Review on Minoura Folding Trainer Rollers Guard by Rich Schobinger

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Just like a real asphalt track! Stay focused!

This is a very high quality home trainer! I was surprised at how durable it is for the price. The instructions aren't the best, but if you read ahead, it's not that bad. I ended up sending it back, but not because of a problem or product malfunction. Rather, I prefer multitasking during training. I used this single speed/fixed gear bike for indoor training on bad weather days. This simulator does not support the driver. You must pay attention to the process of balancing and maintaining speed and accurate direction to stay upright on this machine. It's very similar to riding a bike on pavement, rather than an exercise bike. If you want to watch TV indoors, you'll probably fall off this machine (haha). I personally prefer the trainer with stand that I replaced it with. Where the bike is mounted vertically and I can just pedal without focusing entirely on the bike.

Pros
  • Sports and outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
