Title: Pay more for a better trainer
Product review: I bought this trainer and tried it with my road bike a couple of times. It did not generate any noticable resistance. I had to switch to the highest gear combination and still not enough. It did generate lots of vibration and noise. I suppose one could increase resistance by tightening the roller onto the bike tire...but that can tear up your tire pretty quickly.I am not big on indoor trainers but I had used a Cycle-ops fluid trainer before, and that gave far better resistance and was much quieter. This is a low end trainer. If I were buying another one (I sold mine), I would look for one with a bigger/stronger resistance mechanism.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
