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

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

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.

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.

I got it last Tuesday (Oct 23 '18), and so far everything works correctly, it even surpassed all my expectations, and I am very happy with it! The initial setup was tricky because I had to get the settings right, but now it's a breeze to convert my bike into a stationary and vice versa. This trainer is VERY sturdy and allows for a nice range of rear axle lengths and tire widths, and once it is set it only should take tightening / loosing the red QR handle to get the bike in or out. The bike neither should wiggle nor be so tight in that the frame of the trainer flexes more than just a bit when the QR is "closed". Finding the "Goldilocks fit" took some time initially, but then there hasn't been any further problem. And YES, IT WORKS WITH NUTTED (bolt-on) AXLES, best with axle nuts are the domed ("Acorn"-) type. (Those nuts are available at Amazon). Quick release axles might need the (included) skewer. It will NOT work with internal gear hubs; the shifting mechanism of those would not allow to fit the bike in the trainer. THE CORRECT SETTING OF THE REAR WHEEL AGAINST THE ROLLER IS CRITICAL, and it took me quite some tweaking to get it right! From that experience: excessive noise; rubber coming off the tire; and the bike wheel getting hot most possibly might be caused by the roller being set too tight against the wheel, or the tire not having the required pressure. I found out that setting the roller so it JUST turns when the wheel is spun (check by hand when setting), and then adding MAX. 1-2 extra turns on the setting bolt are just right. NOISE: This trainer is not silent, but the noise level should be low enough to not to be annoying or drowning out normal music or TV sound. At first I had the roller set too tight against the tire, and that was noisy!- now that I found the correct setting it's very acceptable IMA. In any case I am scheduling my workout at times when neighbors are not sleeping or wanting to rest. The box should contain: The trainer (the resistance level setting knob is attached); a skewer; a riser block for the front wheel; instructions (which are in readable English and include some pictures). The peg that goes in between the roller setting screw and the roller mechanism tends to fall out when the machine is not set up; be careful! Final note: I am using this with a Schwinn Sanctuary 7 cruiser; later on I will use my Schwinn Ranger MTB on it. Settings may vary with different bike and tire sizes and types.

this is a good little system for riding your bike in your garage on a rainy day. It assembles easily. your bike clips in via the rear wheel. the front wheel sits in a little wheel holder. And once you get it in, if you leave it there as I did for most of the winter, and used it every day, it works great. The problem occurs when you repeatedly try to get the thing in and out of the rear holder. It is a pain! it is very hard to sit the bike axle and line it up properly and get it clamped in. Often you think it’s in, you sit on it and it falls to the side. furthermore, if you have a 10 speed bike, there is a very sensitive arm holding the gears just below this locking mechanism. And if it’s not locked in just properly or if you fumble with it while you’re trying to lock it in, you will rip that arm off the bike or weaken it. Long story short, great for inside use of a bike if it’s gonna be for a prolonged period of time. Not great if you plan on clipping and unclipping this bike several times a week depending on the weather. For that, there’s a better product out there that is easier and safer for your bike and you.

This is an excellent product. It was fairly easy to put together and it fit my racing bike well. Other purchasers have complained about the noise, I have smooth tires and so the noise is really not bad. The construction is solid, it weighs about 25 to 30 pounds so it is sturdy. I bought this to do Tabata training and it works really well. I’m very happy with this product!
