Hey all

As the days get shorter, I'm getting more and more worried about keeping the ol' fitness up. I'm looking at buying a Turbo trainer and while I know it'as boring, in then years gone by, I spent many an hour on rollers so I'm sure the TT should be ok.

My main concern is the stress the bike comes under when attached to the TT. Has anyone found any decent info on the effects of a TT on one's bike ?

Just out of interest, how many of you use one and which model ?

I'm looking at getting the the basic Elite Volare Mag Lite trainer or Elite Mag Alu Trainer as I don't think one really needs all the bells and whistles.
