[b] Can anyone direct me to where I might be able to buy a new right-hand shifter for my watt bike atom. - thanks

I have tried contacting watt bike 3 times over the past 2 weeks with no joy, shifters are not listed under spares on their web site. [/b]


I agreed on the sale of the Atom to a local couple, but when we tried to use it with zwift discovered the switches on the right-hand shifter (which can be used to up and down the gears) don't work (I normally change gears from the screen so never noticed, otherwise it's perfect.

Needless to say, we mutually agreed the sale shouldn't go through.

The shifters are only 3 microswitches and a blue tooth transmitter but it refuses to pair - bit of googling suggests this could be a common problem.


I originally agreed on a sales price of £1,400 (very low usage) but as is the best offer is £995, hence my keenness to get a new one fitted.

Have you seen this?

You probably have but I’d feel bad if you lost out on £400 because the buyers are aware and you’re not.

Yes, seen that and tried it several times, the left pairs but no the right. The microswitch on the right no longer has the same action as the one on the left, so it could be physical damage. Could have been like that ages (I didn't use the shifter).

Thought you might have.

What a nuisance!
