Tacx Boost Magnetic Wheel-On Bicycle Trainer
010-02419-01
A simple, no-power-needed wheel-on trainer for riders who want dependable resistance at the handlebar, without any electronics to set up or pair.
Overview
Boost is Tacx's straightforward entry-level trainer, built around a forceful magnetic brake rather than a motor or electronics. There's genuinely nothing to plug in or pair — mount your bike, pick a resistance level, and ride.
What's actually equipped: 2x8 permanent ferrite magnets drive the resistance unit, controlled through a 10-position lever on your handlebar. A real 1.6kg flywheel keeps the pedal stroke smooth, and the closed resistance unit design keeps things notably quiet for a magnetic trainer. The multifunctional front wheel support doubles as a carry handle and sets a natural riding position.
It's built for riders who want a genuinely simple, dependable trainer for general fitness riding, interval work, or steady sessions, without needing an app, a power outlet, or anything to configure before you ride.
Why You'll Like It
No Power Required
The magnetic brake needs no mains connection, so you can set up and ride anywhere without hunting for an outlet.
Real Resistance Control
Ten resistance levels, adjustable via a handlebar lever, cover everything from easy spinning to intense interval sprints up to 1,050W.
Genuinely Quiet
The closed resistance unit design keeps noise down noticeably compared to an open magnetic brake.
Set Up in Two Clicks
Mounting the bike takes two simple clicks — no thru-axles, adapters, or complicated setup.
Compact and Portable
A small footprint and foldable design make it easy to store away or move between rooms.
Who Is It For?
Riders in India who want a simple, dependable trainer for general fitness and interval training, without the cost or complexity of a smart, app-connected system. It suits anyone who wants real resistance control at the handlebar rather than managing everything through a phone or tablet.
It also works well as a genuinely portable option — no power cable to manage — for a household that wants to move the trainer between rooms or take it somewhere else entirely.
Good to Know
Add a speed sensor (sold separately) if you want to track distance and pace, or ride with apps like Zwift using virtual power.
The trainer accepts most road and mountain bikes with a quick-release skewer; adapters for other axle widths are available separately.
