Grade or Tilt Troubleshooting [KICKR BIKE]

Check Lock Button

For issues with grade or tilt simulation, first check the mode set on KICKR BIKE:

  • In locked mode, KICKR BIKE only responds to manual adjustments from the handle bars
  • Unlocked mode is required to enable automatic grade changes via software

Toggle between modes by quickly and lightly pressing the gray rectangular button on the right side of the display

Using Zwift?

  • Be sure to check the trainer difficulty setting - 0% provides no grade.
  • Zwift’s default setting is 50%. Full range of motion requires the slider to be set to 100%. For more details, please see Zwift's Using the “Trainer Difficulty” Setting in Zwift article, and note that KICKR BIKE's tilt functions identically to KICKR CLIMB..
  • Also be aware that KICKR BIKE will not react to grade changes while in workout/ERG mode in Zwift.
