    HJ, I'm not sure. But you can't beat it for the price they're asking, especially when it goes to this cause. Same seller.

    Tacx makes some good stuff, but I don't have any personal experience with their rollers.

    [voice in the back of my head] How bad could you get hurt? [/end voice]

    You could get hurt to the tune of somewhere between $34 and $70.

    Missed that cheap roller auction.

    how's this?

    Also, using it on carpet is my only option. Is that a dealbreaker?

    no, but it's not as nice as a hard surface. Your kitchen is carpeted?

    Can you use a sheet of plywood under the trainer?
    It's idomatic, beatch.

    Yes, the kitchen is carpeted.

    I'll figure something out....maybe those plastic mat things used for office desk chairs.

    FWIW, on the same page as they list the CycleOps fluid trainer, they have the Performance brand travel trac century fluid trainer. Because I am cheap, I bought one of those and used it last winter, and it worked fine.
