The Cycling Tech Brief: the cycling tech that actually matters today — and whether to update, wait, or ignore.
- Wahoo KICKR V6 Firmware 5.6.13 Causing Widespread Bluetooth & Direct Connect Dropouts in Zwift — If you're on KICKR V6 and experiencing mid-ride drops, update your Wahoo app, check whether a newer firmware is now available, and file a support ticket with Wahoo — the more tickets they receive, the faster a patch ships.
- Strava's Year in Sport Is Subscription-Only — And the Backlash Is Still Simmering in 2026 — Monitor — weigh whether the full subscription feature set (route builder, leaderboards, Year in Sport) justifies the annual cost for your training needs before committing.
- Favero Assioma PRO Firmware 7.11 Doubles Battery Life — Version 7.32 'Smart Travel Mode' Unverified — Monitor — the v7.11 battery improvement is real and confirmed; hold on the v7.32 Smart Travel Mode claim until Favero publishes official release notes.
