Strengths: Stability, versatility and upgradeability.Weaknesses: Computer display is very limited. I would like to see HR, cadence and watts only two lines of the display can be changed. I use my Garmin for HR and the trainer computer for cadence and watts.Bottom Line: I bought this because I'm recovering from an Achilles tendon rupture and felt very uneasy about using my rollers this winter. I did a fair amount of research and decided on the Tacx and I'm happy I did. It seems very solidly built and stable. Being able to upgrade to Fortius capabilities is also a plus, although I may never do it. I also like that it comes standard with the front wheel lift instead of needing to order that part separately.

Strengths: Watts, HR, Cadence, variable resistance, quiet, tough.Weaknesses: Can really only simulate between 0 and 5 degree hills realistically. It can go lower or higher, but the road feel is wrong.Bottom Line: Just thought I'd say a few words since there weren't any reviews. I've used this trainer for 4 years and it's held up admirably. It reads out power and HR, calibrates power pretty well, has variable resistance, and has a decent road feel.
Favorite Ride: Tapia
Price Paid:
$400.00
Purchased At: Supergo
Similar Products Used: CycleOps fluid, fluid+ (blew up 3 before the most recent incarnation)
Bike Setup: I usually use my cheapo Alu TT bike on the trainer.
