Turbo trainer advice

Fearnie

Any recommendations for budget turbo trainers? How good are magnetic ones compared to fluid and are they relatively smooth. I am limited to approximately £100 but want the best possible. Many thanks.

I have the Cycleos Mag trainer, and to be honest it is good value for money. Easy to set up, smooth running on the wheel, and only slightly noisy (not having had any other type of trainer, can't compare) from the fan type flywheel. For about £25 you can convert it to a Mag+ by buying the remote cable. I have had mine for about a year now, and it has seen plenty of use without any problems.

The Tacx sirius is excellent value at approx £105 from a well known on line retailer with 20% off in November so you'll have to hurry
