At Escapa, we know how important it is to train year-round, which is why we’re introducing the Elite Rivo Trainer , which comes with a 12-speed cassette so you don’t have to worry about buying one separately. Designed to deliver premium performance in a compact and accessible format, the Rivo is perfect for those new to indoor cycling who are looking for a realistic, simple, and high-performance experience from day one.
The Rivo is a smart trainer that has it all when it comes to precision and connectivity: it’s quiet and connects to the most popular cycling training apps via Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi, and Zwift BLE Protocol, with automatic resistance control on climbs of up to 18%.
Rivo is lightweight, compact, and easy to transport and store, with folding legs and a built-in handle to simplify every move. To get you started right away, we’ve included a 12-speed cassette in the Escapa package, and you’ll also get 12 months of free access to Elite’s My E-Training app, so you can make the most of every workout and train like a pro.
Advanced tools within everyone’s reach.
Rivo is Elite’s smart trainer that brings high-end features to your indoor training in a streamlined, accessible format for cyclists of all levels.
Its premium features include power accuracy of ±2.5%, resistance control worthy of a WorldTour champion with gradients of up to 18%, and Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi connectivity—the latter with automatic firmware update detection. Rivo is an interactive, precise, and quiet trainer: the perfect tool for every important training session.
Designed to keep up with you.
Lightweight and designed to move with you, Rivo builds on the proven design of the iconic Suito, offering a slimmer, lighter, and more compact version. Installing it on your bike is quick and easy, allowing you to create your ideal setup right from the start.
Designed to be intuitive for anyone, even those new to indoor cycling. The legs are lightweight and fold easily, taking up less space when storing or transporting the trainer. Every element is designed to simplify your life, because a good workout begins even before you get on the bike.
Maximum connectivity with built-in Wi-Fi
Thanks to Wi-Fi connectivity integrated with the Bluetooth® protocol, Rivo connects to your home network for faster and more stable data transmission. This connection further enhances the trainer’s responsiveness, even during the most intense phases of races in training apps.
Wi-Fi is compatible with 2.4 GHz networks and allows the trainer to automatically detect and install firmware updates. Setup is required only once, following this guide. From then on, the system will automatically check for new firmware updates, without the need for manual intervention.
Supertuck
Rivo is designed to support you through every phase of your workout with precision and consistency. The Easy Start feature helps you resume intervals after a break in pedaling, without jerks or power drops: a smooth return to your previous effort.
With the Supertuck feature, the trainer instantly reduces the power reading as soon as you stop pedaling. This allows Zwift to immediately detect the lack of force and automatically activate your avatar’s aerodynamic position.
Dual-channel Bluetooth® and Bridge functionality for heart rate monitors and cadence sensors.
Rivo features dual-channel Bluetooth®, allowing you to connect two Bluetooth® devices simultaneously—such as a bike computer while connected to the training app.
Thanks to its Bridge feature, you can connect a heart rate monitor or cadence sensor to the trainer and send the data to the app via a single FTMS BLE connection.
Train Anywhere
Rivo offers two standalone modes that let you train anywhere, even without a connection to the app or a power source. If it’s plugged in but not connected to the software, you can preset a gradient of up to +18% using the My E-Training app, and it will maintain that setting offline.
If it’s not connected to the power source or the electrical outlet, you can use the app beforehand to select one of the 16 resistance levels—ideal for training outdoors.
Get the most out of indoor technology
It automatically adjusts resistance to simulate gradients of up to 18%, making every climb feel realistic. You can pair it with Rizer, Elite’s gradient simulator with integrated steering that moves your bike up and down to give you the full indoor cycling experience.
Complete your setup with Aria, the smart fan that adjusts airflow intensity based on your workout data, for a more immersive and authentic riding experience.
Compatible with all bikes and apps
Rivo is compatible with all bikes and Shimano®/SRAM 9/10/11-speed cassettes, Shimano® 12-speed road cassettes, SRAM SX 12-speed cassettes, and SRAM NX 12-speed cassettes. At Escapa, we’ve included a 12-speed cassette
