Elite Direto XR

The Elite Direto XR is the home trainer you were looking for your indoor training this season. This trainer is the biggest evolution of the Elite Direto trainers featuring an integrated power meter.

Ideal for reaching the highest level of performance and working out in a totally immersive home training experience.

Plug & Play, comes with 11sp cassette

Just like Suito, the Direto XR trainer will help you work out on your bike in the easiest and quickest fashion since the first unboxing. Plug & Play and very stable, Direto XR folds quickly for storage when not in use and features a practical integrated handle that makes it easier to carry it with you.

Our most powerful trainer this year includes a pre-installed 11-speed Shimano® 11-28 or equivalent cassette that will help you train in a few easy steps. As you don't need to assemble the sprocket cassette or the base legs, youìll just need to place your bike on the hometrainer and connect it to a power source. Total setup time: less than five minutes.

In addition to that, the Direto XR is a direct-drive home trainer meaning that it is one of the quietest home trainer on the market.

Integrated power meter

The OTS (Optical Torque Sensor) ensures Direto XR the greatest data accuracy while you’re training. This is an innovative integrated power meter for the hometrainer to measure power output with a ± 1,5% accuracy, 0.5 % more to the original Direto trainer.

The Elite Direto XR is the only hometrainer in the world with the original Drivo, Drivo II, Direto and Direto x trainers to actually measure your power output via an integrated power meter. That's why it sets itself apart as one of the most accurate hometrainers on the market.

Incredible slope simulation

The Direto XR is an interactive home trainer so it varies automatically resistance during your training. With an upgraded and bigger flywheel, the Direto XR is able to simulate up to an incredible 24% slope gradient – 10% more than what the original Direto could do and 6% more than the Direto X.

This unprecedented power level ensures excellent performances even during particularly intense training sessions - you'll be able the check out all your training charts at a glance, conduct tests to evaluate your fitness level, do reps and high-speed sprints at max power. Any type of training you want is available to you riding on the Direto XR.

Total Interactivity

Direto XR is counted among the new generation of ANT ™ FE-C & Bluetooth interactive home trainers that are compatible with any kind of app, software, computer and device (smartphones and tablets) that support iOS, Android, OSX and Windows. Set your course or training programs with a few clicks and start pedaling right away. Direto XR will automatically adjust resistance and manage your training session.

Direto XR can be managed via the My E-Training software & app (12-month free subscription included) or other indoor cycling services, such as: Zwift, TrainerRoad, The Sufferfest, Bkool, Kinomap and many more.

It works with the Elite Rizer

Direto XR is compatible with the Rizer gradient simulator with steering (COMING SOON).

The Rizer simulates ascents up to 20% and descents down to -10% gradients by pairing with virtual training software to automatically match the virtual gradient on screen. For more realistic rides, the Rizer features steering functionality so you can freely move your handlebars when you’re smashing those climbs.

Other Elite trainers compatible with the Rizer are Suito, Suito-T, Direto XR-T and Tuo. to verify the Rizer’s compatibility with other brands.
