Is Wahoo worth buying?
Wahoo earned a buy verdict on 3 of the 7 Wahoo products we compared (43%), below the 50% average across every brand on the site. 1 of them won its comparison outright: Wahoo KICKR CORE 2 with Zwift Cog and Click. 1 is an "it depends": right for a specific buyer, not for everyone. We would skip 3: Wahoo TRACKR RADAR, Wahoo ELEMNT ACE and Wahoo TICKR FIT.
Verdicts synthesize independent testing and long-term owner reports; we do not run a lab and never take review units. Each product below links to the comparison it was judged in. How we review.

The Best Bike Radars: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Cycling
Wahoo TRACKR RADAR
Priced close to Garmin's flagship but dimmer, shorter-ranged, and unable to show radar alerts on a phone.
Why we skip it: Wahoo's support page says the app is used only for firmware and light modes, and an ANT+ radar-compatible computer is required for normal use.

Wahoo ELEMNT ACE
A big, pricey flagship whose headline wind sensor doesn't earn its size for most riders.
Why we skip it: At a stated 208g and 126 x 71mm it is the biggest and heaviest unit here, and it dominates a small cockpit
