Bike Trainer, Magnetic Bicycle Stationary Stand for Indoor Exercise Riding, 26-29" & 700C Wheels, Quick Release Skewer & Front Wheel Riser Block Included

The second time was the charm. Another brand I bought here on Amazon arrived damaged. This one arrived in perfect working condition with no damage. The resistance roller assembly is packaged separately within the box, perfectly shielded in thick Styrofoam to avoid any damage in transit. The shifter works great too, and the speeds on my bike work in conjunction with the trainer's roller to ramp up the resistance much more than I'll ever use.The large handle used to engage and hold the bike in the stand is a welcome addition for my arthritic hands. It is noisy when pedaling faster, but that is expected, I just watch TV and zone out the noise.Provides great cardio that will make you sweat while using it, so have a fan and water handy (this here on Amazon works great for handlebars to hold my Rtic 28 ounce tumbler: Delta Cycle & Home Bike Cup Holder Expanding Beverage Cup Holder for Bike Handlebar - Universal Bike Drink Holder, Stroller Cup Holder, or Walker Cup Holder - Tool-Free Installation), but I used a screwdriver to really clamp it down.My 26" Jamis Hudson Sport with quick release is rock solid in the trainer with no wobble. It's well worth the money IMHO.

The best works as descripted

This is the first trainer that I've owned. Previously, I had a set of rollers, so my review might be influenced by prior experience with the rollers. The trainer was easy to set-up and the directions were good, so I didn't have any problems getting the bike into the trainer. I also purchased a rubber exercise equipment mat from Dick's Sporting Goods to put under the bike to deaden some of the vibration and protect the floor from my sweat.The first thing I noticed was the noise from the rear tire on the roller, so I change the tire with treads for a slick. That helped, and reduced the overall noise and vibration to a hum, which wasn't objectionable. I could easily watch TV without turning the sound way up.Getting off and on was no problem either. The trainer was a stable platform and held the bike well, so I could just step on or off the pedal to mount or dismount.I had some issues mounting the frictional force selector. I didn't have any room left on the handlebars, but I was able to mount it on the top tube near the headset.Now, my only criticism. I wish it had a larger flywheel. I only found a very small range where I had a reasonable riding feel and still had enough resistance to get a workout. This was at a resistance setting of 3. If I went up from 3, the pedal rotation got more jerky. I guess that's normal, but I think that a larger flywheel, with more rotational inertia, would smooth out the ride a bit more.Arnie

First confusing thing if you don't have a quick detach wheel, throw the quick release axle in the trash. First confusing thing, gone. Next, tried putting the handlebar selector on the handlebars. TIGHTLY. Tried tightening one half turn at a time so I could try tightening cam lobe on front side or other side. No amount of wiggling, twisting, torqueing would Latch it on correctly. I finally found a compromise of sorts and zip tied it on the rest of the way. Instead of trying to make something hi tech, cheaply, they should have given you a couple of different size shims and Just used a Bolt and Nut setup. IT would never stay on out on the road even for a second, but that is not what itis made for. Solidly holds the bike still and gives a very firm feel. Just like a stationary bike does. I leave the shifter in 6th gear and change the gears on my bike so that I dont have to fuss with the bike trainer shifter barely clamped on my bike. Hope the rest of It is more solidly built to last as I bought this with affirm financial. PPPPPPPP......SSSSSSS....... CAN anyone tell me how tight to tighten the resistor. I couldnt fine a place to ask a question on the ad. I have a nice smooth spot in the center of my tire tread. I slowly turn the wheel and tighten the resistor. I have a spot turning the tire where it doesnt touch like the rest of tire, slightly egg shaped. I lightly tighten till it touches there so I have contact all the way around. I'M getting rubber residue all over the floor and my bedding as its the only place I can ride in my trailer. MORE tight or MORE loose? Tire wont last long like this. Should I wear a mask, yuk, to not breath rubber particles? IF it wasnt 110 degrees out, I would be outside and not have this worry.NEW UPDATE! Bike and Stand ARE working 😁💪 great! Hasn't hurt the tire 🛞. I've applied more pressure because of the tire not being perfectly round. Grips MORE of the tire tread and hasn't hurt the tire at all. AND I've lost 6 pounds! Would gladly buy again!Happy Thanksgiving! November 22nd Update; Bike and stand both doing great! No tire wear with tightening the resistor firmly enough that it contacts the tire all the way around as my tire isn't perfectly round. I've lost 10 pounds riding this bike and set up! Ready for the holidays!
