Sportneer Bike Trainer - Magnetic Stationary Bike Stand for 26-28" & 700C Wheels - Adjustable 6 Level Resistance Bike Trainer Stand for Indoor Riding with Quick Release Lever & Front Wheel Riser Block

Edit 03/16/2023: Their customer support and assistance is by far the best I have experienced! After a few more emails about the previous replacement unit they had shipped (see original review below), their support representative went way above anything I had expected and replaced the entire unit. The replacement is brand-new and works the way it should, quiet and smooth. Here's a company that really stand behind their product and is willing to work with a customer to make things right if given the chance. I certainly would purchase from them again. ---------------------------------------------------- Original review: Purchased this stand to get some exercise while the winter weather is too ugly to go outside. Never owned one before so I went for the less expensive unit. Works fine, easy set-up, easy to use, nothing fancy. Problem came up about 2 to 3 months (approx 400 miles) later. Thing got really noisy, not just the expected tire noise. It started whining with a really noisy rumble that turned into loud scream as things got worse. Cranking the pedals by hand to observe, I also noticed the resistance wheel was wobbly and just screaming along even at low RPM. Not cool after 3 months of use. So, very disappointed there. Contacted the seller by email and was very surprised to actually hear back from them within 24 hrs! A couple of emails back and forth to give them details they wanted and they sent out a replacement. Surprised again. Opened the box and noticed the unit had some wear marks on the aluminum roller. Hm. Used unit. Swapped out the old screamer with the replacement unit and it was quiet. Nice. I figured I let them know I wasn't too happy about getting a used one and the customer service rep got back within 24 hrs again and we figured things out. Let's see how long this one lasts. My opinion: The stand is ok for the price, nothing fancy, pretty basic. Quality is lacking, considering the resistance wheel (most likely bearings) died after 400 miles in less than 3 months. So, not too thrilled about the quality. Maybe 2 stars for that. Customer support: Now that's a very pleasant surprise and not what one would expect from any company. Not only a response within 24 hrs but actually making an effort to make things right. For that I would rate 5 stars. All in all - 4 stars, mainly because of their customer support. Would I buy another one from them if I were to look for another stand? No, not that particular model. But I would consider another model from them just for the customer support.

Great quality. Fully assembled and easy to attach bike! Very sturdy. Small footprint for storage.

The machine arrived quickly, was well-packed, and was very easy to assemble. It is a very solid unit. The resistance adjuster works as intended: I experience more resistance on high settings and lighter resistance on low settings, which contradicts issues noted by some other reviewers. My only minor concern is the noise level, which is quite loud. However, once you become accustomed to it, it is manageable. I used the machine the day it arrived and had a training experience comparable to, if not better than, what I get at the gym. Overall, I am very happy with the quality and price of the product.

Received it yesterday and set it up this morning. Very sturdy but I need a step to get into my bike. 5 stars for easy set up great instruction but no instruction on how to use the resistance. Resistance controller was set at 6 from the manufacturer, I tried to turn it to 1 but it was hard and I could only manage to turn the knob to 3. I tried pedaling while turning the resistance knob but it also was not working. Also, I think mine is defective since I didn’t feel any difference at all. I sent my inquiry to Sportneer and will wait if they can offer insight. If no response I will need to send it back. I need this for my bad knee and being able to change the degree of resistance will help increase the chance of recovery. **Edit: Sportneer responded to me within a day. It turned out the resistance controller can’t be wound around the frame. The knob works well now, however, the resistance is very minimally felt between 1 and 6. I am using the bike’s own gear to adjust resistance. Great customer service.

Great product so far (first day) . My gym is closed for the foreseeable future and I needed a way to do my regular low-impact cardio workouts. Normally I do 30 minutes on the cross trainer every other day. I need to get my heart rate up without putting too much stress on my sore knee and hip. I decided to give this stand a try. Today I got the best workout in months. much better than the cross-trainer sessions I am used to. I'm totally sold. I was worried that the larger leg motions of stationary biking might be uncomfortable for me but no problem. Between the bike gears and the variable magnetic resistance it was easy to find a setting that was challenging but not uncomfortable. To get on and off safely I needed to put some stools on either side - I'm an older guy with some balance and flexibility limitations. The stand is solidly built and the finish looks shiny and durable. Assembly was very easy. I looked at the directions a bit but assembly was really intuitive. There is a long cable extending from the stand to the handlebars and it could get tangled in a person's feet. I used some disposable fasteners to attach the cable to the frame of the bike. It's fairly quiet but I only gave it four stars for "Noise level" because it does make some noise. I don't know what to compare it to - I don't use the stationary bikes at the gym. I'll post a follow-up if I encounter any difficulties.

very solid with no wobbly. easy to set up. noise level if your watching tv with background music you cant hear it but if its just talking you can. however the resistance on the one i got was either defective or was such small change i could not tell the difference.

Le produit est arrivé dans les délais prévus. Emballage ok . Montage en 10 mn Effectivement il vaut mieux des pneus route que TT car en pédalant il y’a un sifflement mais avec un pneu route sur mon vélo de course c’est supportable et on peut écouter sans gêne un podcast ou autre … Il ne me reste plus qu’à pédaler

I was looking for a cheaper turbo trainer than Halfords versions. I opted for the Sportneer Magnetic version. I was a little worried it might not fit my 700 x 23C wheels but on arrival it was no problem to install. I bought the Amazon recommended speed and cadence sensors and the bike computer. All items team up perfectly and I was up and cycling in no time. The slot where the skewer fits on the skewer handle side does not seem to fit the handle snuggly in the cutouts for the handle as it seems to bottom out. But it is tight enough not to move after adjusting the thread. In low gears ( big cogs) the noise is very quiet on the minimal tread tyres on my racing cycle. As you go into higher gears you do get vibration and more noise but it’s not a problem for me. I have yet to try my turbo tyre to see if it’s any different. The bike is very stable in use and the adjuster 1 - 6 works well. I don’t know if the fluid version is much different to the magnetic but for the cost of the turbo trainer I think it is very good value for money and more than adequate for my needs. Well pleased with speed of delivery and item quality. The instructions were clear with photographs and in EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, JP and Safety Warnings in EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, NL, PL, SE, TR, JP, but close ups of a bike skewer fitted correctly would help. The instructions also come with photographs for a thru axle fitment but only the skewer arrived with the trainer. I guess you need to contact the seller if you want to use it with a thru axle or see if Amazon supply a thru axle version. The photo on the Amazon page which shows whether the turbo trainer will fit your bike is a little unclear and could be improved to cater for all prospective buyers and clear wheel sizes.

Product is robust and easy to install and is working well so far. I had trouble fixing the steeper knob on the bike handlbar though as knob clamp does not look fixable in all handlebars. You may end up fixing it elsewhere and not on the bike handlebar itself

The frame is very solid and holds the bike firmly. Setup was easy. Under load at moderate pace the noise level was acceptable. Certainly not distracting or annoying. At a higher pace noise level increased but again was not annoying (did not exhibit high pitch whine). I would suggest in a highly reverberant room noise level would be annoying especially at higher rates of peddling. I have mine setup outside so noise not an issue. If you were sharing a space indoors the other person would find it annoying. As a rough guide imagine the sound from a hand held cake blender. For the money you can't complain. I would suggest if noise is a concern perhaps look to the more expensive units.

Si quieres un rodillo calidad precio este es el tuyo. Yo estoy muy clntento con el. La nota negativa es que hace ruido el rodillo como todos pero para hacer deporte vale y funciona muy bien, asi que adelante.
