BTW those rollers I notice you can purchase a stand attachment (to hold the forks) this removes most of the need for balance correct? The reason I ask is my gf has very little balance and will be recovering from knee surgery. She will not be able to spin quickly or worry about balance for the first couple of months.
Absolutely correct.
With rollers there is no resistance so GF can just sit and spin.
Good for the range of motion without stressing the knee.
There are 2 types that I've seen. The most common stands
over the rollers and you replace the front wheel.
The other one keeps wheels on but has attachment which
supports bike at the bars. Tacx markets it and I'm interested
in it for the wife. If I ever find one I'll let you know.
