What's not to love???
If you're an avid cyclist and remember the good old days of ROLLERS, then keep reading. I always thought rollers were a great workout but as I've aged (now 53), stability and the 'fear' of falling has come into play. With all the computerized $1000+ trainers out there, thank God there are still some grass roots solid options for those that don't want to break the bank. This trainer is, well, AWESOME!! It comes fully assembled, takes a minute to setup, and folds neatly into it's own carrying case. It is extremely light compared to the multitude of mag and fluid trainers out there and is WHISPER quiet. Ahhhh! Get ready to sweat because the harder you push, the more your quads will burn! It looks cool too!

Yep, it's worth it.
I needed an indoor trainer. I don't like taking off my rear wheel and using a cassette ran trainer, I don't like magnetic trainers wearing my rear tire down, and I especially don't like falling off of rollers. SO....I purchased this. One word: Amazing. Feels like a resistant roller, secure up front with no possibility of falling off. Huge plus: you can pack it and take it with you. Worth the money.

Great Portable Trainer
Bought this trainer for use when travelling and I love it. Been staying in a hotel for the last three weeks and managed about 24hrs of training on the Omnium in that time. The trainer packs well in my check-in luggage and takes only a few minutes to assemble. It develops good progressive resistance and with a trainer tyre on the back wheel the noise level is very low indeed. I use it on Zwift with either a power meter or speed sensor. I regularly did extended sessions at 250-300w and sprinted at 600w at times.

Best purchase during the lockdown
This bike trainer has been a life saver during the quarantine, and the smoky summer we are having here in Northern California. My husband had shoulder surgery earlier this year, so we had already decided to buy a trainer and use it until he could get back out on the bike. Little did we know how handy and useful this little device would be. it's pricey for the small bits you get, but it's sturdy and easy to use. It's no problem switching bikes as each of us use it almost every day. The workout is incredibly harder than the real bike because there is no down hill to rest and the wind doesn't blow the sweat off you. I highly recommend this trainer for any bike lover. It keeps us in bike shape even when we can't get out and ride. No excuses!

GREAT travel trainer
Purchased this so I could travel with a trainer. Despite light weight and small cylinders, it provides an impressive amount of resistance. I've done sustained intervals at 275watts, and there is still room to go much harder. The only thing this trainer won't accomodate well is low RPM intervals (think below 60RPM).It's incredibly compact and takes less than 2 minutes to setup completely. No issues going through airport security or putting it in the plane's overhead bins.Very pleased with the purchase, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to travel easily.

Fantastic trainer
Fantastic. I'm used to a regular fluid trainer that's heavy and takes up space, requires adjustment of roller, etc. This sets up and can be put away in under 2min - great if you do a combo of indoor and outdoor riding. I hold fairly high watts (275) for decent intervals - 6-15min and has worked wonderfully. Little bit of play (0.5 inch) side to side in rear, but feels kind of nice, more natural being on a roller than fixed. This is your hands-down best option if: don't want or need a smart trainer; you take your trainer places sometimes (super light and has carrying case!); live in an apartment and/or don't leave your pain cave set up all the time; race and want something for warm-ups/cool-downs.

Nice Ride, Well Engineered
After two weeks of ownership I'm extremely pleased with this device. It is intelligently designed, simple to use and very effective for the indoor apartment riding I really need. I work in IT and sit at a computer all the time, but this let's me ride even on short winter days. I haven't traveled with it but the case is very nice and the weight easily manageable. Noise is minimal, there is vibration because of our floors; the more solid the surface the better. Looking forward to Spring cycling now that I can keep my weight down and strength up through Minnesota winters!Other folks have mentioned it is hard to mount - if you keep your CG in the center of the bike and over the front fork (mounted easily to the tripod portion of the trainer) as you mount and dismount you will have no issues. Also while riding it this trainer encourages a strong core, so beginner cyclists may need to take some time adapting to the trainer. Looking forward to seeing how many miles it can handle!

Great Portable Trainer
This trainer exceeded my expectations. I use it on alternate days when I cant ride outside because of inclement weather. The set up was easy. I did not realize you can adjust the height of the front stand using the screw bolts. The resistance levels allow you to pedal easy, medium or hard and will definitely make you sweat and burn calories.Just a personal preference, I use a small step stool to get on and off the bike. I live in an apartment so I added extra rubber matting to absorb any vibrating noise that might disturb my downstairs neighbor.

Muy buen rodillo.
La calidad y materiales, son excelentes.Es un rodillo un poco caro si consideramos que NO es un rodillo inteligente. Es mecánico, no electrónico.Pero por otro lado, tiene ventajas que no encuentras en otros rodillos: - Es portátil. Se pliega y se almacena en una maleta que viene incluída. Lo puedes llevar a cualquier lado, incluso a una competencia para calentamiento. - Puedes montar cualquier bicicleta, sin importar la rodada, si es de ruta o de montaña o el tipo de eje que use tu bicicleta. Incluye los accesorios requeridos para montar cualquier bicicleta. No requieres de adquirir accesorios adicionales para montar diferentes tipos de bicicletas. - Aún cuando es un rodillo de rulos, no tienes que preocuparte por mantener el equilibrio. No requieres de tiempo para aprender a usarlo, lo puedes comenzar a usar en cuanto lo recibes.Por otro lado, las desventajas que le encuentro son: - Precio. Hay opciones más económicas, pero ninguna cumplía todos mis requerimientos. Este rodillo cumple con todo y hace valer su costo. - Como cualquier otro rodillo de rulos, mecánico o magnético, es un poco ruidoso (no en exceso), sobretodo si lo usas con bicicleta de montaña. - Al igual que cualquier otro rodillo de este tipo, va desgastando la llanta. Es recomendable tener una refacción de llanta completa (rin, maza, casette y llanta lisa), para usar con el rodillo y evitar el desgaste de tu llanta.Muy recomendable.

Sehr sehr leise, auch bei hohen Intensitäten - keine Geräuschprobleme mit Nachbarn. Sehr klein u. einfach zusammenfaltbar. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Portable and provides vg resistance
Very good little system. Depend on your bike you may need a special wheel to reduce the noise from the drums. I managed to get one for a couple hundred and it works great.

レースのアップに最適
レース会場のアップでは定番のローラー。小型軽量で持ち運びに便利。練習用としては負荷の変わり具合が自然ではないので、練習用はフライホイール付きのローラーをお勧めする。回転速度で負荷が変わるタイプは、ギアを一つ上げると実走行のギア1枚分より負荷が大きくなるようだ。また、実走行を模したフライホイールの慣性が無いので実走行よりきつく感じる。例えるなら、向かい風の走行感覚。

作りはしっかりしてます。
ミノウラのと比較して作りのしっかりとした、こちらを購入しました。多少コストは高くなりますが、剛性の高い方が騒音も少ないだろうとの判断です。 結果は、アルインコのマットだけで床への騒音はほぼなく充分です。負荷も自動なので、適度な負荷がかかった状態のトレーニングが可能です。コンパクトになるので、片付け場所に困らないのもいいですね。
