First affordable bicycle trainer.,
Customer Video Review Length:: 0:34 Mins
So after shopping for weeks to find a decent bicycle trainer and not wanting to spend over 200$ for one i read the few reviews that were available for this product and felt satisfied and thought id give it a try. I waited a while and saw that the price had come down to 73.99$ so thought id jump on it and give it a try. Upon receiving the item i did notice that it did feel quite heavy had a good weight to it and was fairly easy to assemble. Had to switch my rear axle/skewer so it fits the cups on the trainer a bit better. Bike fit in there perfect and snug, do not tighten the clamps too much as you will damage your bike. You only need to make the bike snug in there its not going anywhere and once your weight and roller are in place its very sturdy. The 4 black end caps on the legs of the trainer can be spun to make it level, it has little bumps that make one foot slightly higher or lower to make it flat and sturdy.
According to most videos and instructions ive read on other trainers you should make the roller just touch the tire then do a full turn to 1-1/2 turns for the correct tension. If you need more resistance you can turn it 2 full turns it will make it a lot harder to pedal and give more tension, anymore then that and its probably not good for the tire. I used my decibel meter app which i checked to be very accurate and decided to measure the trainer. A normal quiet room at night is 50db, normal conversation or watching something on tv is about 70+db depending on your tv. My home theater has measured 100db so quite loud. The trainer measured about 80-85 db if that gives people an idea of how loud/quiet that might seem to you. After reading reviews i thought i would have to raise my tv volume, i did not have to. Probably helps to get a smooth trainer made tire for your bicycle as they will last a lot longer and are a lot quieter then a lot of tires.
Reason to get a trainer tire. They are made of a stiffer rubber, they cool down a bit better and are thicker. The reason why a tire wears out quicker on a trainer is because its stationary and only moving along the roller in the same consistent spot. On the road the air and wind cool down the tire and so does the road as its not stationary.
Pros:
-Fairly quiet
-Smooth and sturdy
-Very affordable
-Adjustable roller tension
-Comes with riser block usually an extra 10-20$ for other trainers.
Cons:
-Resistance doesn’t seem like it does much on this particular trainer but it does work.
-The skewer doesnt seem to sit in the cups fairly well but thats minor deeper cups would probably help.
Overall a great trainer that i’ve used a few times. Its totally different then riding on the road as you can’t coast you must constantly pedal. Any questions or comments feel free to ask. Its a great trainer for beginners or anyone looking to stay fit when the weather doesn’t permit. Reason for the 4 star review is the resistance needs a bit of work. If that was changed this would be the budget trainer to buy.
UPDATE: I have added a video of the sound it makes. Was record with a regular Canon point and shoot and was probably a foot away from the trainer. It sounds a lot louder then it actually is but you can hear at the beginning the tv is still plenty audible. I might make another one from further away to get a more average sound base. I tried to go from my basic average speed to a bit faster. As you can see im also in the middle average cruising cog and 50t chain ring. The whistle that you hear is possibly due to having low tire pressure in my back tire. Hope it helps for people concerned about noise although probably too close that the mic picked everything up.
Update 2: This looks absolutely identical to this trainer. http://www.amazon.com/RAD-Cycle-Products-MAX-Racer/dp/B005LGTKDG/ref=pd_sbs_sg_1 my guess is there identical.
Update 3: Surprised this review has gone off the charts. Glad the review is helpful and helping people make a decision. Unfortunately i gave mine away to a friend as i have moved to Southern France and trainers aren’t necessary here as it doesn’t ever get below 40 degrees.
