Hi there,

I've been asked to look for a good deal on parabolic rollers / a trainer for a friend. I've never bought any of this kit before and wondered if anyone has any advice.

Looking to spend around £100 or so - basically after a good deal.

Are the frame and clamp style turbo tainers with the magnetic brake any good or are rollers much better?
At the moment it's between these two:

Any advice would be really useful - ta.
