Magnet Steel Bike Bicycle Indoor Exercise Trainer Stand
Indoor Bike Trainers can add an extra dimension to your training. It helps convert your outdoor bike into an indoor biking set up, thereby enabling you to continue training in the harsh, cold winter months.
The rear wheel of your bike is attached to the bike trainer, in order to hold it still, as the rear wheel spins on a roller on the trainer. The roller produces resistance that is based on the force with which you pedal against.
As there is resistance, this can be adjusted to increase and decrease the effort required to pedal, thereby reproducing the feeling of cycling on the roads in real life, to recreate climbing, sprinting, and just cruising along as closely to the real deal as possible.
The Magnet Steel Bike Trainer is a magnetic trainer that offers effective indoor training in a strong and well-supported steel frame. The Magnet Steel Bike Trainer can be set up with almost any bike (be it an outdoor or a mountain bike). Continued pedaling causes the internal magnet to create resistance. This resistance can be changed from your handle bars for up to five levels.
