Turbo Trainer

[Paul H]

Could somebody recomend and decent trainer for me.

Ive got a Tacx mag at the moment and the resistance increases too much when I change gear and it doesnt feel like the road. As I got a powertap, I dont need a monitor/display.

I was think about a fluid trainer.

Cheers

[quote]Yes, you guessed it. My lovely ultra high tech, ultra reliable KK computer went schizoid during the 2nd interval and re-calibrated itself to a 26" wheel size.

There's nothing more fiddly than trying to reset a KK computer whilst pedaling at 90 rpm with a hear rate of around 170 while swearing out loud and immediately regretting it cos it takes too much oxygen.
This is the third KK computer I've had since November and each one has had to be sent back due to various anomalies like the buttons not working and the thing resetting to 0 whenever it feels like it.

bit expensive for me - I dont need a display as well.

Not being an expert on turbo trainers.... is it better to have a trainer with adjustable resistance? or doesn't that matter at all? Hadn't really thought about it but I noticed that the KK page described the resistance as changing with speed.
