Decent 2nd trainer.
Quote | Reply
My wife and I occsionally want to ride indoors at the same time. I currently have a Cyclops2 that I've had for 2-3 years and like. However I don't see any resaon to spend that much on a trainer that won't be used often at all.

I'm looking for suggestions on cheap trainers. My wife is fairly recreational cyclist and would be using this trainer. So in essence it can be pretty much anything as long as it's stable and fairly easy to set up. Looking for cheap but user friendly I guess.

rollers? The skills one can learn on a set of these is priceless. And you can get a decent set for around $150.

Post a note on the classifieds for a used one. With all the new ones Tom D sold somebody may have one. I got a barely used cyclops mag trainer for about $50 earlier this year.

There's an idea. I was thinking I would like to get a set some day. How portable are they?

Some fold up nice, but all are pretty light. I use a Trax, but get the smaller rollers - it forces you to work harder.

Our Nashbar Mag is still going strong after 4 years of a decent amount of use. VERY user friendly, and pretty quiet.

1up. I think that's how it's spelled. Every time I've seen a thread re: trainers, that one comes highly reccommended. Don't have it myself. I have Kurt Kinetic. There's a sale on KK's on Tri-zone.com right now.
