Hey Guys
This trainer is on spesh on T7:

Does anyone have any experience with this or how it compares to the more expensive and popular Cycleops Fluid 2?

Thanks
Phil

Certainly can't fault the unit so far. Never really used any others but on our roadies it works well. Runs quietly & smoothly and ramps up well when you pile on the power.

I've got a Cyclops that I'm not using anymore. It's in good condition. You could have it for $150, but I'd be happy for you to try b4 you buy to see if it works for you. I got to train for a race after a shoulder injury (5 broken bones and sub-located clavicle) when my shoulder was too sorer to ride. Used it a lot then and it was really good, but I didn't have the discipline to keep using it. It's at my work in Newtown. Pick up today (Friday 26th) or tomorrow would be OK.
