Hi, i am going to make a concerted effort to train indoors this winter as i always pick chest infections up pushing in the cold months plus who likes getting soaked to the skin. I have a power meter and am thinking of buying the above rollers and poss using in conjunction with Trainerroad as they have a resistance function and wondering if anyone has used them and can give me their feedback please.

    They are great rollers. easy to set up and store out of the way.

    make sure you have a spot so you can watch tv/laptop while spinning away and an easy reach wall/cabinet in case you need to stop quickly

    I have the ones without resistance & I wouldn't be without them.

    Even without resistance, you can have excellent training sessions.

    Highly recommended.

    I've got the digital version of the Arions, with power/cadence/resistance controllable by Bluetooth from the headset, they're a great training tool.

    I've got these and use them with TrainerRoad, there is a virtual power curve within the software for each resistance level.

    Mine are constantly set on the middle resistance and give me a good workout and are much better than a turbo, time passes much quicker it seems and I think this is just down to the concentration required to stay smooth. Also does wonders for pedal stroke.

    Wouldn't think twice about recommending them and I don't think I would spend much more on a set either. I have tried the E-Motions and I didn't get where the extra benefots were and how they can justify the extra cost.

    You won't be disappointed.
