Ascent Fluid Indoor Bicycle Trainer Review

Bring your indoor workouts to new heights with the Ascent Fluid Trainer – the perfect purveyor of quiet, smooth resistance on a rock solid frame. The fluid resistance unit provides a progressive, high intensity workout that will have you feeling the burn in no time. That’s the beauty of the fluid unit – there’s no need to worry about clamping a lever to your handlebars to adjust resistance as you simply use your bike’s gears plus vary your pedaling RPMs to vary the workout intensity. It really does replicate what it feels like to ride outside! And it’s quiet enough that you can enjoy whatever media you prefer while training without having to jack up the decibels to overcome an incessant, irksome drone. It comes fully assembled out of the box, so just put the skewer in your rear wheel (the included rear skewer is optimized to fit into the fluid trainer’s support cups – what you have already may not fit), clamp your bike into the frame and start pedaling away. This fluid trainer is perfect for indoor training at home when weather or lack of daylight puts a damper on riding outdoors and it’s also portable enough to be the perfect means for getting warmed-up and ready to rock at a race. Fluid resistance unit utilizes a steel flywheel to create a smooth, road-like feel for your indoor cycle training workouts Steel frame folds to a compact size making it easy to store or transport Rubber feet dampen noise and vibration Includes a steel quick release skewer
