    The weather is changing for the worse. I expect to be training a lot more indoors. Can anyone recommend which turbo-bike or rollers I should get?

    Thanks in advance.

    150 yoyos?
    If you know a bike shop that sells affordable, I'd love to hear about it...

    Minoura B60-R or Tacx Blue Matic are too good options at that price point. Rollers tend to be about the €180 euro mark and probably may not be what you are actually after unless you are sure you want rollers.

    Sorry to hijack the thread but I am looking at the Minoura B60 myself but I have a question. My bike like all bikes on the roads today has quick release pins for the wheels and these turbo trainers will not clip on to the quick release pin due to one side of the pin being flat.

    Do these trainers come with a standard pin in the box or must one be bought separately?

    Sorry if this is a stupid question.

    The Minoura B60 comes with one. I don't know if others do but would guess mostly yes.

    I looked into it a couple of months ago and ended up going with

    "€185.53 1 x Elite Crono Fluid ElastoGel Trainer"

    from wiggle
