Hi,

For the past few years I have been a 3 season rider, this year I want to maintain riding through the winter.. indoors. So in prep I have cleared out my garage and now I want to source a Turbo Trainer or Rollers. Thing is I know precious little about them as none of my riding mates use them and they don't often get raised as a topic of conversation.

So in short, I would like to know, in general, if a TT or rollers would suit me best. I am guessing rollers promote a better riding style but I am not sure what advantages either one has over the other (e.g. noise, ease of use, effectiveness, training options).

I am also aware that there are different technologies at work with the TT's. Is there anything I should avoid? What kind of money do I have to spend before getting some kit that will be effective and keep me going for a good few winters?

Anyone gone through a similar experience?

Cheers

Mike
