It works just fine by shifting gears to change resistance. I guess it'll have no adjustable resistance :-/
When you're cranking away a little breeze will be very welcomed to help cool you off a bit.

That's not me, nor do I know her, just a pic I found while googling images looking for a trainer with a fan.
Someday I'd like to have a set of Kreitler rollers with the fan unit.
