This is a reduced shroud replacement for the Xplova Nova S Smart bike trainer. This trainer has an excellent road feel and provides both ERG and SIM modes. Unfortunately, due to the flywheel/power resistance unit being fully enclosed in a plastic shroud, heat builds up quickly. Consequently it suffers from thermal drift which results in power readings becoming less accurate as the unit is used through a workout session. Removing this shroud allows for effective cooling (for example the Wahoo Kickr units aren't shrouded), but then the control board exposed when the shroud is removed.
This STL model provides a small cover to protect the PCB while still allowing maximum airflow around the unit. Will post adjusted power numbers with this new reduced shroud and the old shroud for comparison.
