They are a good price on probikekit at moment, anyone got one? Are they pretty quiet? Thats most important factor for me.

I've had one of these for over a year now. I bought it as it had the heaviest flywheel of the range, which according to some makes it more road like feel for riding.

The noise isn't that bad, I would happily use it in house. the noise is only loud if your rear wheel speed is very, very fast, and you have a high resistance. There are quieter models available for sure, this is a mag resistance unit, so like all mag units, they are not silent, but have better workout in the greater resistance range from nothing to impossible to turn (well nearly)
