I have a spin bike. I used to have a wind trainer which worked nice but was pretty loud/noisey.

Urlea - I have a cyclops fluid also and I paid less than that at our LBS
Who is the local shop in Fargo? Have you tried Scheels?
good luck on whatever you decide on
I like mine too because it is pretty portable and easy to set up.
I have been taking it to a fellow riders house 1x per week where we do a spinerval together - much less pain for some reason even if I am loading my bike/trainer and hauling them around in -20 F weather - go figure
(It is the only time the hammer guys don' t drop me
I ride the spin bikes too but I like my own bike on a trainer better
It's about the journey and being in the moment, not about the destination
I have an older trainer... it's a Cateye CS-1000. Although I own others, I still prefer this one. I bought this in 93/94 season and it has been a great trainer. It offers speed, time, calories burned, watts, and the ability to climb between a 1-10% grade. It is a bit louder than some of the newer models, but it's still my favorite.
I own a Cycleops Fluid2 trainer.
I have really considered getting rollers to work on the balance component you get from that.
I would LOVE to have a Spinning bike. *sigh* I don't think I have been 'good' enough for Santa to bring it though...
Just additional info if you don't know this already...
Rear wheel trainers are notorious for eating up tires. Lots of folks save old tires with a bit of life left in them to switch out for inside. FWIW.![]()
DBF just got me the Cycleops Mag+, but I haven't used it yet. I just opened it yesterday!
