The Turno is a "Direct Drive" "Fluid" trainer, the resistance changes concerning the speed variation, and it has included a speed sensor ( Misuro B+ ).
This is a graph of powers created by the Turno in relation to the speed of pedaling: Turno power graph
A specific explanation of how a fluid trainer works can be found at this link ( Fluid trainer )
The internal trainer board transmits wirelessly using ANT + and/or Bluetooth Smart protocols the values of:
- Measured speed
- Calculated cadence
- Calculated power
Any app/software/device ( such as a cycle-computer ) which uses ANT+ and/or Bluetooth Smart protocols may receive the data listed above without altering the resistance.

Note: The circumference value in the external device NOT ELITE must be set as: wheel circumference / 15.34
Example: wheel circumference 2095mm, set in external device 2095 / 15.34 = 137 mm
