The KICKR CORE Zwift One may now be the most popular smart trainer in the world, thanks to its competitive price point as a standalone product and being sold as the default trainer with the Zwift Ride smart frame.

Because of its low price ($599/£549/€599), we rarely see Wahoo or Zwift offering discounts on the trainer. But today, both companies began offering the KICKR CORE Zwift One trainer at strong discounts in various markets. Shopping links below (these are affiliate links – shopping through them helps support Zwift Insider):

Zwift US: $65 Off
Zwift UK: £90 Off
Zwift EU: €100 off
Wahoo*

Note: Oddly enough, Wahoo doesn’t pay affiliates like Zwift Insider a bonus on sales of the KICKR CORE Zwift One. But we’ve included the link above since Wahoo ships to countries outside of Zwift’s US/UK/EU markets! Wahoo’s pricing matches Zwift’s within Zwift’s three markets (US/UK/EU), but outside of those markets, discounts vary from country to country. For example, Canada, Australia, and Japan are not discounted currently, while Nordic countries like Sweden and Norway are receiving a 20% discount.

About the Orange Zwift Cog

Zwift Cog v2 and Zwift Click

The KICKR CORE Zwift One ships with the Zwift Cog installed in place of a standard cassette. The Zwift Cog is made for trainers using Zwift’s virtual shifting, and is simply a single sprocket surrounded by a housing. (You only need one sprocket since virtual shifting changes the trainer’s resistance to mimic a gear shift, instead of changing a physical sprocket on a cassette.)

All About Virtual Shifting in Zwift >

The included Cog is the orange “version 2,” which is adjustable and quieter than earlier versions. This Zwift Cog easily adjusts left to right between 10 different sprocket positions for the straightest chainline, and rubber rings and other changes to the housing make it noticeably quieter than previous Zwift Cog versions.
