Just ordered a Concept2!

Post by nwmushroom » November 16th, 2016, 3:48 pm

So the Concept2 Model D dropped to $900 with free shipping on Amazon, so I took the plunge and ordered.

A couple of questions:

How does multi-user work? I ordered a couple of thumb drives with the rower - is it a case of me simply plugging in my usb stick when rowing, and the wife plugging hers in when she rows?

I saw mention of an Android app. Can this be used instead of the usb thumb drives to track individual rowers?

Finally - the RowPro software. Worth getting?!

It dropped this morning and went back up to $945 in the late afternoon. You may want to set up a price tracker on camelcamelcamel (I won't post the link; new member, not sure of the rules - you can Google it).

Both approach, usb and app will work. The app will sync with your web log automatically. Go for the app IMHO.
I only use usb as for today while I'd need for a lot of programmed workout like for Pete Plan etc. I do, do you?

I own RowPro. I barely use it for online rowing once a month. Maybe less. Rowing online would be an amazing feature but is not a real option today, yet. You'll find a lot of info about on the forum. I was used to use RowProw for intervals, now superseed by the new release of C2 utility.
