Bike for Trainner
 

I am working nights and watch security screens for 12 hours a day and was planning to buy a super cheap bike with a trainer. I want to get a bike that if it stolen, I do not have a lot of investment..

Which one would you choose?

1. Kent Genesis 700C Bohe Men's Gravel Bike

2. Vilano TUONO T20 Aluminum Road Bike 21 Speed Disc Brakes, 700c

3. Kent 700c Nazz Men's Gravel Road Bike, Black

any one
just ride!

They're all going to be fairly low end models. Buy the one that comes in your size and if you can check them out in person beforehand, the one that fits and you like the look of the most!

They are equally on the do not buy list. You are better off trying to find something used if your budget is that low or look at a single speed. You could also get a nicer bike and a proper lock and use good locking practices. If I am just trying to pedal on a trainer a single speed would be fine. The State Core line is nothing special but is a much better option than the above.

If it's just for a trainer then I'd look at a spin bike instead; they take up less space, make less noise and will give you more stats.

If it's for using outside and on a trainer, then you also need to consider the trainer. Assuming it's a wheel-on trainer (the cheapest options, where you mount the axle and the tire sits on a roller) just requires the bike to have a quick release rear hub, which will have a lever on one side.

Other than that, just get any bike that fits you and seems to be in good mechanical condition.

Any bike with a 700C wheel that can handle a narrow slick (23mm) will give you the quietest performance.
