Tacx Neo 2
Hello, my Tacx Neo 2 bit the dust yesterday (no power, no resistance when pedaled but fan works) Just wondering how long has your Neo 2 lasted mine was 4.5 years old. I'm asking because I'm reading people have had this problem in much less period of time. Any input on Tacx Neo 2 vs: Wahoo Kickr V5 would be appreciated as one of these will replace my unit. BTW i have been very pleased with the Neo 2 (up to yesterday lol).

No input on Tacx specifically, but you want to be talking hours of use, not age when comparing to other's experience. If the thing just sat in the basement most of the time, then 4 years is lousy. If it was ridden 20 hours a week for 5 months of the year, then maybe it held up pretty well.
I feel like it held up well but researching a replacement I saw that many people only got months of use. Not years. (then again I can't believe everyone that purchases these trainers have that amount of difficulty.
