I am curious but not prepared to spend a lot of money to get started. I have a very basic, cheap stationary bike and a set of rollers. Any insight on the easiest, cheapest way to get set up on ZWIFT?
As mentioned above, with rollers its hard to get a good experience as they don't have a nice resistance profile Zwift can use to calculate watts. Watts are what move your avatar in Zwift. There is an "unsupported rollers" setting where you'll get to try things out as long as you have an ANT+ dongle and a speed sensor on your bike.
