    Kind of stupid question

    Ok I have a potentially stupid question here, but here goes. I am looking into getting a trainer, as the stupid Washington weather isn't cooperating with me, and it's almost April, and we've gotten snow, and we're expecting more tonight, and I have a new bike and I wanna RIDE darnit!! So, here's my question...does the trainer fit different sizes of bikes? I am 5'2", and my husband is 6'2", adn my son is 5'7", and we all want to use the trainer. Is this an issue or not?

    Thanks for the input, and thanks for letting me vent about the weather!

    Yes, a trainer should fit all normal size adult bikes with 26-27" or 700c or 650c wheels. Might not work with a Bike Friday or other folder with 20" wheels.
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    Thanks. I'm going to go tomorrow and look at trainers. I was standing in my garage today gazing longingly at my bike as the wind blew, the temperature dropped, the clouds rolled in. Totally bummed, I went back inside. I'm so impatient!
