    Anyone ever used this from halfords for under 100 quid??

    Elite Trainer

    Key thing for me is I live in a flat, so it needs to be quiet. Or any other suggestions would be appreciated.

    I saw this exact trainer in my local trainer linked to a hybrid and it just seemed to be making a humming noise at worst. Although I imagine this would depend on what tyre you had on it and also what flooring it was on.

    I’m tempted by one though.

    I use cheap camping mat on the floor ideal for sweat and deadens the noise.

    Been thinking about getting a trainer too and cancelling my gym membership as I only use the exercise bike and a couple of machines. I’m keen to hear any comments regarding this trainer too.

    I had a go on the Bwin one in Decathlon at the weekend. Considerably quieter than the cheap eBay one I bought a few years ago.

    Hadn’t seen the Halfords one.

    This one may be a little quieter as it has Elastogel on the roller.

    I also considered the satori from decathlon but when I decided to take the plunge it was out of stock.
