Ricky6 Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Hi guys, I am a newbie and looking to purchase a second hand indoor trainer. Nothing too technical. I have my eye on either a Giant Cyclotron or a CycleOps Fluid. Any recommendations or are these pretty much the same. Thanks.

scotty Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Makro has as well. https://www.makro.co.za/sports-outdoor-travel/sports/bicycles/bicycle-accessories/mag-indoor-trainer/p/0c742a1d-c0d1-4509-9e1b-f7da82d871da https://www.makro.co.za/sports-outdoor-travel/sports/bicycles/bicycle-accessories/raleigh-indoor-bicycle-trainer-/p/000000000000330136_EA
shaper Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 If you ever decide to move onto zwift with your training/spinning, make sure whichever trainer you choose is compatible with their list https://zwift.com/hardware Giant Cyclotron is if one of the ones listed and you will have to go the Cycleops fluid2. Of the two, i would go the fluid2
BicyclePower Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Consider the Fluid with speed sensor, this is R3 995.00 and i think we have 1 unit left in stock. As explained in previous posts the trainer will not automatically adjust resistance however will give you a power reading. this is the basis for measuring improvements.
