Sturdy and effective August 25, 2010

This bike trainer is well made and has proved very worthwhile attached to my older mountain bike. When the instruction manual states that a knobby tire is not recommended it is not kidding. I didn't have a smooth tire initially and the noise and vibration was horrible. Using a cheap smooth tire made a huge difference and now the trainer is nice and quiet. I take off 1 star because of the bar-mounted resistance adjustment lever. I could not get it to work; the instructions were useless. The gears on the bike provide all the resistance variance I need so the extra lever was a waste of money. Get the model without the remote lever and save about $10.
perfect for my moutain bike June 12, 2010
Erica A. Fischer (NJ)
Great product- instructions were a little misleading. It said I needed to replace a piece of my bike with what they provided in order to attach the bike to the trainer.I Couldn't figure out how to do it so i took it took a bike shop and they said it couldn't be done, by my bike would hook it just fine as is-and it did!! Really love the product and get a great work out from it. I have a moutain bike and it works awesome.
great value, solid construction May 22, 2010
Carl Comeback (Signal Hill, CA)
Overall very pleased with purchase. Arrived quickly, easy to assemble. For the value, it's definately a great quality item. Solid construction and you don't need to be concerned about it sweaking or feeling unstable. It's every bit as sturdy as the high quality fitness machines you would find at a gym. And it's compact and doesn't take up any room.
My only problem (but I think this could be even more of a problem with other units), is that the feel is just not like pavement. The resistance feels differently than pavement because gravity is impossible to recreate. But I imagine that is the problem with all of these triners. Even the most expensive ones probably can't simulate the real thing. So this one is great quality, and gets the job done.
Pretty good trainer August 6, 2009

This is a pretty good trainer for the money it costs. It does make some noise, but its not unbearable: the TV is still audible.
It was somewhat difficult to set up: make sure your back tire is tight against the roller - if it is slipping at all it will wear down in no time.
Even so, it does seem to wear down my back tire pretty fast, so I am thinking of getting a wheel with a Continental tire made for trainers.
I got the model with the remote, but have not really used it. The remote is hard to set up (both on the magnet and on the bike), and it keeps falling off.
 No much resistence December 21, 2008
C. Menzel (Orange, CA)
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
It is very simple to put together and mounting your bike is even easier. This would be perfect for a person looking for a light workout, but it does not provide enough resistence for a serious bike rider. The tension adjustments are barely noticable. I should have opted for the more expensive, but more refined fluid trainer. Don't make the same mistake.
