    for 6 weeks please. as lightweight/transportable as possible. will be used for pre and post race warm-ups and downs. never get the use of them at home so can't justify buying another set - had a wahoo kickr but sold it!

    thanks.

    I have a Tacx Vortex lying idle at home. It's a smart trainer so while it will work without power (therefore usable for pre-race warm ups), you won't be able to control resistance effectively. I'm looking to get rid of it rather than lend but can let it go for a reasonable fee if you're interested.

    thank you

    happy to rent it for the short term and discuss options at the end of the period. likely it will be as unused through the winter in my house as my commute is the extent of my training, summer or winter. let me know what you value it at now.

    I might be interested in it longer term, preferably after summer somewhat conveniently. Depending on the budget (buying a house and getting married, so I emphasise budget) this might work out between the three of us...

    I've a set of Tacx Antares rollers I bought second hand on here a couple of years ago and have literally never used, in case they're of interest. Would prefer to get rid of them also but happy enough to let them go for a few weeks either. Am based in D5 btw.

    I've also got a set of the same rollers that are sitting in my shed, unused for the past few years - if the other deal doesn't work out for you

    Just in case, I have an Elite Turbo Muin ( the basic one way smart direct drive one)
    You can have it for the rest of racing season but I’ll take it back in October.

    Now you are spoiled for choice!

    thanks for all your responses folks, all very sound.

    think i have it now sorted with Mr Spuckler for collection Saturday morning.
