Oct 28, 2015 at 15:21 | comment | added | Zlatty | @Batman - the little Garmin sensor is too wide for my back tire, and sits on the front. If I were to use a trainer or roller, it would not record my speed. I would like to record my workouts and use my Garmin for it. | |
Oct 28, 2015 at 12:31 | comment | added | Batman | What do you mean "cannot fit the little rubber Garmin tracker thing"? There are plenty of little cycling computers you can just bolt to your bike (some with ant+) to use on any trainer. | |

Oct 28, 2015 at 7:41 | comment | added | PeteH | well you basically have a choice of a turbo trainer or rollers, but each gives you something different in terms of training. It sounds like you're talking about a turbo, in which case you should see what is available for your budget....bearing in mind you can pay thousands for whizz-bang virtual reality machines | |

Oct 28, 2015 at 5:00 | comment | added | Móż | Product recommendations are generally off-topic here because the answers go out of date so fast. If you can edit it into "what features should I look for" you might get away with it, but even that's likely to be opinion-based and more suitable for one of the biking forums. | |
