Resistance & Drive Types
Wind Trainers
In a wind trainer, the roller drives fan blades that create air resistance. These are typically the least expensive and noisiest trainers. This is similar to what you would find on a spin bike or on a rowing machine. They also may lack enough for serious riders.
Magnetic Trainers
As the name suggests, Magnetic trainers use magnets to provide resistance on the bike wheel. Mag trainers are a cost-effective option that will also allow for adjustment on how much resistance is provided however, to change the resistance you will need to get off the bike and adjust it manually or run a cable up to your handlebars. if you are looking at purchasing a mag trainer, the Jetblack M5 is a great option.
Fluid Trainers
Fluid Trainers are similar to magnetic trainers in terms of price and sound. Fluid trainers like the Wahoo Kickr Snap is a great trainer for the everyday rider who wants to get in some extra km’s. Fluid trainers will be slightly quieter than a magnetic trainer, but still quite loud in comparison to a direct drive trainer.
Direct Drive Trainers
Direct Drive Trainers like the Tecx Neo 2T replace the rear wheel of your bike and your bike mounts directly onto a cassette attached to the trainer. These trainers are the quietest but also are fairly expensive, Most direct drive trainers will come stock with smart trainer capabilities and connect to cycling apps like Zwift.
