Those sure are cool ! kind of pricey though, it's hard to justify rollers that are 4times more expensive than My ol Cylclops tri-fold rollers......
They are cool. They allow you to ride like you really ride. Wait...
Well you know what I mean??

Thos are quite cool....and would lead to fewer crashes off the rollers when I try to sprint But $640 is a little steep!

That rider in the vid has an ugly ugly pedal stroke!!

They woudl keep me from shooting off the rollers, thats for sure.
Am I the only one who has never had a problem or an issue with falling(flying?) off rollers?
Nope. If I'm not paying attention my front wheel will go off the side, but then I just stop.reflux said:
I just like the idea that you could pretty much do anything at any intensity. The price isn't bad if you use it and are serious. I bought a spin bike a few years back to help me train in the winter...these are cheaper than that was.
I haven't had troubles in a long time, but when I first started riding rollers, I would watch bike videos and find myself starting to lean and sprint with them and would drive off the rollers without thinking!reflux said:
I Have a old set of rollers , bearing are shot. makes them very noisy. I also Have an OLd MAg trainer , I find my self using that more . that way I can go mindless, and watch the tube , or surf the web.
Ahh, that would by why I've never had problems. I have always ridden my rollers to music, nothing else. Perhaps I should continue to do so for my personal safety.TreeSaw said:
