After 20 years on my old road bicycle, I finally "upgraded" to a new hybrid. It is a Specialized Crossroads Elite (I moved from NYC to an area where there are many dirt trails) and love my new acquisition.
As the weather starts to turn cold I am contemplating buying a trainer. The bike shop I go to is recommending the CycleOps brand (with its quick release mechanisms). I've seen many in the stores and catalogs, including Performance Bicycle's Travel Trac line.
Does anyone have any comments or recommendations on what I should look for? Is the quick release mechanism a major difference? Are the various brands very different in quality?
Thank you in advance...
