What the f@ck did you expect?

If you can only go for one, Ben, then go for a turbo. Preferably one that has a known good calibration curve on Trainer Road. Kurt Kinetic seems to be top of the list. I've got a mate who is in love with his KK Rock & Roll turbo 'cos the flexing it allows means you aren't trying to twist your lovely carbon frame about the rear spindle.

Oh, and sign up for trainer road, obviously. It keeps you honest.

I'll second the Kurt Kinetic recommendation, I've not got the rick & roll one, but the fluid resistance is very realistic.

Kk is on my shopping list. Just trying to decide on 4.5" or 3" rollers.

Picked up a set of the Antares over the weekend, and tried the TT bike out in them. A few 'issues' I initially, but didn't take too long. Haven't plucked up the courage to move the out of the doorway, but will do soon

Really do need to be smoothing them, the slightest off movement, and it's a wobble.
