can be rerun in their entirety thanks to Google Earth.

True to life but without the disadvantages of riding outdoors: no rain or cold. Furthermore, through the 3D maps you will be riding on routes you would never go on otherwise.

The software is simple to operate, switching very quickly between the various on-screen options.

You determine your favourite training setting yourself.
