  • My super magneto pro kills my legs.

    There'll be a few factors at play there though.

    To be honest that Jetblack looks good for the money.

  • Yeah I think you guys are right. I already have loads of data (which I barely understand) on my rotor 2inpower + Garmin 820 combo. The more I read about active 'smart' trainers the less I see the point. Surely the benefit of a turbo is to do sweet spot intervals on fixed resistances right?

  • They are brilliant for controlled efforts. So whatever intervals you want really.

    For me controlling resistance by simply shifting into a higher gear seems the best. I don't want any other features. I have trainer road which will display my wattage, cadence etc. on my laptop via the sensors I already have on my bike. So I can do all the training vids etc.

    That said I have 3 resistance curves on mine. Which allowed me to hit sweetspot at 85 rpm on the fixed gear. So some adjustability has been handy.

    I still hate it though.

    I've just bought a house, and need all new white goods. But all I can focus on is a replacement for my horrible turbo when I set p the new training space.
