I do lots of indoor training because of work and family commitments and I have a PowerTap on my trainer bike. I'm looking at getting a new trainer and am very ken on the Kurt Kinetic Rock and Roll as it has a massive flywheel and the rock and roll system is apparently very much like riding on the road.
However, I have also been eyeing up trainers you link to a computer like the Tacx Fortius or Computrainer. Has anybody ridden these computerised trainers and got any comments on the inertia of the system? Lots of my training is steady state threshold or sweet spot stuff so having an enormous flywheel appeals to me. I have a DVD player and telly in the garage so entertainment isn't an issue.
I was just wondering how the computerised trainers feel compared to the inertia and supposed realism of a Kurt Kinetic machine.
Thanks
