Subject: RE: can you recommend a good bike trainer?? mmckinley - 2006-09-22 1:41 PM I went to a Performance bike shop last night to ask about trainers. The Cyclops Fluid-2 was selling for $279 and the Performance brand ( I can't remember the name) was a Fluid trainer and was selling for $139. The salesman just didn't think it was worth it to pay an extra $140 for the Cyclops. At a Performance store they probably make more money selling Performance products but the only real difference he could tell me between the two was that the Cyclops does a very good job and not getting really hot. Anyone have any insight here? I was thinking about stepping up to the CycleOps but I don't want to do it for nothing. Caren, I'm hoping this question is helpful to you otherwise I have done some serious thread hijacking. THis is totally helpful thanks! I went to performance as well, only the sales guy there wouldn't know a bike if I threw it at him. I really find the service there to be lacking. I digress.... I hear that their clamps are tricky to use...are they the same clamps as the cyclops? If so, |
