Sportneer Bike Trainer - Magnetic Stationary Bike Stand for 26-28" & 700C Wheels - Adjustable 6 Level Resistance Bike Trainer Stand for Indoor Riding with Quick Release Lever & Front Wheel Riser Block

A really first-class indoor trainer. Assembly was simple and easy; not much to assemble, really. Construction is solid and gives it a really professional appearance. There is plenty of weight to insure a stable platform. There are six settings for the magnetic resistance, and each setting produces a noticeable difference, whether up or down. Delivery included an extra quick-release that fits the mounts, in case your bike has different axles. The trainer fits my 700 x 25 wheels and tires perfectly. I am using smooth road tires, and there is no noise, only a slight, smooth vibration from the tire. I have owned several trainers over the years, and this is the best in all ways. Amazing quality for the price.

I love this trainer . Very well designed and easy to assemble. It does make a bit more noise than I had hoped but all in all well worth the money.

Easy to put together. Used for the first time and works well. Very sturdy and I'm 6', 250lbs. Great workout

Edit 03/16/2023: Their customer support and assistance is by far the best I have experienced! After a few more emails about the previous replacement unit they had shipped (see original review below), their support representative went way above anything I had expected and replaced the entire unit. The replacement is brand-new and works the way it should, quiet and smooth. Here's a company that really stand behind their product and is willing to work with a customer to make things right if given the chance. I certainly would purchase from them again. ---------------------------------------------------- Original review: Purchased this stand to get some exercise while the winter weather is too ugly to go outside. Never owned one before so I went for the less expensive unit. Works fine, easy set-up, easy to use, nothing fancy. Problem came up about 2 to 3 months (approx 400 miles) later. Thing got really noisy, not just the expected tire noise. It started whining with a really noisy rumble that turned into loud scream as things got worse. Cranking the pedals by hand to observe, I also noticed the resistance wheel was wobbly and just screaming along even at low RPM. Not cool after 3 months of use. So, very disappointed there. Contacted the seller by email and was very surprised to actually hear back from them within 24 hrs! A couple of emails back and forth to give them details they wanted and they sent out a replacement. Surprised again. Opened the box and noticed the unit had some wear marks on the aluminum roller. Hm. Used unit. Swapped out the old screamer with the replacement unit and it was quiet. Nice. I figured I let them know I wasn't too happy about getting a used one and the customer service rep got back within 24 hrs again and we figured things out. Let's see how long this one lasts. My opinion: The stand is ok for the price, nothing fancy, pretty basic. Quality is lacking, considering the resistance wheel (most likely bearings) died after 400 miles in less than 3 months. So, not too thrilled about the quality. Maybe 2 stars for that. Customer support: Now that's a very pleasant surprise and not what one would expect from any company. Not only a response within 24 hrs but actually making an effort to make things right. For that I would rate 5 stars. All in all - 4 stars, mainly because of their customer support. Would I buy another one from them if I were to look for another stand? No, not that particular model. But I would consider another model from them just for the customer support.

1) Whisper quiet. 2) Very stable ride. 3) When the bike is mounted on the trainer, it's easy enough to slide it around should the need arise. 4) Excellent 1-to-6 resistance settings (from Spinning to Steep Climb). 5) Initial setup is doable alone but a little awkward. Much better with a helper. 6) Although I leave my bike on the trainer permanently, switching back and forth from trainer-ride to road-ride would be easy enough to accomplish.

Great product so far (first day) . My gym is closed for the foreseeable future and I needed a way to do my regular low-impact cardio workouts. Normally I do 30 minutes on the cross trainer every other day. I need to get my heart rate up without putting too much stress on my sore knee and hip. I decided to give this stand a try. Today I got the best workout in months. much better than the cross-trainer sessions I am used to. I'm totally sold. I was worried that the larger leg motions of stationary biking might be uncomfortable for me but no problem. Between the bike gears and the variable magnetic resistance it was easy to find a setting that was challenging but not uncomfortable. To get on and off safely I needed to put some stools on either side - I'm an older guy with some balance and flexibility limitations. The stand is solidly built and the finish looks shiny and durable. Assembly was very easy. I looked at the directions a bit but assembly was really intuitive. There is a long cable extending from the stand to the handlebars and it could get tangled in a person's feet. I used some disposable fasteners to attach the cable to the frame of the bike. It's fairly quiet but I only gave it four stars for "Noise level" because it does make some noise. I don't know what to compare it to - I don't use the stationary bikes at the gym. I'll post a follow-up if I encounter any difficulties.

It works just fine yet it is noisy. I didn’t expect it to be so loud.

The box arrived in good condition and no parts were missing. The assembly instructions aren't great but aren't bad, and there's very little assembly so not a big deal. When I first mounted my mountain bike and started riding I was shocked by how loud it was. I'm not sure I would have continued using the trainer at that volume. Also, the action felt a little jerky to me at first, but it was the first time on any bike trainer for me so anything was going to be a step down from road riding. The next day I ordered a slick tire (26" WTB ThickSlick Comp tire) and OMG what a difference - the volume dropped by at least 70%. I also got used to the feel of the resistance and the pedaling became smoother for me. To get a good 30-minute workout I have to put my bike in the highest gear and fluctuate the resistance dial between the top 3 settings (4-6). I'm a 57 year-old moderate athlete, so someone in really good shape might not be as happy with this trainer. The jury is still out regarding durability and tire wear, but so far so good.

Our family now owns four of these trainers. I have one at my place, and one at the house of my mom and her husband, where there is also one for each of them. Both my mom and her husband are seniors, and stability, safety, and ease of use were critical. They are also very different physically - my mom is pretty tiny, and her husband is tall and has a bigger frame to match. This trainer works great for all of us. It can be a bit fiddly to install the very first time, to make sure you get the bike securely mounted. But follow the (clear) directions and it's easy. It's then quick and easy to take the bike in and out as needed. When I ride outside, I just leave the Sportneer axle in place. They do make a bit of noise, but are MUCH quieter than others I have experienced. Putting them on a mat or carpet, as recommended, helps a lot. We had an issue with one, and Sportneer provided EXCELLENT customer service. I am recommending these enthusiastically to friends and families.

Arrived on time - within 4 days. Easy to set up with instructions included. It is well built and strong. I am strengthening muscles around my knee and this is perfect for steady pedalling with some resistance, but not a huge amount, as per physio instructions. I imagine if you are a serious cyclist (I am not) it wouldn’t be enough. I am very happy with the item and recommend it.

Le produit est arrivé dans les délais prévus. Emballage ok . Montage en 10 mn Effectivement il vaut mieux des pneus route que TT car en pédalant il y’a un sifflement mais avec un pneu route sur mon vélo de course c’est supportable et on peut écouter sans gêne un podcast ou autre … Il ne me reste plus qu’à pédaler

I was looking for a cheaper turbo trainer than Halfords versions. I opted for the Sportneer Magnetic version. I was a little worried it might not fit my 700 x 23C wheels but on arrival it was no problem to install. I bought the Amazon recommended speed and cadence sensors and the bike computer. All items team up perfectly and I was up and cycling in no time. The slot where the skewer fits on the skewer handle side does not seem to fit the handle snuggly in the cutouts for the handle as it seems to bottom out. But it is tight enough not to move after adjusting the thread. In low gears ( big cogs) the noise is very quiet on the minimal tread tyres on my racing cycle. As you go into higher gears you do get vibration and more noise but it’s not a problem for me. I have yet to try my turbo tyre to see if it’s any different. The bike is very stable in use and the adjuster 1 - 6 works well. I don’t know if the fluid version is much different to the magnetic but for the cost of the turbo trainer I think it is very good value for money and more than adequate for my needs. Well pleased with speed of delivery and item quality. The instructions were clear with photographs and in EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, JP and Safety Warnings in EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, NL, PL, SE, TR, JP, but close ups of a bike skewer fitted correctly would help. The instructions also come with photographs for a thru axle fitment but only the skewer arrived with the trainer. I guess you need to contact the seller if you want to use it with a thru axle or see if Amazon supply a thru axle version. The photo on the Amazon page which shows whether the turbo trainer will fit your bike is a little unclear and could be improved to cater for all prospective buyers and clear wheel sizes.

Très bien pour le prix à l air très solide
