Questions & Answers

The baseline tension can it be adjusted in any way? No, I haven't tried one, but I understand that simply changing gears gives you dynamic range. In that case, how can you adjust the min?

It can't be adjusted because the base resistance is fixed. There is nothing fancy about these Due to their low price, they are marketed to the lower end of the market.

There is rock/slate flooring in my home It is uneven on the surface. Do the legs of the trainer have the possibility of being adjusted so they do not tilt?

It is possible for them

More than 48" of wheelbase extends from the front of my bike. There is a roller that will fit it, right?

Unfortunately, this product can only be used with wheels that measure up to 43 inches in diameter. There will be no admission of the sizing or advertising of it,

The situation at first seemed daunting, but it turned out to be A roller that I love! I am using one for the first time
5/5

Here is the jigsaw piece I put As I tried it out, it worked. Because I was worried that I would crash, I began to sweat. There were quite a few times when I crashed. About 30 minutes after figuring out how to ride, I became proficient. Do not let the past get in the way of your future. Keep your eyes focused on the road ahead rather than Keep your grip on the handle bars relaxed, and don't lean too much forward. Pedal smoothly while concentrating on the pedal. Don't spend too much time thinking. All of this will be corrected naturally by your body. In addition, I started biking just last month. Since I have no years of experience, I cannot give advice. Despite its fixed gear, the size of my bike is 49 cm. My height is 5'6" and my weight is 143 lbs. The seventh setting is placed in the slot. My hope is that this will be of assistance to This update will be made on November 11th, 20. *Since we last spoke it has been about two months. By now, risk of falling is such a distant thought from my mind that I no longer think about it. A 30-minute show is on my television With the rollers, you can watch 60 minutes of shows.

He is an excellent trainer
5/5

My Kinetic Rockn'Roll wheel was broken, so I bought this as an alternative. I also bought a used trainer from Amazon (which I also bought new). My savings are over $50 since I returned a product. I received the product in its original box along with all of There's no instruction in the manual for this, but you need to adjust the frame so that the axis of the front roller is 2 cm in front of the center of your front wheel. In order to stop your bike from skipping forward off the front roller, this is necessary. Using a roller trainer is something I have never done before, so I am definitely learning something new. In order to get used to the feel of it, I used the outside wall of my house and it took me 30 minutes to figure out how it works. Getting used to the constant feeling of fish-like motion will be the hardest part if you've never used rollers before The tail does exactly what it's supposed to do. As a beginner, I recommend that you go faster to make stabilization easier. Once I got the hang of it, I started using large concrete blocks (rather than a wall) on either side to step on to catch myself if I fell. It is difficult to balance on this horse because the way it is built requires constant attention and is harder for a rider to do. Trying these rollers out will be a great challenge if you are looking for something new!.

Excellent roller
5/5

Very happy with it. This roller is worth the money, easy to assemble in less than 5 minutes, and worth the money. You have to get used to it and be in control, and it takes time. However, you must remain patient, as this helps your cadence and balance as well. Having done it five times, I am convinced that it is very easy - You might want to practice next to a wall the first few times, and place a chair or other thing on the other side to steady your foot in case you lose your.

It was a challenge for sure, but worth the effort
4/5

Some reviews say they are challenging, and I agree. I can only work on them for about 10 minutes at a time, but it is well worth it. It has been a few days and I have ridden them around every day, but I have yet to be able to ride without holding onto something for a full 10 minutes. It's fortunate for me that I have a squat rack that fits nicely between them. When I lay my bar on the ground in line with my imaginary path on the floor and focus on the other end, I am able to do this much better. This is hard for me at the moment, but I am sure it will get better. It is no secret that any bad riding technique (choppy pedal stroke, leaning on the bars), will be magnified ten times on rollers. That is why I chose rollers in the first place, to correct all of them. Sadly, my trainer tires already have a few black smudges on them, so I hope they can be removed. A regular road tire would probably be more suitable, but those gravel tires were loud when I had them on the bike. My wife on the next floor said it sounded like helicopters, so I would recommend a smoother tire. The 700x37 gravel tires I had were really Don't forget to engage your core!.

You have a hard time rolling with rollers
5/5

Cycling has been my hobby for a long time, but I have never used rollers before. As rulers go, I can see why these might be some of the easier ones to use. My computer crashed within 15 minutes because I was having a really hard time. In the beginning when I was looking for road cycling, I wanted to have that real feel. While I work out, I am also able to watch TV. I returned the rollers and bought a Kinetic rock 'n' roll trainer instead. You have to see it to believe it. Kinetic is the best choice if you are looking to feel the workout a little more naturally, and don't want to put all of your attention into your trainer.

I have changed my life since using this product
5/5

The rollers in my studio apartment have turned it into a true gym. Under my bed, they tuck away, but when I am ready for an intense professional level training session, I can now do it in the comfort and safety of my own It's such a relief to now be able to use my Fix Gear bicycle anytime I want without being concerned with safety. Los Angeles has a very high risk of injury, so I feel delighted to use it anywhere I want.

I couldn't believe how low my hips would sink after moving from Boston (where I commuted daily to work by bike), to Austin (where drivers and heat make cycling a challenge sometimes), and now being a graduate student the only thing I could do will be sit Several years ago, I bought a CycleOps fluid trainer in the middle of Boston snowfall to ride when it was cold out There were a lot of covers and I became bored Trying to get fit, I ordered one of these and am glad that I did
4/5

After riding it for a week and a half, I'm pretty sure that it's something I'd recommend. It makes for a more interesting workout when you must keep your balance and spin smoothly. By cycling between gears, you can change the feel and resistance in some way. Although the rollers roll really smoothly and quietly, and the taper means you have to maintain balance to keep them on course, however, watching Netflix while riding is fine. Shift off if you want to When you move the center a lot, the rollers make some noise when they bounce along the lateral plane, but this disappears as you stabilize. I did have an issue with one of the holes where the spring connects to the body. Several pins go through the frame in order to lock the A slight flaw in the mold caused the hole to not lock in place, so the pin would not engage. Thankfully, the problem was quickly corrected by reaming one side of the hole a bit with an x-acto blade Blade acts as a cutting tool. A 5 star rating would have been more appropriate were it not for that minor issue that needed addressing.

Edit for It has been around 600 miles since these rollers have been used, and they are holding up well. Both the bearings and the rollers are doing fine.
