Right, the smart trainer already increases the resistance on the virtual hills. I already have the front end of my bike in a climbing position which is mostly the muscle fibers I want to recruit. I guess it give a more variable position during the ride but I don't think I'd want to pay for it. Still hoping to hear from those that have tried it.
