Blackburn Trakstand Ultra Indoor Bicycle Trainer Overview |
| The new TrakStand Ultra features our patented CENTRIFORCE resistance unit with a centrifugal clutch for amazingly smooth, silent and progressive resistance that feels just like a hard road ride. And unlike magnetic and fluid trainers which lose speed quickly, CENTRIFORCE has a smooth rollout when coasting, so your pedal stroke feels more natural in the dead spots or when you ease up on the pedals. The Ultra also features adjustable height, which allows the rear wheel to be as close as 1/2" to the ground. No more phone book under the front wheel. |

I just purchase this product today locally. I wished I had checked Amazon more thoroughly because it is 25% less than what I paid locally.
I read the instructions (3 minutes), unboxed the trainer (2 minutes), had to change to the provided skewer to get my bike to fit (5 minutes), made adjustments (2 minutes), got dressed (2 minutes) and was riding. This was much easier to set up than I had imagined.
I am using this for rehab after shattering my tibia 3 months ago. My first ride was one hour spinning a 42 X 17. I really like the feel of this trainer. It feels much better than an excercise bike at the gym 'cause you are riding your personal bike. The resistance feels very good VS. my Minoura rollers with mag resistance. The one odd thing is the wheel slips on the polished aluminum drum of the resistance unit (RU) if your don't pedal smoothly.
Overall, I'm very happy with the unit. I was debating the $80 Bell Motivator. I'm glad I spent more for this because it is very well constructed, the skewer attachment is solid and it unit is silent. Also, you don't need a riser with this unit because the design can keep the real wheel 1/4 inch off the ground. |
Fantastic trainer! Sturdy, well designed, and a breeze to setup!

This is s wonderful product for those who want to train or exercise using their own bike. I wanted something easy to use and well made. I found it.
Now I can spin on my own bike then ride it on the rode when I want. No bulky indoor exercycles. Works great. |

| It's good, works great, I wrote more but this dialog box keeps erasing my review when I try to submit. Not noisey, and it's stable enough. |
