Fan for turbo training?

on-yer-bike

I may have to start using the turbo in the summer. Is it worth buying a Dyson tower fan or a much cheaper traditional blade fan? Right now the fan would also get general use too.

Why bother shelling out for some of that Dyson overpriced nonsense, just get a decent tool from the trade:

I have the 18" floor one, blows the logos off my replica team kit.

always cheaper ..... you need it to do 1 job and that's blow air, lots of it, at you !

get the biggest one that will fit in the space ... if you have money to throw around, consider one with a remote ... but ultimately just get something that shifts a lot of air

I paid £35 for an 18" floor-standing "gym fan". Works beautifully. The one I bought appears to have been discontinued, but this is similar: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Q-Connect-Spee ... 00779Q0CY/.

I bought one from Screwfix a few weeks back for £30 - three settings not ever got past one as it's plenty powerful !

Can be had for £21 at Argos.

Be careful where you place it though. If it's in front, you're always riding into the wind, and if it's behind you, you're only cheating yourself,
