One of the quietest roller trainers on the market thanks to direct drive
Just like the Suito, Elite's currently strongest interactive roller trainer also has a very practical plug & play configuration, designed to have a really simple and direct indoor cycling experience from the first use.
It is very stable and can be quickly folded up, stowed away to save space and, thanks to the integrated handle, easily transported when not in use.
The DIRETO XR-T is already completely pre-assembled. You only have to install a cassette (optionally available) and the bike and connect the device to a power source to start training. This takes less than five minutes. Thanks to the direct drive, the DIRETO XR-T is also one of the quietest roller trainers on the market.
With power meter
The accuracy of the data from the DIRETO XR-T during training is guaranteed by the OTS (Optical Torque Sensor). This sensor is an innovative built-in power meter that allows the trainer to measure the power range with an accuracy of +/- 1.5%, 0.5 percentage points more than the +/- 2% measured by the Direto.
After the Drivo II and the Direto / Direto X, the DIRETO XR-T is the only roller trainer in the world that actually measures the performance achieved during training using a built-in power meter.
An incredible slope simulation
The DIRETO XR-T is an interactive roller and therefore automatically varies the resistance. It is able to simulate inclines of up to 24%, with an output of 2300 watts being developed at a speed of 40 km / h, 10% more than the Direto could and 6% more than the Direto X.
Thanks to an unparalleled performance, it is able to guarantee excellent results even during the most intense training sessions, you can follow all your training tables, run tests to assess your fitness and do repetitions and sprints at top speed and top performance. Any type of training that comes to mind can be put into action thanks to the DIRETO XR.
Highly compatible
Because if the Direto was already able to guarantee maximum compatibility with both racing bikes and mountain bikes, the DIRETO XR-T can also do this thanks to its new housing. It is easily possible to include rear derailleurs with a long cage, up to a pinion cassette with 12 gears with the largest possible gear ratio.
For this reason, the DIRETO XR-T is compatible with Shimano® / SRAM 9/10/11 speed, Campagnolo 9/10/11/12 speed, SRAM NX 12 speed and Shimano® 12 speed Micro Spline cassettes.
Interactivity
The DIRETO XR-T belongs to the new generation of interactive roller trainers ANT + ™ FE-C & Bluetooth, which interact with apps, software, computers and peripheral devices (smartphones and tablets) of all types with IOS, Android, OSX and Windows.
With a few simple steps, training routes or programs can be set and you can start. DIRETO XR varies the resistance automatically and thus allows optimal training. DIRETO XR-T can be controlled with the software My E-Training (available free of charge for 12 months) or other platforms for indoor cycling, including: Zwift, TrainerRoad, The Sufferfest, Bikevo, Kinomap and many others.
Kick analysis
The step analysis is an innovative function that analyzes the power generated by the cyclist during the entire duration of the step training at 24 points.
This enables the display of the data measured by DIRETO XR-T, such as the value of the current performance developed during the entire step training, using two different diagrams. These data enable the cyclist to fully assess the mechanical efficiency of his activity, so that he can possibly intervene to improve and correct himself where necessary. The step analysis function is available for a fee in the My E-Training software from Elite.
Sensorless technology
All Elite trainers transmit current performance data, speed and cadence, which is why they can be configured as highly effective instruments to create a precise training plan and reproduce cycling on the road.
The cadence measurement takes place via a practical sensorless technology without having to attach sensors to the bike and is based on a sophisticated analysis of the power measured by the integrated OTS power meter.
The role of the best WorldTour teams
The contribution of Elite's teams to the realization of their products is essential. Nobody knows better than they what the most important aspects of a really effective indoor training program are. That's why Elite is in constant contact with the best sports directors and athletes in the cycling world. The goal: to create high-performance products for the greatest champions. And the DIRETO XR is no exception.
This powerful, attractive and highly advanced trainer is the non-plus-ultra of roller trainers for indoor training.
