Gradient simulator raises the bar on indoor cycling by replicating climbs and creating a fully immersive riding experience

OLATHE, Kan. (June 24, 2025) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Garmin (NYSE: GRMN) today announced Tacx^® Alpine, a gradient simulator that raises and lowers the front of a bike during an indoor ride to replicate climbs and provide more natural movement. Featuring an exclusive design that accommodates the motion of Tacx NEO 2T and 3M smart trainers, Tacx Alpine builds upon that powerful, immersive ride experience by mimicking grades from up to 25% and down to -10% and enabling steering¹ to create a more realistic ride for cyclists as they virtually explore and train indoors.

“We are excited to add the Tacx Alpine to our lineup of premium training tools to create an ultimate indoor cycling experience unlike any other. This new gradient simulator helps bring real elevation changes to life and complements the motion of our powerful NEO 2T and 3M smart trainers to add a whole new level of immersion and realism to any ride. And when riding life-like videos from some of the most beautiful routes and locations in the world through the Tacx Training^™ App, the full Tacx suite makes cyclists feel like they’re actually there.”

—Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing
