Anyone else using a Cycleops Fluid 2 turbo? Picked one up from s friend the other week to replace an old knackered Minoura.
Thing is I'm noticing the resistance is light then builds over about 20 minutes!! Then once it's up there it's brutal. During a 20 min FTP test I was reduced to pushing a 39-19 for the last 10 mins.
It's not very linear which doesn't help me on trainerroad's virtual power (I have no PM).
Shame as I like the feel but I think I need to move back to a more linear magnetic turbo.
FYI, I did a 56 in the week so my fitness isn't terrible.
