Yaheetech Fluid Bike Trainer Stand-Indoor Bicycle Training Stand for Mountain & Road Bike-Portable Foldable Cycling Training Stand w/Fluid Flywheel,Quick-Release,Riser Block & Noise Reduction

Used it 4 times now and it's working good.Reasonably quiet, but it's the hub locking clamp that's really solid.It locks well on the supplied bike quick release, so make sure it'll fit with the bike you're going to use.It doesn't have adjustable resistance but I find just using the bikes gears can raise and lower the effort.

After you get it together then setup is easy. Not put that many miles on the thing. We got few hours sitting on the bike. I like front wheel thing. I watch video when riding so when I see curve I naturally want to turn. It will slid or let me turn it a little. You don't want buy front wheel thing by it's self if notice price of those. Get a kit. Yes there is some noise so use volume button and turn up TV. I don't adjust Stand. Set it like you want and forget it. Bikes have gears if you want do that, which be more real! I don't want ride outside with ski mask to keep my face from being frozen. This is helping me keep in shape.

My old trainer was showing its age, so I decided to get a new one. This one was pretty cheap but had good reviews, so I got one.First of all, as others here say, the assembly instructions are atrocious. However, YouTube came to the rescue. I pulled up one of several videos, and only needed about a minute to figure out how to proceed.I was thinking I would have to wait until winter to use this, but some recent rains required using it for a few days.The first thing that struck me was how quiet this is, hardly any noise at all. Also, and probably related, is how smooth riding is. I think the smoothness can trick you into thinking it’s easier than it really is. The stand seems well made, and promises to stand up well.One minor quibble: the adjustment screws fits into a depression on a cylindrical metal piece. It’s only held in place by pressure from the tire, and without the bike, will almost certainly drop out of place. Not much problem for me: I have a dedicated bike that stays put on the stand, but if you’re using your main steed, could be an issue. Perhaps using some rubber bands could hold things in place.

I haven't put a ton of miles on this yet but it is sturdy and a very good value. The instructions are kind of sketchy but an easy assembly overall. The noise level is decent and would be easy to tune out with some headphones or earbuds, and of course the noise will increase as you add tension either with the adjuster or by changing gears. This is my first trainer so I have no way to compare to others, however.It would be nice to have a tension (resistance) adjuster that could mount on the handlebar but you can vary the resistance by just shifting the gears; otherwise, to change it you have to dismount and turn the resistance knob on the back of the trainer. The unit is sturdy and you can ride hands-free without worry of the bike tipping over. There are several trainers on Amazon that do have a handlebar-mounted resistance adjuster.The trainer comes with the front tire support and a skewer (that holds the rear tire on the frame) that replaces the one on the bike to allow the trainer to lock properly and tightly onto the skewer nuts. It may be possible to lock it onto your existing rear tire skewers as per the instructions if they fit; in my case I'm using an older, heavier bike that I will just leave attached with the included skewer for best fit and stability. There is nothing needed to buy to use this trainer that is not included in the package.A couple of assembly tips:1. there are 2 similar looking parts numbered 8 and 11 in the instructions., Number 8 has a hole through it and #11 has and indent but not a full hole. 8 is used early in the assembly, the tension adjustment "screw", part 6, fits through it.2. Near the end of the assembly part 11 is used; this part is where the end of the adjustment screw (part 6) fits against. When you place part 11, tighten part 6 just enough to hold 11 in place. This is not in the instructions and part 11 will keep falling out as it is difficult to stabilize later...not a big deal, just inconvenient.3. there is a hollow black plastic "cup" included with the parts that is not shown or mentioned in the instructions. This fits over the tension screw handle to make it easier to turn.

Yes, the instructions arent stellar, but just pay attention and youll be fine.Took me less than 1 hour to install this and start biking. Total knee replacement 6 weeks ago and thisallowed me to ride in the winter without having to buy a statinary bike. LOVE IT.MAKE SURE YOUR REAR WHEEL HAS A QUICK RELEASE OR THIS WILL NOT FIT.

I work from home and my back has terrible knots so I can't stand up straight for too long. Still, I don't want to sit down on the couch all day long so I tried a treadmill. It hurt too much. I lasted maybe 5 minutes at a time. I have an elliptical. I could not make that work either. I got this and I got a comfy seat for my bike and I could ride the bike all day long if I wanted to. I don't have the resistance very high. I do have to ride on my tippy toes if I go at a slow pace or it doesn't keep a steady pace. That is probably partly me.I hooked this up with my husband. 2 people makes it go much easier. He struggled a little but it wasn't too bad. It is smooth. It is not very loud at a moderate pace. I did not try a very fast pace. I wouldn't go on a zoom call while riding. It is too loud for that. It would probably be close to the sound of a dishwasher running.If you want something cheap that does what it should, this fits the bill. I expect it to last forever. It is solid and strong. I am very happy I bought this. Now, I just need to figure out a laptop stand.
