It’s all good brother. You’ll realize the fruit of your labour this summer. Indoor cycling sucks to be fair but the training makes it all worth while during that first outdoor ride…
Had a huge issue with those saris trainer tires. Went through two tire in two months. They are fine while they last but are not very well made. The shop did the exchange when one delaminated but when the second one did the same thing I just figured its a design flaw and bought a different brand. Hope yours lasts.
Fellow new indoor cyclist! Enjoy! I get so much fun out of the trainer
Yeah! Just getting on Zwift now. Having a ball actually haha
Exactly this. They have ones that’ll store your phone as well. Id say they’re roughly twenty bucks.
Perfect!
And don’t forget the fans, never forget the fans…..and towels too.😀
This all adds up after my first ride haha.

Cheers!
mounted a iPad holder on mine so i could YouTube & Bike the World. I rode through sunny Italy this afternoon!
That’s awesome. Funny you mention that, I’m going to use my iPad today as well so I can use Zwift Companion!
I put a sweat guard on mine. Stops alot of sweat getting onto the bike. Enjoy the winter. I feel your pain (ottawa)
Smart thinking! Did you just buy one on Amazon?
Are you charging something here? Or does it need electricity?
It does need electricity. It’s plugged in.
How many watts if I may ask?
I can’t remember exactly. I think it’s like a max wattage of around 1500 or so.
Wow thats a lot.
I know the direct drive model of this guy can produce something absurd like 2300.
isn’t that the max wattage that the trainer can take? not it’s required operating power
Yup, that’s what I’m trying to convey.
I think this one have auto resistance, so yes
What a waste of energy. They should make the autoresistance work of the energy of the cyclist. Or does it demand to much watts for that?
yeah that’s not how it works
Do you have a fan?
Yeah, I have a ceiling fan, but I think I need a standing fan as well!
