- Training with Non Interactive Smart Trainer
  
  By GryMlock · Posted Tuesday at 11:25 AM
  
  Hi I have the Elite Turbo Muin Smart B+ turbo trainer. It doesn't have resistance control and not interactive. It has power and cadence reading. How can I best train with this type of trainer? at the moment I have difficulties to match which gears with what cadence and power output should I need to aim.. Any tips/guide is deeply appreciated. thanks

  Avoid those cheap full suspension bikes for sure. Check out house brand bikes of the big retailers like Vitus, Pinnacle, Radon etc. These are usually pretty good value.
- Shimano MTB calipers with hydraulic STI levers?
  
  By tomppa · Posted Saturday at 01:42 PM
  
  Here is the official answer: https://productinfo.shimano.com/#/com/?acid=C-499&cid=C-453 BR-RS785 is the only officially compatible post mount caliper. I've seen some claims that it is just a renamed XT M785 caliper and as such should be entirely compatible with any other mtb caliper, but I don't know if that's true. I'm thinking about getting the Tiagra or GRX RX400 hydraulic STIs and maybe Deore calipers myself, but I'll wait a bit and see what combinations other people will try first.
