Which is the best turbo trainer to buy? and what sort of prices? How does a £100.00 turbo trainer compare to a more expensive one.

thanks

    Kurt Kinetic Road Machine - £250.

    Buy a £100 and afte a short time you will buy a better one - so money wasted.

    just got a tacx flow, which is their best seller....
    but the KK is hugely rated too.

    I have a Tacx i-majic - pricey but with the TTS software and real time video - and the ability to race your previous self it is the only way I would sit on a trainer and not get bored - check out the demo's on the web sites

    one word of caution - you will need a PC with a dedicated graphics card to run it though
