As a convert to rollers, I have to say that I like them. A lot. The whole balance thing has been very good for me to focus on. I have a ways to go before I approach graceful technique (I can stand, but can't ride no-handed yet). I suspect the trainer will collect dust this winter.

I've never ridden off the edge, or flown off anything. It took me a while to get a clue about using a stepstool, though. You think I would have caught on earlier given that my rollers have 4" drums.

To me, the rollers do not have "road feel". My personal experience is that the only thing that feels like riding on the road is...riding on the road.
