Types of Wattbike MonitorsUpdated 3 hours ago

 

There are several monitors and when it comes to repairs or upgrades, it is important to know which type you have. The following guide will help:

 

Wattbike Performance Monitors - Pro/Trainer

 

Model A (discontinued):

  • GIANT WATTBIKE FIRST GENERATION: 2012 - 2013 - the first Wattbike had a Model A Monitor which is no longer available. 
  • The connection type for the Model A Monitor is an ethernet cable type, also known as an RJ45 cable.
  • The A monitor takes a different charger which is no longer available to purchase. 
  • Model A monitors are no longer serviced/repaired due to their age and having no spare parts available. We no longer offer trade-in for this type of monitor. 

 

Model B:

There are 3 types of connectors a Model B monitor may have:

  • Screw fit connection B1 - bike serial numbers 22008260 onwards for Pro & 22008317 onwards for Trainer
  • Screw fit connection B2 - bike serial numbers 22012154 onwards
  • Push fit connection B3 - bike serial number 22017492 onwards for Pro and 22017545 onwards for Trainer
  • The Model B Serial Number is 8 digits long and starts 250xxxxx

  • WATTBIKE SECOND GENERATION: 2013 - 2014: Serial numbers 22008260 onwards for Pro & Serial numbers 22008317 onwards for Trainer.
  • Screw fit connection (B1 & B2) are the original Model B monitors and they have a different connector.
  • Screw fit connection B1 - bike serial numbers 22008260 onwards for Pro & 22008317 onwards for Trainer.
  • Screw fit connection B2 - bike serial numbers 22012154 onwards.
  • If the input socket is damaged, this will require an upgrade of the data cable and monitor to a B3 push fit connector.
  • A B1 data cable will fit a B2 monitor but a B2 data cable will not fit a B1 monitor. This is because the number of pins are different: B1 has a single notch screw fit connection between the monitor and data cable. B2 has a 5 notch connection between the monitor and data cable.

 

Push Fit
