Lowest price I have seen for this cycle trainer with good reviews, ideal for a last minute present with c+c or to use in the New Year.
The additional 10% is deducted at the checkout no code needed
Possibly even cheaper if you have British Cycling membership

- Five levels of resistance allow you to tailor your training, ranging from a leisurely cruise to all out full throttle, and the resistance can quickly be adjusted from your handlebars.

Cheap as chips, although they are not advised if you intend on using this for good purposes.

I use one for occasionally training and racing using Zwift (2 months free with Strava Premium). It does the job for me but in no way can it be described as quiet.

I have a Carrera subway which I have fitted with slimmer profile tyres - 26" wheels I think they are 1.5" schwalbe city jet
how difficult will this be to set up with this? novice cyclist.

It should be easy enough. It should come with a different quick release which will fit the trainer but you really should get a turbo/trainer tyre as it'll burn out your normal tyre very fast (the part the tyre touches heats up as you use it so burns out a normal tyre).
Personally I keep a second rear wheel with a training tyre fitted so I only swap that out as and when rather than swapping tyre each time.

I've been toying with getting one for a while and decided to upgrade to the Elite Mag Force Elastogel pack at £99 which is also eligible for the 10% off as it should be slightly quieter than the basic model and wasn't much more once I'd added the bits in. Got one reserved at my local :smiley:

Thanks for this, just ordered a different model, the Elite Magnetic Force Trainer Pack for £63, My mum in law mentioned she bought this last week as a pressie for £89!!! So I ordered a new one, and we'll take back the £89 after Christmas. She's over the moon that I just managed to save her £26.

Is there much between the two to justify the price difference?
I'm about to buy.
Thanks.

I've not read the descriptions, but I believe the pack comes with whatever you need to hold the wheel on, which is around £12 by itself.

Disappointed..... Went to the shop and found that it won't work with 26 inch wheels. Clearly my legs are too short (but the body is too long....). It was a bikes only Halfords so I assume (!) that the assistant knew what he was talking about.

I have this working on 26" wheels without any problem at all
