    I have owned various roller sets and stationary training systems from other well-known companies previously and have never been too satisfied, others have been too noisy and hard to set up – taking a lot of space.

    This set up is well thought out, it is extremely quiet and very portable.

    I liked the shipping configuration/packaging, it all folds down into three sections and I did not have to think too hard to get the thing set up. I do confess I purchased a front wheel stand from Kreitler – this actually took more effort to bolt together than the rollers.

    Easy setup good packaging. Narrow with slippery rollers but that is expected on a portable unit

    These rollers are awesome. They come pre-assembled in their folded up orientation, which is very compact compared to other fixed frame rollers I’ve used in the past. Simply unfold them with the band in place between the front and middle roller and you’re ready to ride. For those new to rollers, please understand THERE IS NO SUPPORT. I mean this as a positive though. The entire objective of rollers is to improve your balance and riding technique. If you’re looking for purely a resistance workout, you probably want a fluid or magnetic trainer (where the back wheel is clipped in and stationary). I use these rollers with my track bike and they are great. Very smooth, reasonably quiet, and with my gear ratio, provide a decent amount of resistance for me to workout for 30mins to 1hr. If it’s your first time, I recommend placing a tall chair on either side of you for support, and a towel underneath the rollers to catch sweat. There’s also an unconditional lifetime warranty on these, which for me helped justify the pricepoint. Happy rolling!

    Impressed at how easy to unfold/set up right out of the box. Nice looking and felt like quality. These were my first rollers I’ve tried, and I wasn’t expecting the amount of resistance and of course could not balance without holding on to the couch. I couldn’t ride for more than a couple minutes, which made me realize I wouldn’t be able to use it for an hour at a time this winter. If you can do it, great! You might want to “try out” rollers somewhere before buying if you’ve never tried them. They’re obviously just not for me, so I returned them the next day. Thinking a trainer or stationary bike will suit me better.

    I just thought I would throw out some numbers for those curious as I was. I am a 190 pound rider with a road bike and these work pretty well. I’d say these are usable up to about 350 watts before you run out of gears (depending on your cadence). For me running 25mph is ~200 watts on my power meter. Plan accordingly if you need more power than that. I use these to supplement a smart trainer so these are fine. Also I love that they fold up so small for easy storage.

    Never been on a set of rollers before, I bought these for my first set. I was looking at the parabolic ones too, however these just take a little practice. I placed it between my fridge and a center island , after about 10 minutes I was doing it! I wouldnt worry about not getting a workout on these, unless you can hold 350-400 watts for 20+ plus minutes. I’m currently around 175 watts, I still have many gears to go before I would spin out. The resistance seems really good although I am using 32mm tires, would imagine 23mm tires would be cool too. I dont get bored nearly as quick as I do on my turbo trainer, but both have their place. These rollers really do fold up nicely, and the quality of them really does seem to stand out. I dont know if I would have gotten the same satisfaction out of a cheaper set of rollers but I wanted something that would last.

    I’ve been riding rollers for over 25 years. I love the workout and when it’s time to ride outdoors, the balance and spin I’ve acquired over the winter translate into more control and confidence on the road or trail. The cylinders are really quiet and the small grooves keep the tires from slipping off when you’re going fast. Setup is easy. Highly recommend this product.

    It took this 70 year old about 20 minutes to get the hang of these rollers. I tried to start up from the floor, but could not do that after a few attempts (the bike sits higher off the floor and you need a certain amount of speed to stay upright) so now use a bench beside the rollers. Riding takes about the same effort as actual road riding, but is much more dependent on tire pressure because the roller/tire interface is smaller. I find it easy enough to ride if I’m looking downwards, but I can’t look at the TV continually or I ride off the edge. This seems dangerous as you boot along, but it isn’t that bad to fall off. The rollers run very smoothly and don’t make much noise.
