BDF Posted May 19, 2016 Share I keep threatening to mount my tools like that ... but keep realising I need to get more tools first Makes working on bikes much easier. The rest of the tools are in the boxes underneath the worktop and in the "I LOVE YOU DADDY" cupboard! gummibear and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CogitoErgoSum Posted May 30, 2016 Share Serious envy from this side... I want a pain cave???? But will have to start from nothing So you need a basic road bike (don't have), a decent IDTwith software (don't have), a laptop (do have), and some sort of cadence/wattage meter? Is it possible to download training videos or is everything on the net (cloud based)? What would you guys recommend getting? Sorry, completely clueless regarding this...

Smart trainers typically have some form of internal method for measuring power, so you don't need a power meter. Going for a "dumb" trainer instead, a power meter would be very beneficial. Technically you can just ride in heart rate, but power is better if you're at all serious about this. Cadence is nice to have, along with heart rate. You can get sensors from someone like Wahoo. As die videos and such - some can be downloaded, some you stream. I typically use Trainer Road at the moment, which doesn't do videos out of the box, though you can apparently add third party videos. Haven't bothered with this myself. I just have the graphs and then Youtube or something playing next to it. CogitoErgoSum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planning to upgrade my 2012 mtb later this year. Was looking at having a semi-permanent setup. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my GT-I9505 using TapatalkNot sure what the significance of having a thru-axle is? If anything, quick release is easier, as you'll have to get the appropriate fitting to fit a thru-axle bike, which may or may not be a pain.

I have used a very cheap trainer before and didn't like the cups holding the quick release - too much external force on the axle.
