Hello,

As the title implies I am looking for either a smart trainer or MTB. I am looking at the Vitus MTB range for 2019 HT and an Elite Direto. This isn't some, "porque no quiero los dos?" scenario. Haha. A little about me: I currently weigh 67.13kg with an FTP of 316. I do not race road and I do race cross. I have no desire to race MTB. My endurance is there but my skills could use some work. I am finishing this CX season off strong. I thus far have picked up some points and looking to get more to upgrade to cat 3 before this season ends. By no means will I be upset if this is not accomplished; I will be a 3 by next season closure.

Both items are in the 8-900 dollar range. I currently have a Cyclops fuild trainer 2 with a power meter on my road bike that I couple with Zwift. I have seen great results from this set up thus far and want to only be on the trainer for 2-3 sessions a week for structure during the winter. Otherwise I have made it a goal to ride outside more often.

My only hesitation for getting the MTB would be the lack of use compared to my road and cx bike. I only really plan to use it during the winter.

Cheers!
