Minoura Rollers
Anyone own them? Opinions? I figure I cant afford a nice enough trainer, so I might as well get some decent rollers.

I have a set. Had them for a year or so, really like them. Two riders in the family and they get used alot. The mag unit gives a really good workout. Smoothe and quiet.

I have a pair and they seem to last well and are quiet. They are easy to level. I usually leave the mag unit disconnected and don't have much experience with that. The only thing that bugs me is that they look alot like the performance brand rollers that were 40$ cheaper. no problems in 18mo. I also have one of their really old trainers and it has been bulletproof.
