Review on Enhance Your Indoor Cycling Experience with 🚴 the Front Wheel Riser Block for Bicycle Trainers by Sfl Richardson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Cheaply made - not usable

UPDATE: 12/24/2020 I have downgraded my rating to 2 stars as after 1.5 years of use I can definitely say that this riser is not operational. Goal. After about 3 months of road cycling use on the Zwift it started to fail front and rear at the tire seat. It shouldn't start failing in such a short time, but a crack or two alone doesn't render a riser useless. However, after about 9 months or a year, the cracks became so severe that the tire landing pad collapsed halfway to the base, making the use of a riser somewhat pointless. After 1.5 years of use the bug is almost completely gone and the riser no longer has any useful function other than a place to mount my front wheel - it doesn't "raise" more than 1/2". It just breaks together. See photos. I suspected. When I bought this I found that the material from which this instep was made would not be suitable and I can confirm that it is indeed as bad as I feared. the item is very expensive in the long run i strongly advise everyone to buy something other than this product original review: for the price it's hard to fault but here it is anyway block if you run or jump a lot out of the saddle you can easily do it with squeeze your hand. I understand why several reviewers have reported that their device has failed after a few months. I expect this won't last very long as I'm quite prone to twining. All this to say, that it currently holds my front wheel where I want it on a rocker platform. If it doesn't work, I won't buy it again.
