Been looking at parting with my exercise/spinning bike in favour of a turbo trainer to use with my road bike.

Looking to spend upto £150, there seems to be quite a few in that price bracket but which is best, what should I be looking dont?

Thanks.

    I bought a chrono elite from Wiggle (on offer) with a £5 discount for signing up making £162

    http://www.wiggle.co.uk/elite-crono-hydro-mag-elastogel-trainer/

    I've not used it that much but I'm impresed with it so far - only thing is it doesn't come with a riser block for the front wheel (so I've put a few old cycling magazines under and it works fine)

    Its not £150 but its not much more..... :lol:
