Turbo Trainers Selection Guide
How much movement do you want your turbo trainer to allow?
A turbo trainer that allows for some movement can make your indoor training sessions more comfortable and more enjoyable, because they mimic a realistic cycling experience more closely. Turbo trainers with a high degree of movement allow for some lateral as well as some side-to-side movement, which results in a more realistic outdoor cycling feel. Turbo trainers with an average degree of movement only allow for lateral movement. Turbo trainers without any movement don't allow for any movement to mimic a realistic, road cycling feeling.

You also have smart trainers that you can link to all kinds of trainer software, such as Zwift. So you can get even more out of your workouts!
What is a direct drive trainer?
A direct drive turbo trainer is a trainer that is much more precise and where you hang your bike without a rear wheel. You can link a direct drive turbo trainer to all kinds of training software programmes. In addition, direct drive trainers can simulate a much higher gradient. This way, it's like cycling up the Alpe d'Huez for real! This makes training with a turbo trainer even more challenging.
What is a smart bike?
A smart bike gives you the most realistic and comfortable way to train indoors. You don't need your own road bike for this. Smart bikes are very quiet and they can simulate very high inclines.
