Kurt Kinetic Pro Flywheel affect on power

I bought a used Kurt Kinetic fluid and it came with a pro flywheel.  I didn't know how/if that would affect my WKOs during the NOS so I left it off.

Now that I'm starting my 20 weeks IM training, is there a benefit to adding the extra 10lbs flywheel to the trainer?  

I probably will stay on the trainer a little longer due to personal/family situation and start riding outside in a couple of months.

  • IMO, it's an wash, your preference.

    With the extra weight, more road like conditions with steady application of power. But, kinda gets in the way of our shorter VO2 sets cuz you wanna get up to power goals real quick and the extra weight will slow this rise to goal power down. I think that's the only difference that will really affect how EN does it.
  • Good to know. Thanks Chris!
