Help.Me. Posted July 1, 2009 Share In the latest Bicycling under gear reviews there is an Cyclops Fluid 2 indoor trainer. Is there anybody using this product? or what other trainer would you recommend. I do mountain biking...and the winter is just killing me on the bike....

HammerHed Posted July 1, 2009 Share An AWESOME indoor trainer, I have used mine ro 2 years now and it offers a very smooth resistance. It is the best trainer out there because it has an exponential power curve, the harder you pedal the more the resistance is not as a straight line but as an exponential power curve, this mimics the natural resistance experienced when riding a bike from wind resistance and road resistance. The power you need to output to ride twice the speed is squared I believe, (my maths is terrible). You won't go wrong with this trainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minion Posted July 15, 2009 Share I went onto to Mtb reviews' date=' The cycleops fluid 2 got such crap reviews. They said the fluid leaks...Has any one had this happen to their Fluid 2?[/quote']I believe there was a problem with the seals on some of the earlier ones that's no been resolved. I have had close on 100 trouble-free hours on my Fluid 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
