    Given the miserable weather I am slowly coming round to the idea of a turbo trainer.

    I don’t want to spend loads as I prefer to be out than indoors but at little over 70 quid at Merlin, is this worth the money?

    Any owner experiences?

    Hi,

    Well, Cadence use Genius Multiplayer, the latest generation of turbo trainer from Tacx.

    The Genius has a wireless motor brake with a computer-driven flywheel that generates high power at low speeds. This makes climbing of hills and mountains even more realistic.

    I attach photos so you can see.

    As i say, it is worth trying to see at least how it feels to use one.

    Hi Super Domestique,

    I would advice you to go first to Cadence Performance in Crystal Palace (South London) to try one up there. And then you choose what to do.
