Just for fun while I’m confined I’ve been thinking about constructing my own trainer from scrap that I have in my shed and garage. I don’t really want to purchase anything, even online, as it would feel like breaking my self imposed rules. I’ve fitted SPDs to my wife’s exercise machine but I’d...

Hi folks, with my boundless sense of timing I acquired an old steel Bianchi a few weeks ago, planning on upgrading during the summer as well as getting some rides in, then a repaint over winter.... well... the long rides are out... anyway I fitted a set of Vittoria Corsa Graphene tanwalls within...
Might be a daft question but does anyone know if you can use a disc brake bike on a turbo trainer? I bought a trainer about a year ago from Halfords, it's just a basic one, and set it up with an old mountain bike which was gathering dust in the shed, but couldn't seem to get on with it. If we do...
I am on the road to recovery from various heart and lung surgical procedures and am wanting to do quite a lot of turbo trainer exercise on my bike before going out onto the open road, primarilly because I want to check if my ticker is working properly when under load.
I have never been into...
Thinking about squeezing my turbo trainer set up into my tiny office (steady now, i know what you're thinking:laugh:).
If i go down this route i'll likely buy a dedicated 2nd bike that i can leave set up permanently like this. But in order for it to fit in the place i have in mind i would need...
As I'm unable to get out on the road these last two months I borrowed a Turbo trainer from my son I have a Garmin Edge 800 with speed sensor on the rear wheel hub and a cadence sensor on the crank The cadence sensor works ok but no speed shows. Or when I uploaded details from the Garmin after...

The good lady wife has been nagging me recently to set her bike up on the turbo trainer for her so she can have a play with the BKool simulator and see how realistic it is.
So while she was in town earlier I did...

As I can no longer compete in triathlons (both hips now replaced, so no running) I don't use my turbo trainer anymore. I am therefore selling my KK Rock & Roll turbo with the turntable riser and a (well) used (but still serviceable) turbo tyre, I will also throw in the cheap rear wheel that I...
Hi all, wrong time of year I know, but my old trusted turbo trainer has died, so looking for a new one. Thought a smart ( preferably interactive ) one would be good as I have been using Zwift. If anyone has one for sale, or that they don’t use then I would be interested.
Thanks

The turbo trainer in question is an Elite Roteo/Volano.
Whilst using it last night, it appears that the belt may have slipped of a couple of ridges & then split :sad:
I've found a replacement belt for about £20, but...
Hi Guys,
All this rain is really getting me down as I can't (won't) go out with heavy rain/wind together, but don't want to lose the strengh I've built up from going out every other day.
I'm looking for something mainly for a mountain bike and it will get used on a regular basis, so it needs...
So to rehabilitate I'm thinking of hiring a turbo trainer, to which I can attach my own bike. In order to stave off boredom I want one that can be linked to a laptop and allows me to do virtual rides.
Any suggestions?
Appreciate this may be better in the indoor training section but thought I'd give it a whirl...
When is a turbo trainer tire done? Looks pretty spent to me and efficiency is poor (as its not for the road I don't mind that so much, just more training). But just looking some opinion and pointers...
Any recommendations for some flat pedals that won't chew up running shoes.
Just taken delivery of a Qubo Power Fluid TTand whilst I am happy to use it with a set of SPD's I'd rather use my running shoes that I wear on the treadmill so that I can swap between one and the other without hassle.
As in another thread, I bought this the day after my bike accident on 17th June when I was told I wouldn't be able to ride a bike for 6 months. As it is by thoroughly ignoring doctor's advice I am back on the road.
This works really well but I just don't have the space or a second bike to put...
Am looking to buy a turbo trainer and trying to work out if it's worthwhile forking out the extra for a smart trainer? I have a power meter on my bike which I believe is one way of "upgrading" as it were a basic trainer to more of a smart trainer level. What are the benefits of smart over basic?
The plan was.
never owned a bike.
A.would buy turbo trainer & bike in winter.
B.get used to gears etc on turbo trainer & get fitter during winter using the trainer.
C.spring starts to go outside on the bike but still keep training.
Problem is going outside is fine but i would like to still...

As per the title, I’ve got a fully working Apple TV 2nd generation box for sale with the remote.
It has a few very light cosmetic marks on it. Barely noticeable but worth a mention.
I’ve used this for mirroring my iPad to a tv whilst on the turbo and it worked well. I’ve just decided...

I bought the Tacx Satori Smart Turbo Trainer to start building up but wondering if perhaps I should return and get the elite qubo digital b+ smart or the kinetic road Machine 2.0 ?
