"I got them to augment my trainer. So far the trainer has done nothing but gathered dust. As close as you can get to being on the road while in the basement. "dexter

Ease of installation

No install. Just place bike on them.

Ease of use

Worked like they should. The problem is learning to use. It is said to start in a doorway. I'm not sure that is the best way. I had a large sturdy box on one side and the weight bench sideways loaded with 200lbs on it. It gave me a more natural hand hold and more hand hold. When you fall off the rollers you just kinda land to the side and stop. You don't go flying into the wall. I gotta say I wore my helmet the first few rides and made sure the phone was close on the floor. It is scary.

Performance

Smooth and clean. Do what they should.

Strengths

Ease of use. Put the bike and you on the bike and go.
Smoothness like snot on a glass doorknob.
Quiet. Really very little noise at all. You hear you bike more then the rollers.
Drums are large and free spinning.

Weakness

Need to have something close to grab when you stop unless you have super natural balance.
