Direto XR-T
Direto XR-T is Elite's top of the range home trainer without sprocket cassette. Super-accurate, compatible with a wide range of bicycle models.
The OTS integrated power meter ensures +/-1.5% accuracy, which is one of Direto XR-T's strong suits, placing it atop Elite's home trainers' range with the most realistic gradient simulation, up to 24%.
Integrated power meter to measure power output with accuracy
What makes the Direto XR and Direto XR-T the most accurate among Elite's home trainer range is the OTS (Optical Torque Sensor) integrated power meter.
The power meter makes it possible to effectively measure power output on your workouts with +/-1,5% accuracy, one of the highest among commercially available home trainers.
Simulating the highest gradients
The Direto XR-T is an interactive home trainer, so it automatically adjusts resistance while you're working out.
Compared to previous Direto models, the Direto XR-T features a bigger flywheel and simulates gradients up to an astounding 24%.
This 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.
Use it with all indoor cycling software platforms
The Direto XR-T is totally interactive and communicates with all software platforms via ANT+™ FE-C and Bluetooth, just like all of Elite's direct transmission home trainers.
Set your course or training programs with a few clicks and start pedaling right away. Direto XR-T will automatically adjust resistance and manage your training session.
Direto XR-T 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-T is compatible with the Rizer gradient simulator with steering.
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 and Tuo.
Contact us to verify the Rizer’s compatibility with other brands.

Pedalling Analysis
The Pedalling analysis is available on top of the range Elite interactive home trainers, including the Direto XR-T.
This function will help you analyze your power output throughout the whole pedaling movement via a 24 points-system scale.
You can display with this function the value of immediate power output throughout the pedaling movement and, by doing so, evaluate mechanical efficiency of your movement so you can adjust and correct where necessary.
The pedaling analysis function is available for purchase in Elite's My E-Training software.
Cadence, Speed and Power Data
All Elite trainers rely on immediate transmission of power, speed and pedal cadence data in order to let you achieve the most specific and accurate training plan.
To measure cadence, our trainers make use of practical sensorless technology capable of detecting the pedaling rate without having to install sensors on the bike frame.
Trainers like Direto XR-T measures cadence via power analysis by means of their innovative in-built power meter OTS.
