I'm after a cheap turbo trainer just to keep the legs ticking over. I borrowed a friends one in the summer and quite enjoyed it. I'll use it with a flat bar 700c Charge Grater.
The Planet X fluid one is back to 'half price', so £72 posted. Worth it?

I'm pretty sure it's a rebrand but I'm not sure of what!
In truth I'd get what's in stock, in your budget. Proper lockdown in January.
Hens. Teeth.
that looks quite a lot like an older Kinetic turbo if memory serves (mind, they're all pretty similar). I bought a Kinetiic from P-X years and years ago, so maybe....
If it is that - bombproof and quite nice to ride on. Not "smart" in any way, obvz
(mine was older than the green paintjobs but I think the basics are same)
Thanks all. Have now ordered one.
Glad your are sorted op.👍
Half tempted to order one for my sis, there's talk of her trying to finally ride her practically unused 11-month old bike, after a wrist op didn't go well a week or two after the purchase... A slip/slide in wintery conditions would be disasterous for her confidence.
Might be a good purchase at that price mate. Yeah, a fall on the ice at the moment onto an arm or hand wouldn't be great.
