Sportneer Turbo Trainer, Bike Trainer Stand Steel Bicycle Exercise Magnetic Stand with Noise Reduction Wheel for Indoor Trainer

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  I am especially impressed by the ease of use of this bike trainer stand. From opening the box to turning the pedals took about 4-5 minutes and set-up could not have been easier, particularly for a bike with quick-release wheels so no tools are necessary. It involved nothing more than replacing the quick-release axle from my wheel with that supplied with the trainer stand, slotting the bike into place and securing it a large lever clamp then placing the front wheel on the supplied non-slip wheel pad. Rear wheel resistance is set by adjusting the resistance wheel until it just touches the bike tyre and resistance is adjusted via a dial which clips onto the front handlebars.Once set up, the bike feels completely secure with no wobble and pedaling is just like being out on the road. There is inevitably some noise from the rear wheel but even when used on a lino-covered suspended floor, it was little more than a low hum. Resistance adjustments via the dial were very effective and particularly noticeable on the upper three levels. It doesn't include any sort of bike computer for calculating cadence, virtual speed or distance covered but should work with a simple wireless bike computer fitted to the rear wheel. The front wheel doesn't rotate but remains held securely in a wheel pad with non-slip feet.I'm not a sporty or athletic cyclist but a leisure cyclist who enjoys touring and occasional bike-packing, ie camping with my bike. I miss it during the winter months in the rain, fog, cloud and murk then every spring always feel unfit. This indoor bike trainer now allows me to use my familiar bike year-round, whatever the weather without it being an effort or time-consuming to set-up. The more sporty will probably choose to use it for speed-training and as an alternative to visiting a gym - so it is useful for all fitness levels and for any bike with 26-29"/700c wheels. When not in use it folds to a neat, compact size (56x46x16cm) and can be easily stored under a bed.I consider it strong, sturdy, well-made, well-designed and good value for money. A good buy.

Being 57 and now the kids are up I got a bike for Christmas. Just to relive my youth, you know?Any way, all started off well, good but cold weather; and then the rain came so off the road for Jimmy.Got this bad boy and setting up was a breeze, mounted the bike stuck on Picard and away I went. Went through the gears, cranked up the resistance and wow!!!! I was out on the road. Really good workout and quite realistic ride.I was in the front room, wife in the back room; she couldn’t hear a thing.45 minutes later and sweating like pig, I put everything away in less than a minute.Now eight hours later my legs know they have been on a journey. As Jens Voigt Said,‘Shut up legs!’

Must confess that despite receiving this item a while ago have not actually used. However I can tell you it’s heavy (not stupidly heavy-I’m a bit wimpy), looks exceptionally well made and durable. I fully intend to use this in a couple of weeks when I have more time and will update this review

Bought this trainer to replace a old spinning bike, pleased with the product really easy to put together. Mounting and releasing your bike is a doddle resistance settings are good. Over all it’s better than old spinning bike and it takes up a lot less space.

Great product, simple to assemble and good quality

I bought this as I have been shielding with my children and we really needed something else to do for excersise. This piece of kit is excellent quality and took no time at all for my husband to put together. We've used it outside and brought it in now as the weather isn't great. Any noise is just the sound of the ture going round against the metal as you would expect, but there is no rocking or taping on the floor as you ride. It's very sturdy. We absolutely love it.

Good product, have enjoyed a few sessions until i had to stop due to neighbors complaining of noise and vibrations.This guy even told me i was affecting the whole street!!! Probably exagerating...Must be due to those old houses with floor boards and poor insulation.Will have to move away, with a little luck my next neighbors would not mind a daily 20mn session on my sportneer/

I have never used one of these before, but it is sturdy and easy to set up - surprisingly so. If I had a complaint, it is that when setting it up the hinged part is not stiff enough and when setting up, this sometimes closes but as you're trying to put the bike in the frame.When using, the resistance adjuster does not seem to vary hugely, but by using the gears on the bike I managed to get a comfortable resistance.
