Re: INDOOR trainer

Got ya covered dude! I bought a Minoura MAGT 850, 7 resistance settings,
complete w/EVERYTHING to fit 24 to 700c tires, AND the remote for changing
resistance on the fly. You only have to lower the right side legrest about
15 degress to fit it on the stand and tighten 'er up. I ride with my right
side down after spinning for a while and it doesn't affect my turns at
all(no foot dragging) but I don't wear shoes.

129 bucks. noticed the add did not mention 24" wheels but email and make
sure they do. Mine had an adapter in the box with directions as if it was
in ALL of them.
It is VERY stable. Designed excellent. My bro in law paid a fortune for
one of the TACX video trainers and it is sorta flimsy/ flexes a bunch.
Not this one! It also folds up making it easy to stick in the closet. I
also used it to build a front wheel for my XLTpro,lol. Makes a great truing
stand.
Bought quite a few d00dads from greenfish, likable bunch, fast delivery,
emails ya too. You want a pic of my hc in the stand? Holler, I'll post ya
some.
It gives you a SERIOUS workout too. You'll need a fan, no wind in your
face inside.
