I'm looking for an upgrade and believe I'm on the circulation list............just saying

Though, of course, if postage were an issue I'd be delighted with pedals..........again, just throwing it out there........

oh you could still give it away

or the pedals

Ignore all the sob stories being posted below. It's all #fakenews

I'm looking to upgrade from my lousy old mag trainer so I can participate in ST group rides on Zwift. And I'm signed up on the circ drive. Also just sayin'!

Thats my boat too. I have been wanting to get a smart trainer so that I could train with zwift, but after purchasing a bike this fall I don't know when I could make a purchase. I have been using an early 2000 model magnetic trainer I bought at a garage sale for about 15 dollars the last couple of years. . .before that was a wind trainer from the same era!

EDIT: This is how I am riding these days. . .

Seems like the guys above are good candidates! I am looking to upgrade to power pedals but can't afford to. I have been riding triathalons on MTB pedals for years. I now have a tri bike, but can't spend $800 on pedals. I train exlusively indoors on power and having power during races would be huge for me!

Well on moving to Canada from AUS in FEB - I had to ditch my crappy old mag trainer as it was too heavy to ship and not worth while in the first place... Come winter I'll be sitting under the car port staring at snow on some kind of trainer but hopefully a smart one... at least I wont need to buy fans! (it'll be -25)

I'm looking for a new direct drive trainer :) All signed up too.

I’ve been trainer less for over a year now and could really use one.

Never ridden with power indoors or out and never had an indoor trainer. Would love to take my bike fitness to next level in 2019 by training thru the long cold upstate NY winter which I currently can't do - can't afford/wife won't allow me to buy fat bike! I figure a smart trainer would help with this endeavor. Thank you for your time. Circ drive, check!

I could use a new trainer. My Fluid2 sounds like it’s about to blow up.
Thanks

I'm signed up and conveniently looking for a new trainer so I can retire/donate my father's 15+ year old, rusty, CycleOps Fluid trainer.

I’ve recently moved to Phoenix, AZ to start a non-bike life career. The few roads to ride are flooded with some of the worst drivers in the country (I’ve already been hit once commuting home from work), and these days are peaking around 110 degrees, but it’s a ‘dry heat’ right? My co-workers tell me it still gets hotter for the next couple months.

This time of the year the only real way to ride, is on a trainer in the AC or by getting up at 4am and covering your bike in lights so you have a chance of not getting mowed down when ‘rush hour’ starts at 6.

Please and thank you for your consideration.

After two faulty Tacx Vortex units, I could use some consistency and lack of rolldown calibration in my indoor life, especially in long Midwest winters. I think the Hammer fits my needs as well.

Slowman,

My pain cave could sure use an upgrade, AND I'm signed up for the Circ drive. So, if you are looking for someone to send it to...........

Jim

I don't have a trainer, but would love to have one!

I've been eyeing a direct drive trainer for a while now as a replacement to my Tacx Vortex. I would love to gift my Vortex to a newcomer to the triathlon scene here in Calgary.

I definitely would use the trainer to join the 21st century! I've been using the same fluid trainer for the past 10+ years, and just can't stand riding indoors anymore. Perhaps joining the virtual training world would help reignite my waning desire to train...
Cheers,
John

I'm signed up for the circ drive and would love to upgrade from my $20 Craig's list mag trainer, but the wife would kill me if I bought one today.

I thought the circ drive was a random drawing of those who signed up, but since everybody is begging, er, stating their case....PLEASE PLEASE pick me, my tri bike is 650c and the road bike is 700c and having to adjust the rear resistance drum unit and the front wheel leveling block every time I change bikes is a total PITA!

My wife and kids were sure appreciate something a bit quieter during the pre-dawn trainer sessions, which are making up the bulk of my training time right now.

A 3 year & 5 month old mean I’ll be confined to base for a looong while yet....
Currently on a 12 yr old flow that is slowly rusting away.
I’ll pay the postage!

As a newcomer to this sport, I have already spent all my money on bike, shoes and swim gear. It would be great to have a trainer to give me more opportunities to train and keep this graph going down :)

If you want to pass it on down the line, I know a guy that is starting to bike indoors a lot more due to a newborn. Help a babysitter out ;)

Please.

Don't send me one, unless you want a critical review showing its faults as well as its graces. I'll also show why quoted max slope is a buncha hooey for all trainers and compare the sensations of riding particular climbs IRL and indoors. Might not be the good story everyone wants to hear.
