Hi all,
So I’m finally able to be back in the saddle and enjoying being on the road again.
That being said, this is Britain and I’m aware the weather will eventually turn - or - I’ll just fancy being indoors for a ride
I’ve had various turbos in the past, all being wheel on variants, I’ve had a wattbike but admittedly I was suffering with hip issues when I had that so went largely unused by me.
Anyway….
I was wondering how easy a wheel off turbo is? I found that because I have a large rear end….and front end….and middle 😂 that wheel on turbos were ALWAYS hard. So even on the cool down sections there was so much resistance that there was never a spot that I could all but freewheel.
Does a wheel off sort this? Or is it just what turbos are? Of course I want to push in the sections I need to push, but equally I want easier green sections.
I’m not looking to jump into getting anything immediately, happy outside at the moment but as the colder whether starts to set in I’ll likely come indoors with it
