Kicker vibrations

Bicycles Asked on June 30, 2021

I have some kind of vibration while using my kickr, I have a feeling something is not aligned correctly, at a certain point in the rotation I feel a vibration.

Have changed

Cassette
bottom bracket
Jockey Wheels

Swapped large chainring for another old one.

I’m now wondering if I should buy whole new cranks with chainring included or start with a new chaining.

I guess I asking for opinions because its getting expensive replacing parts.

Thanks.

Wahoo have had a number of problems surrounding belt tension and bearings which lead to vibration and rumbling on both the Kickr and Kickr Core. Some detective work with google will dig up many people with vibration issues. There is a good article about some of the issues here: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/01/wahoo-ceo-details-fixes-for-issues-surrounding-kickr-2018-kickr-core.html

My experience with Wahoo support was excellent - I sent them a short video clip of my 2yr old Kickr Core making a rumbling noise and they replaced with a refurbished unit which has been trouble free so far.

EDIT: I should note that at some combinations of cadence/power there can be some expected modest vibration - picking a different gear usually resolves it.
