I have a Kurt Kinetic fluid trainer that is collecting dust since we've picked up a spin bike for the house. Asking $150 (including riser) and would prefer local delivery/pickup (Summit County, CO, but I travel to the Front Range quite a bit).

ahh, I'm in the market to buy one but am in Canada! With shipping and duties it would probably cost the same as getting a new one...
2011 Specialized Ruby Comp, Specialized BG Lithia w/ hollow Cr-Mo rails
2009 Specialized Myka FSR, Specialized Windie 143
That's an awesome deal! Hopefully someone will snap it up quickly!!
Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...
Soooo tempting. I have a perfectly OK Cyleops but have wanted to try the Kurt. Live way south of you (Westcliffe/Custer County) but also get to Denver/Front Range regularly. If you don't sell it in the next week be in touch, I'll be headed to Springs/Denver the weekend after next...
Sit bones = ~135 mm, saddles that work ~ 155cm/6.1 in wide
2003 da Vinci (custom road/all-rounder)/Terry Butterfly Ti
1994 Gary Fisher Nirvana (vintage MTB/commuter)/Terry Butterfly Chromoly
1991 Terry Symmetry (NOS frame/fork, project in progress)
1973 Raleigh Super Course (project in progress)
This is a really good deal! I purchased one last season and it serves the purpose well.
I love the trainer (well, probably as much as you can love any trainer). This has become a real estate issue for us - we either store 2 bikes (1 44cm, 1 62 cm) and the trainer in a small house, or 1 spin bike that adjusts to fit both of us.
Just wanted to put in a plug for this trainer... I have one and I'm a big fan. Super solid, stable and smooth.
Do you guys use a trainer tire? Does it wear down your back tire if you don't?
I don't have a special tire that was designed for trainer use, but when I put one of the niches on the trainer for the winter, I switch out the regular rear tire with a tire from one of a few sets we didn't love on the road, either for durability, rolling smoothness or aesthetic reasons.
