Smashing, cheers!
What's a good cheapish option for a turbo that could be upgraded for rouvy/zwift etc if I changed my mind about the smart option, anything to look for or definitely avoid? It's always possible I'll spend more time on it than I expected given there's probably gonna be half an inch of ice outside until March...
Ta!
mcJ78-
I only have experience with Computrainer (old but solid, cheap now) and KICKR (~£1k) so I'm not the one to ask regarding cheap smart trainers. Some people just use speed sensor thingies instead of power but there's not much point in my mind doing that unless you want to just pretend you're World Tour pro level in Zwift races.
hippy
If you get turbo axle nuts you should be able to use most cheap turbos.
I've used these on a Cyclops Fluid Pro for example and I'm pretty sure they fit the Computrainer too.
