I understand the difference between fan, magnetic and fluid and I know the physical difference of a traditional trainer and a rim mount one.
So are the rim mount trainers considered chinsy? Are they just as good as the ones that wear out the tires?
Any assistance or advice for a trainer is good. Basically what I'm looking for is a quality remote control fluid unit that costs less than $250 or a magnetic trainer with the characteristics of something like this one performancebike.comprofile.cfmOpen ↗ It will see constant use over the winter.
Also, are the RealAxiom trainers worth it? They seem like they'd make indoor training much more interesting.
