The Hood Mounts for Zwift Play are part of a more eco-friendly dedicated trainer bike setup. The mounts are 3D printed out of bio plastic and produced on-demand, so there’s no overproduction and less waste. And by reusing an old frame or old bike parts for your trainer bike, you minimize your impact on the environment compared to buying a new dedicated indoor trainer bike.
Our Setup:
In our home, we’ve held onto several old bike frames that were damaged in crashes. And from upgrading components over the years, we’ve accumulated a handful of old chain rings, derailleurs, and other parts. We used these old bike components to create a trainer bike perfect for riding indoors that otherwise wouldn’t be roadworthy.
Use your best judgment. Foothill Products is not responsible for damage or injury caused by using old or damaged bicycle components.
