Long lasting
I bought these rollers in 2006 and I'm still using them to this day (2024). I've put many hours on these things and they're great. Surprised how long they've lasted. Sure there are other more expensive brands out there but for the price, very hard to beat these.

Great for technique and balance
I have owned these for around eight years and chose them over static trainers because I thought they would be more interesting to ride. Rollers are not that difficult, if I can learn to ride them, anyone can. I started with the set up in an internal doorway placing one hand against the vertical and one on the handlebars. It took a couple of sessions before I was confident to get both hands on the bike, but it felt an achievement and soon it became second nature. I was keeping upright and all I needed was the back of a chair on one side to help start and finish my sessions. The longer the wheelbase of the bike, the easier it will be to learn to ride rollers. I began with a mountain bike and then moved on to a shorter wheelbase road bike. It’s important to make sure that tyres are up to pressure otherwise they will squeak and increase resistance. I don’t have extra resistance on the rollers, I find that the gear changes on the bike are all I need to vary the strength needed to keep going. Rollers are not really about building strength. They provide a core workout because you constantly need to adjust balance and they give you a much better technique. I noticed after the first winter of using rollers that out on the road, I sat squarer on the bike and my pedalling was more efficient. It’s like having a technique coaching session. If you get it wrong, you lose your balance, so you develop a way of staying upright and that translates into much better technique on real rides. The only thing that I would change is the rubber feet design. The feet split after time and I think that is because the square metal ends are forced into round rubber feet. Otherwise these should last a long time. Don’t be afraid, get some rollers!

Intrigued
This design seems like it would be both fun and a challenge. Although you probably get a better workout with the resistance type trainers, I believe enhancing one's balance and cadence will pay off in the long run.

I've had my rollers for about 2 years now. Love riding on these, gives me a great workout and has helped smooth out my pedal strokes.

Great Product.
These rollers have been used on average 3x/week for 18 years. The resistance unit is installed and is a nice upgrade. Warrantied and replaced two cylinders during that time due to bearing failure and replaced one band. Not bad. I guess its time for CycleOps to work on a Smart Roller.

Stands the test of time
While I find that most of the time, I get maximal benefit from the turbo trainer there are plenty of times that I prefer the rollers. These rollers are stable, quiet, and easy to store. The width is ideal for working on spinning and technique. I have taken to using them for race warmups, too as they keep me focused. I have replaced the rubber band and it was straightforward. This set of rollers will continue to be part of my training for a long time.

I have a set of these Saris rollers that I have had for a few years. Two of the drums/rollers have side to side play at the drum/bearing interface area. I cannot remember them being that loose. Is side to side play normal?

Do I need special tires on my bike in order to use this roller , or will it work with the tires I have on my bike ?
June 15, 2021
I saw some people mention in the the reviews that they were able to replace the rollers axle and bearings. Where would I get these parts if I need replacements? The replacement section on the website doesn't show any part replacements for these rollers.

Do these rollers work only with high-pressure slicks? I can get them barely rolling with my 700x28 lightly treaded tires at max 95 PSI and the rolling stops instantaneously after I stop pedalling.

What is the operating temperatures for these rollers? Specifically for the cold. Will bearings or the belt be affected?

Hi would these be suitable for a Brompton folding bike?
January 29, 2021
Is there a recommended tire width or type? Wondering if my racing tires are too narrow to use on the rollers.

How much resistance can this unit provide? I'm not looking to simulate Alpe d'Huez, but I've read that some rollers can feel too light.
