Anyone Ever Seen a Trainer like this?
I was just wondering if anyone knows what kind of trainer this is. I have never seen anything like it.

well, in the second case, they were a GROUP of TRAINED cyclists...so maybe they're averaging it, or adding it all up or something...
either way, there are much cheaper air resistance-based trainers availible.
RIP....OFFF.

so then why is one of the 7up guys using one? as a side note remember that one of the 7up squad won the national championship crit in '03, but then again who knows if they used this trainer.

I was thinking the same, plus..... with guns like those, me thinks maybe he can't get enough resistance with a typical mag unit.
