Super good price for a really high quality product, setup was pretty simple watch some videos if you need more direction. It’s super sturdy, handles max effort pedaling no problem. Magnetic resistance actually works really well if you have the roller adjusted correctly on your tire. Super quiet with a road bike setup.

Very easy to assemble. Works as intended. Got a great workout first time using. I continue using it daily. Because my bike is a mountain bike, it's a bit noisy with my knobby tires, so I just put my headphones on and continue my workout.

I was somewhat reluctant to purchase this based on some of the product reviews, but I rolled the dice and was NOT disappointed! Let me refute some claims in other reviews: (A) It is VERY easy to assemble. There is ONE bolt to install the resistance wheel to the trainer frame. The instructions are pictorial only, but every screw, washer, bolt, and tool (included) are labelled. If you can follow "align bolt A with washer B into hole C and tighten with bolt D", you'll be fine. Its not rocket science. After attaching the resistance wheel to the trainer frame, be sure to align the tightening screw (with the big nob) into the bolt on the resistance wheel. Again, its not rocket science. (B) Attaching your bike to the trainer frame might be a little awkward the first time, especially if you are doing it by yourself, but its not difficult. After you get it right, removing the bike and reattaching it is easy. With some bikes, you may have to replace the axle pin (included), but I did not have to do that. My 25 year old mountain bike attached fine the first time. RECOMMENDATION: Do not rush this step or you may find your bike slipping out of the trainer frame and you flying across room on your moving bike!. (C) A front wheel stabilizer IS included. Once my bike (with 26" mountain bike tires) was attached in the trainer frame, the front wheel sat 3" above the ground and the real wheel sat about 2" above the ground. I am using this in my basement with 7' ceilings and still have headroom when I ride. (D) Noise. Its not silent, but I would not describe it as "noisy" either. I would compare the noise to that of a someone using a vacuum cleaner on the floor above you. Its more of a "drone" or a "whir". Pitch varies with speed and - for me - at a low-moderate speed the noise definitely gets more pronounced, but is less so at low, moderate, and higher speeds. My trainer sits on a "commercial" type carpet that you'd find in an office building. To say one needs "noise-cancelling headphones to watch TV while riding" seems way out of whack with what I am experiencing. (E) An adjustment dial can be attached to your handlebars, nut it does not do much (I'll agree with that!) but - once I set the base resistance using the nob at the back of the resistance wheel (while I am off the bike), I am able to use my front and rear derailleurs to adjust resistance somewhat (its not as pronounced as when you are riding on the road, though). You can then use adjustment dial to make small resistance adjustments within a gear (if that makes any sense). NOTE: I used 2 or 3 small Velcro straps to attach the adjustment cable to the frame. This is not necessary if you plan on using your bike in- and out-doors, or moving the bike between uses...but I plan on keeping it where it is until spring/summer, so the Velcro just keeps things tight and tidy. (F) The workout: Call me Captain Obvious, but the higher the resistance you set initially will determine how hard you work. I'm still playing with it to find the right setting. What feels "right" at first may be too tough to sustain. My first workout kicked my butt. You will likely find yourself making many small adjustments at first until you find your "sweet spot" BOTTOM LINE: Looking for a budget bike trainer, this is the one. There is nothing out there less expensive than this. Its sturdy AND it does the job. Are there better, quieter, more feature-rich units out there? Sure...but a 2 or 3 times the cost, or more! If you are looking to buy an inexpensive indoor bike trainer to help lose your COVID-15, this is definitely worth the investment, IMHO

This bike trainer is perfect for getting a stationary bike on a budget. For half a year, my bike is usually stored away, but with this bike trainer, it's become a great indoor workout machine. There are 10 resistance levels and the trainer fits the bike perfectly. The bike trainer comes with a stand for the front wheel, making the bike level and even with the ground. There is some noise from the resistance wheel, but not bothersome or high pitched. Altogether, a great product for the price.

This thing is pretty mediocre. The resistance mechanism is pressed against the bike tire using a metal screw which when tightened contacts against the plastic housing, which eventually broke from the pressure. It still works but only at the highest resistance level which now feels pretty minimal unless I'm in the top few gears of my bike. It's also a hassle to get the bike in and out. It was 35 bucks when I bought it. I would absolutely not buy it at the price they are seeking it for now.

Easy to attach my bike and it folds pretty small to store it easily also. I am happy with the product.

I’m giving this product 4 stars because it seems functional despite the lack of detailed instructions. The instructions were ok, at best, and instructions on how to properly secure the bike would have also been beneficial but were not part of the setup manual. I hope I figured out the locking mechanism correctly; time will tell. I plan to use it during the winter months from December through March in New England. This basic model suits my needs for keeping in shape and moving my legs. There are more advanced models available, but this one was priced right for me. Noise sound seems average, from what I have used before and durability seems good so far, it comes with a two-year warranty which is a plus as well.

I have just a regular 7 speed Kent Bayside bicycle meant for street use. It didn't require the removable axel part that was included. Some people complain about the noise but I agree with others in believing it's the tred on your tires rather than the device itself. It feels sturdy and stable enough to me.

Cumple perfectamente con lo deseado.

When you put the bike on the trainer and start your workout the bike in moving

Se siente bien fija la bicicleta, los materiales tal vez no sean de lujo, pero se sienten bien y resistentes, sí hace ruido pero tampoco me parece que sea exagerado, probablemente como dicen otros comentarios, influye el tipo de llanta que tengas. Si no vives en un lugar seguro o con ciclovías, la verdad es una excelente opción, para volver usar la bicicleta; los niveles para hacerlo más difícil no se siente que hagan un graaaan cambio, pero sí se alcanza a sentir que se pone con mayor resistencia. Ya viene pre-instalado y lo único por armar (donde se pone la llanta trasera) es muy intuitivo. Llegó bien empaquetado, protegido, con todas las piezas y no es tan pesado por lo que hace fácil guardarlo. Apenas llevo usándolo 1 día y la verdad me encantó poder volver a usar mi bicicleta. 100% recomendado.

１台目負荷器が機能せず、負荷変更レバーを操作しても負荷は変わらずダイヤルを3-2-1-0と騒音が大きくなりうなり音を発します。交換した２台目も同様不具合。問い合わせると同種の不具合が多発しているようで交換してもらえず返金処置になりました。まだ販売しているようですが今出荷されているロットの製品は不良品の様です。負荷器以外は充分な強度があり良い品でした。一万件以上の販売実績があり評価も高いのに残念です。

I couldn’t be happier with the BalanceFrom Bike Trainer Stand! It’s an absolute game-changer for indoor cycling. The stand is sturdy, made of high-quality steel, and feels incredibly stable even during intense workouts. The magnetic resistance works smoothly and provides a range of levels to customize my training. The included front wheel riser block is a great addition, ensuring proper balance and comfort throughout the ride. Assembly was straightforward, and the foldable design makes it easy to store when not in use. Plus, it’s relatively quiet, so I can use it without disturbing anyone in the house. This trainer stand has allowed me to keep up with my cycling routine, rain or shine, without the hassle of going to the gym. For the price, the value is unbeatable. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay active indoors!
