Talk to me about rollers...

[ACiveE]

I have the E-Motion rollers. I've had them for 3 or 4 years. I cannot say enough good things about them.

In my searching, I've come across many of your posts. You seem to be quite happy with the rollers. Had you tried other rollers previously? OR trainers?



Are there the same wear and tear issue that you have on trainers on rollers? The bike isn't attached to anything so there shouldn't be any abnormal frame stresses... right?

My real hesitation is that I'm going to want more resistance than what I see most of the rollers have that some trainers can offer. Also the Kurt Kinetic/1ups/Cycleops run about $400-500 cheaper... so I'm trying to decide if the balance/natural of rollers outweighs the resistance/climbing aspect of trainers.

Has anyone used the KK Rock & Roll trainer? Supposedly imitates the feel of riding/rollers more accurately.

Thanks!
