Tacx Vortex Smart Trainer

The vortex is an interactive smart trainer with an electro brake. This resistance unit is suitable for an average training level and can reach a maximum resistance of 950 watt. Instead of using a handlebar computer you train by connecting the vortex quickly and easily to the tacx apps or third party software. Of the many possible training options, you can choose the software that best matches you and your way of training.

The vortex communicates wirelessly via Ant+ and bluetooth^® smart for convenient training sessions using your smartphone or tablet. performance data can be viewed on several devices simultaneously, including your smartphone, bike computer and sports watch. 

when the vortex smart isn’t connected to a smartphone, tablet or computer, it behaves as a fluid trainer. This means the trainer behaves progressively: when your speed increases, the resistance increases as well. So it is possible to use this trainer in a “stand-alone” status.

Speed, Power & Cadence

All Tacx smart trainers measure speed, power and cadence accurately without the need for external sensors. However, when an external sensor is preferred it can be used and connected easily.

Smart Trainer

The Vortex Smart pairs seamlessly with most popular training apps and software to create the ultimate indoor training environment. Easily connect to cycling apps like Zwift, Tacx and Trainerroad.
