Product Description
See your fitness-and your bike handling skills-improve when you add CycleOps rollers to your training program. You'll increase your balance, control and ability to ride a straight line, all of which translate to more efficiency, power and technique on the road. And because you have to pedal 100% of the time to balance your bike, you get an amazing workout. After a winter on rollers you'll be poised to lead the pack in the spring. Not only do rollers provide the most awesome stationary workout with incredible real-world ride feel, but they're also simple to set-up, store and transport. For warming up before a race or watching the time fly by during an indoor ride, rollers offer the ultimate in versatility and simplicity. CycleOps Aluminum rollers are a great starter set for indoor and outdoor use because they won't distort in heat or sunlight. This magnetic bar that works within the magnetic field of the rolling aluminum rear drum, allows you to increase the difficulty of your workout without any extra noise. CycleOps rollers can be conveniently folded for grab-and-go transport and out of the way storage, so training areas stay clutter-free. CycleOps Aluminum rollers are built to last and carry a lifetime warranty. Constructed from bi-fold tubular steel they can stand up to all sorts of abuse-like being tossed into the car, set up in parking lots at races, getting stepped on and the general rigors of daily use. We also guarantee that if anything ever breaks on it, we'll fix it or replace it. The 3.25-3.5" precision lathed drum diameters offer an optimal range of resistance with a super smooth ride and the adjustable wheel base fits just about any size bike. Rubber foot pads ensure that the only thing moving on the rollers are the drums so you get a secure, sturdy ride. Because mastering the rollers can take a few tries, the 16" wide base gives you room to move around until you're holding a straight line like never before.

No surprises... works as advertised.

The rollers were delivered by amazon in a timely manner. This is my first set of rollers, and I have never used a trainer, so I don't have other equipment to compare this too. I bought these to use during the winter, because I thought it would be more interesting than using a treadmill, and I would get to use my new road bike year around. I think the reviews are pretty accurate as to the quality of these rollers. Rollers are fairly expensive. Given the price point of the cycleops, I think these are an excellent value for someone who would like a folding set of rollers, or maybe a person who is a casual rider trying to get some spin time in during inclement weather (which happens to be about 1/2 of the year in the midwest, unfortunately). I was worried about them supporting my weight, as I am a larger guy, but they do a great job, and are smooth to ride on once you get the hang of it. If I was a serious rider, I would have probably chosen a more expensive set.For those of you that are wondering if you can ride rollers, videos online make it look easy. When I first started out, it was harder than I thought it would be. I learned fairly quickly by putting the rollers in a door frame. by the third time I used them, I moved them out of the door frame and next to a wall. I'm still using them against this wall, as it is difficult to get started without some sort of support. It really is great exercise, probably even better strength and aerobic exercise than riding outside since you have to use more upper body strength to balance the non-moving bike, and you have to constantly pedal to keep the wheels spinning. If you have a bike and hate running on treadmills, then this is worth a shot.

The Cycleops Rocks!
By G. G. Mason
I was looking for an indoor trainer that would be simple to set up and use and the Cycleops is perfect. It needs very little space, takes no time at all to set up and you don't have to do anything to your bike to use it. It takes a little practice to get going but if you can ride a bike, you can ride rollers! I have mine set up between my bed and the wall so getting started is easier. The Cycleops is the best indoor fitness item I've ever purchased.

Great workout!
By E. Walters
After the reading other reviews on trainers and rollers, I decided that the rollers would be more enjoyable to use. The rollers arrived assembled and easy to adjust to my bike. I started in a doorway with regular tennis shoes. The first 5 -10 minutes were scary. I thought there was no way I was going to be able to stay on. Then, I started to worry less about falling off and peddled faster and felt much more comfortable. After about 15 minutes I moved the rollers and bike into a hallway and used my cleats and had a great workout. I figure I would stay in the hallway one more time before I graduate to an open room. Build quality seems good and I expect long term reliability.
