I am thinking of buying an indoor bike trainer.
I have 3 possibilities:
Cyclops Fluid 2
Kurt Kinetics
1upusa

Does anyone know them?
Which one would you suggest?

Thanks.

Roman,

Before I answer let me say welcome to Forums, Hope
you'll stick around for a while.
I have a Cyclops Fluid squared, really like it.
I had some problem with the resistance unit leaking,
called cyclops and 3 days later had a new unit.
Very good customer support.
Its stable, gives a good workout and I really like the
fact that I don't have to mess with resistance
settings.
I haven't heard of 1upusa, so I can't comment.
I have heard good things about the kirk kinetic
(which looks ALOT like the Fluid). I believe
with the kirk or cyclops you can't go wrong.
Hope this helps,
Marty
