Subject: RE: bike trainer I love my nashbar mag (aka Minoura mag ). I also have the fluid. Both are inexpensive, and have lasted years and years. They are quiet enough to watch TV with, as well. My mag was $75, and my fluid $125 (they are a bit more now, but still good deals ). I ride my trainer a LOT...yes, even in the summer sometimes 2-3 times a week, and I've never felt the urge to spend more $$ to change. I have ridden others, Kurt Kinetic, Cyclops, etc...and they are fine, sure, but not (to me ) worth the extra $.
