Do I keep using my Vector Power Meter and my race bike on a dumb trainer, or do I buy smart trainer and use my beater bike?
Saving the power meter and race bike for racing.

What does ST think?

Get a cheap Powertap 2nd hand on eBay. Put the Powertap on your beater bike and use it on a dumb trainer.

also be aware of potential frame damage due to some stresses (when riding on trainer) don't exist on the road (so the frame is not intended to sustain it). Better to ask manufacturer before

I wish Snopes would do a story on this, because frame damage from trainers is like Bigfoot, lots of talk, not much actual proof.
