Kurt Kinetic Breeze
Has anyone tried the Kurt Kintic Breeze trainer? How well does it work? I can't see from the picture how the flywheel adjusts to the rear wheel. Thanks.

The rear wheel is held in place by arms that angle backwards. They also pivot at the bottom. So when you clamp your wheel, then sit on the bike, gravity forces it onto the rear spindle.

No experience wit this one. Based on the design, I would guess its pretty noisy, fans usually are. Don't know the others.

Don't get the ascent. They are unstable, super noisy, and utilize too many plactic parts. KK is a good company so maybe this budget trainer will be good as well. Give it a try and write us a review!
