I have loved, rode and built bicycles all my life. Now, being 73 years old with a very bad back, I need to keep in shape but can't ride in the open anymore. Can't stand exercise bikes, so have been using trainers with my Cannondale for the last 4 years. The disappointments I have had is that I couldn't find a trainer that lasted. Magnetics never give acceptable resistance and I have gone through 3 'name brand' fluid units; 1 wore out the bearings, 2 started leaking oil; all just after the warranty period expired. In desperation, because I absolutely needed the exercise, I decided to go for broke and get the best rated trainer I could find. The Kurt Kinetic won out. Bought one and set it up and had a problem with an out of balance flywheel. Expecting, as usual, a lot of static from the manufacturer, I called Kinetic about it. Had the most courteous and helpful assistance I have ever had for this kind of service. The people I spoke to were horrified about the problem. They immediately offered to send a NEW and TESTED resistance unit and a return box and label for the old one at THEIR expense so they could discover why the unit was not right. The new one arrived within 3 days and has been a dream to use. Kicking myself now for not finding out about Kinetic sooner.
This unit is absolutely wonderful; Really good resistance, really stable and tough. With the lifetime warranty and the kind of service Kinetic offers, will use this thing 'till I die. LOVE IT! BUY ONE, you won't be sorry! -- The Rolls Royce of trainers
I really like this unit compared to the Cyclops magnitrainer and fluid 2 trainer. Seems well made and almost like real riding. -- very nice
After years riding MTB, I am new to road biking and indoor training. Did my research and ended up purchasing this trainer because it uses fluid, but has a unique magnetic coupling to prevent future problems with leakage. So far, I am extremely pleased. The unit was easy to set-up, it is very smooth and quiet, and the resistance is very realistic. I highly recommend this product. -- High quality product
bought this as a 'refurbished' item. would never have known that if i hadn't been told. arrived packaged as new with all the accessories. full warranty in place. GREAT price! and we really USE it! excellent piece for winter workouts. we use a dirt bike instead of a road bike, so is noiser than advertised, but is still FAR less noisy than an indoor trainer we borrowed from a friend using a road-style bike. Husband didn't believe it could be until he heard it himself. Would definitely buy from this company again. -- works as promised!
This is a great indoor bicycle trainer. I got this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! It is good quality construction. It takes up just a little space when not in use. This is his first bicycle trainer, so we have nothing to compare this to, but rate this 5 Star. The price was $319, the quality is there. The Super Saver Shipping sure helps. -- Great indoor exercise!
