The Adidas C1 indoor bike now has a more specific QZ setup path. Public master includes the merged PR #4506 as commit f5dd5d16, adding Adidas C1 handling for Bluetooth names like ADIDAS0017. A later public master commit also broadens the Adidas-name detection branch so these bikes are not missed by a space-sensitive prefix check.
In the support confirmation used for this article, the Adidas C1 owner reported that QZ was working again on the TestFlight build. Earlier in the same support context, QZ was reported to work perfectly and the bike responded to resistance changes. Because the final confirmation refers to TestFlight, treat App Store availability carefully: use a QZ build that includes the merged Adidas C1 changes.

Compatibility summary
| Device | Adidas C1 indoor bike |
| QZ evidence | Merged public PR #4506, public master commits f5dd5d16 and e8a73230, plus a real-world TestFlight confirmation |
| Bluetooth detection | Adidas-numbered names such as ADIDAS0017 |
| Connection path | QZ’s dedicated Adidas C1 / TRX app-gate USB bike branch, rather than forcing the generic FTMS Bike setting |
| Metrics/control evidenced | Bike connection and resistance response are confirmed; the code adds Adidas C1 resistance command handling |
| Zwift / virtual app use | QZ can bridge the bike through its normal virtual-bike workflows; confirm the exact metrics and control behavior in your chosen app |
| Current caution | The latest explicit confirmation was on TestFlight, so make sure your installed QZ build includes the merged Adidas C1 support |
Setup notes for Adidas C1
- Wake the bike and look for a Bluetooth name in the Adidas-numbered format, for example
ADIDAS0017. - Use a QZ build that includes the Adidas C1 support merged in PR #4506.
- Leave the generic FTMS Bike override disabled when you want QZ to use the automatic Adidas C1 detection path.
- After QZ connects, test resistance changes before starting a full ride in Zwift or another training app.
- If your installed release does not detect the bike yet, try the current TestFlight/beta path or wait for the production build that includes the merged code.
What QZ adds around the bike
QZ can act as the bridge between supported fitness equipment and training apps, exposing virtual-bike workflows and optional export/integration paths. Depending on device, platform and settings, QZ can work with ecosystems such as Zwift, MyWhoosh, ROUVY, Peloton-style virtual-bike use, Apple Health / HealthKit, Garmin Connect, Strava and Google Health / Health Connect.
