so you actually use these rollers (in the initial post)? are you happy with the purchase?
so with these things, could you do something like this: prop up the front end of the rollers to get a simulated incline (say 10 deg.s?) and then stand out of the saddle, shifting a lot of your weight forward over your bars (holding the hoods on your road bike) and sway the bike under you as you might when you got a long, very steep climb and have to stand with the gearing you got.
i am a very smooth rider, but i find that any major wt. shifts forward on standard rollers, even real gentle ones, will make your front wheel jump over (or behind) the front roller due to the way regular rollers distribute your wt.
so what exactly do you find the purpose is of the fore-aft motion of these things? would it work equally well without it, but with all the other accessories he adds?
any other comments about how well or poorly they work?
thanks!
Where would you want to swim ?
