I really dont have much knowlege of the trainers having just had and used the same one for about a year being a basic old elite.

Also I know the weather is turning at last and why the hell would I be looking to use one, But gotta be honest I am training for an event in mid-june and I can get proper controlled sessions on a trainer in less time than being out on the road.

So what am I looking for?

Accurate read outs including power
being able to simulate hills ... resistant etc
quieter than what I have ( not that important though)
Sturdy enough pump out of the saddle

Been looking on the bay at I-magic things but seem a little OTT but kind of like the idea of actually doing a ride (not the visual effects) but flat, down hill , up hill etc etc rather than just riding at same resistance.

Any ideas of what would be suitable for me?

Cheers
