Wanted: Turbo Trainer!

    Probably a long shot but I'm looking for a relatively cheap magnetic trainer. I had an old Gist which I had for donkeys years before the unit and lever gave up. It was cheap and I'm lookimg for a cheap replacement (for days like this!). Nothing fancy just that it has a lever for the bars.

    Something like the Elite range or even another Gist. I could manage a Tacx providing it comes with a bar lever if under e100. Must be in good working order etc...

    Cheers.

    Hi,

    I have a Taxc Serius, i am not using and was going to advertise, which should meet your needs. Works perfectly / little use.

    Was going to to advertise for €115/120 but would take €100, let me know if you are intersted.

    Hello kebel,

    Yeah, looks good. How old and does it have the skewer? Where are you based?

    Thanks.

    Yes, I have the skewer that came with along with an adapter kit that allows you use a smaller (MTB wheel or the like I think).

    Was bought a couple of winters back when we had the heavy snow as I couldn't get outdoors, apart from that and about 5-6 weeks light use when recovering from a broken collar bone, it hasnt seen much use, as I much prefer to train outdoors.

    The beaing are silky smooth and the resistance unit work perfectly, which you will be able to see for yourself. The is some scuffing on one side of the lower frame, which happened while transporting it in the car one time, but this purley cosmetic.

    Am working in Dublin Mon-Thurs but travel a bit as well so maybe able to meet elsewhere if needed. where are you? PM me with your details if you want to arrange a meeting, and I will contact you tomorrow.

    Cheers
