Product Description
The CycleOps Fluid 2 Training Kit is a great way to keep your legs in tip-top condition during the off season. While many cyclists dread the indoor training season, ensuring proper bike set up will make any workout more comfortable and enjoyable. This training kit features the Fluid 2 trainer, it has a new larger flywheel with twice the inertia for an improved, road-like feel. The power-band technology offers the widest resistance range--from easy spins to lung-burning climbs--without ever touching the unit. The infinite resistance curve ensures increased wattage as you increase speed for realistic statistical analysis at the end of your ride. The Fluid 2 is surprisingly quiet, and the self-cooling mechanisms--including a patented fan design--keep the unit performing better, longer. The kit also Includes a 36" x 65" CycleOps training mat to keep those sweat pools off your carpet or floor, a CycleOps bike thong sweat catcher to keep sweat off your bike, 2 CycleOps stackable riser blocks and a Real Ride Race Day training DVD to help keep you motivated during your indoor exercise.

Make every workout count with the Fluid2 winter cycling trainer, the most valuable weapon you can add to your indoor training arsenal. CycleOps' engineers designed the Fluid2 to capture a real road feel through the use of a 2.75-pound, individually precision-balanced flywheel and the company's exclusive PowerTuned technology.
 The Fluid2's PowerTuned technology makes it feel like you're riding on the road. |
PowerTuned technology isn't the only reason the Fluid2 excels. The trainer is made of sturdy 2-inch-round, 16-guage steel, with adjustable footpads that encourage stability no matter what surface you're on. It's also a breeze to load the bike thanks to the exclusive quick-load cam lever, which tightens the resistance unit against your bike with a single movement. The cam lever not only works instantly, but also retains the same resistance level as your last ride. And riders will love the folding legs, which help you store the Fluid2 compactly in a closet or under a bed. Other features include a training DVD, self-cooling mechanisms that keep the unit performing better and longer, and a lifetime warranty.

Since it is starting to get cold and I don't have the money to buy cold weather clothes, so i decided to invest a little money in a trainer. After extensive research, i decided to get the cycleops fluid2 mainly for it's high resistance power curve to improve myself for the spring season. After my first workout on the trainer, all i have to say is that this thing is a beast. I used the included Criterium workout that came with the trainer, and I couldn't go past the 4th largest cog for more than a minute near the end. Totally smoked from that workout, which is a good thing. The best part of the trainer is the fact that it has the quick release for when you're done with your workout. I haven't used a trainer with a knob, but it would probably suck cranking it tight enough for it not to slip. Setup was a complete breeze, except that there...

They didn't offer a good 'feel' for the road. Enter the CycleOps Fluid 2. This has a real road-like feel to it. It's hard to describe exactly what that is, but when you ride this unit versus cheap imitation models, you'll know it immediately. It doesn't "skip" during accelerations is the best way to describe it. Set up is super easy. Just make sure you have a metal skewer on your rear wheel, as the types your bike comes with are likely to crack. My box had one in it, so it was an easy swap. Next, screw the adjusting barrel to fit over your rear skewer, slide the yellow handle upward, and voila, you're done! To increase the tension, turn the yellow handle clockwise. It's that easy. After... Read more 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:  Pleased, By Cameron Wright (Portage, MI United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase The Cycle-Ops Fluid 2 is a great trainer. Easy to set up and use. I have not used other trainers, so I can't compare. The trainer is not at all loud, as I've heard others are. It is very stable and simple to set up and use. It's great to ride indoors during the winter (I live in Michigan), makes the winter go by faster! Takes a bit to get used to as it is different than riding on the road. You cannot "coast" as the trainer slows down very quickly. Although while pedaling the resistance is smooth and feels like really riding. I hate stationary bicycles, but this is my bike so that makes it totally different. Highly recommend this, definitely worth it and saves me from going to the gym to get a workout. |
