Product Description

At cycleops, we realize at the heart of every cyclist is a better cyclist. Not better as defined by speed necessarily, rather by progress, improvement, the setting of goals and reaching them, and by having fun along the way. Coming from a manufacturer of indoor cycles and trainers, we understand that it may sound a little self-serving to say that a Trainer can and should be an integral part of this self-improvement journey. But it's true; trainers are extremely efficient and effective, and can be used throughout the year to help you reach your fitness goals. Add cycleops virtual training and indoor training no longer needs to be viewed as an act of basement torture. We'd even go as far as saying that indoor training can now actually be, well, fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pricey but I think you get what you pay for.

I'm glad I got the cassette with it. Great for indoor training. It's not nearly as noisy as I was led to believe. The resistance adjustor came apart after about a week, but it was easy to fix. There is one thing I can't figure out. My bike is set up in the basement and I have it on a rubber mat on the concrete floor. I've adjusted the legs of the CycleOps to the maximum extension. The bike still "leans" to the left a little bit. It doesn't affect my workouts but it's a little annoying.

Very good trainer it is relatively quite, easy to set-up, with good range of resistance. It is relatively heavy and difficult move when attached to a bike

Quiet exactly as advertised. No more fear of disturbing everyone else in the apartment building. Saves tires and feels more like riding on pavement

The Saddest Panda
5.0 out of 5 stars It's quieter and more stable than my Kurt Kinetic
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015
I upgraded from a Kurt Kinetic Road Machine 1.0 (before they started including the 8 lb flywheel).
I moved into a townhome with unfortunately thin walls and neighbors with light sleeping. They already complained once, so rather than double up the wall and ceiling thickness or install mass loaded vinyl, I changed the trainer. The Silencer did a good job of lowering the audible noise from where my head is while I ride, so I presume that the transmitted noise through the wall is below the annoying level.

Vs. the Kinetic, the noise on the Kinetic came from several points (ranked from loudest to quietest):
1. Tire rub on the trainer axle.
2. Turbulence in the fluid unit.
3. Chain on cogs, chainrings, and derailleurs.

Moving to the silencer removed the tire rub from the equation and changed the turbulence of the fluid unit to the friction/mechanical noise of the magnetic unit.

It's definitely quieter for me and the wide base gives me a more stable platform for standing sprints.

This makes me a happy panda.
