I’m thinking this winter might be the one I finally give indoor training a try. I don’t have the space to leave it setup (small flat + kids) so I’ll be putting my bike on it every time. Without having any experience of it, it feels like a wheel off/direct trainer will be less setup faff (2 steps - wheel off, bike onto trainer) than a wheel on one (3 steps - wheel off, turbo wheel/tyre on, bike onto trainer). Anyone got experience of this to share? (Or a second hand trainer to sell me?!)
Direct drive, lower faff and noise, handy if you have a flat below you.
Something like a Elite Suito is good as you can fold the legs and store in a narrow space.
