I am looking for a good trainer, something in the 150 - 225 price range. the cheaper the better, i just want something like the elite reviewed at pez but without the added cost :roll: am i dreaming or is their a trainer like this, please let me know if it exist.

i would like some options, but i do not much about trainers - so whatever comes up here i will research, and make my final decision.

I too am looking for a reasonably price trainer but would like it to be a mag trainer.

Minora makes cheap trainers.

what do you guys think of Kreittler rollers? http://www.kreitler.com/rollers.htm

they are expensive, but does anyone here think they are worth it? i am looking at the Dyno-Myte with the 10" wide version.

Expensive but good. Every review from mtbr and roadbikereview seems excellent.
