Types of Wattbike MonitorsUpdated 14 days 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
