maddmaxx ★ Posted January 4, 2020 Share #3 Posted January 4, 2020 I bolted my bike to the trainer. It sucks but it cost nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikeguy Posted January 4, 2020 Share #4 Posted January 4, 2020 Yesterday my wife told me she almost purchased the cycling Peloton for my Christmas gift. I asked what ‘almost’ meant. She explained that sometime just before she was going to purchase it, we were discussing our son-in-law and niece who both ride their Pelotons and love them. I told her I would never want one. I’d rather just ride my rollers or ride my bike. They were paid for years ago, and there is no monthly fee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted January 4, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted January 4, 2020 It's not likely I'll ever get one. I have two really nice indoor cycling setups, one full Wahoo setup, one rollers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted January 4, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted January 4, 2020 Maybe a treadmill. That looked cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Further Posted January 5, 2020 Share #7 Posted January 5, 2020 I would like to have a decent treadmill, and a roller set up. I'm happy with my Roubaix on a trainer but would like some variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page Turner Posted January 5, 2020 Share #8 Posted January 5, 2020 ...I just moved my self to someplace I can exercise outdoors in the winter. I know it's cheating, but I don't care. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted January 5, 2020 Share #9 Posted January 5, 2020 I bought a smart trainer for the winter here to get some miles in over the winter on my road bike and get WofZ to get some miles in before it is nice here to get a head start on her being ready for June riding. I have done a few rides on it so far and it us pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted January 5, 2020 Share #12 Posted January 5, 2020 They haven't developed and manufactured the Peleton model yet. It does all the work for you. Otherwise, they are just a bunch of fancy dust catchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's cheating, but I don't care. I used to have a bike like that. Same color, but the road version. Stiff fork. Get a carbon fork that has a rep for having a decent ride. It's a shame, Hutchinson used to make the perfect tire for that bike, the Profile U. I gave it to the bike shop guy that built up my Gunnar as a tip.

late Posted January 5, 2020 Share #14 Posted January 5, 2020 When I got a treadmill, I got a used gym treadmill that was in great shape, and had a tv, the Cybex 770T. Not wimpy. I was lucky enough to have a place that sold used gym equipment in the area, and that the area wouldn't support the kind of prices you'd see in a large city. It would have cost a grand more in a place like NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
