trainer selector suggestion..

[Jinesh]

Hello everyone,,
we have a more than half-year winter here, so i need a trainer for almost everyday activity.

not sure about interactive, but it need to be smart and transmit data to garmin devices.
and long-lasting of course.

i was thinking about direct driver models (turno, kura, direto), but "elite trainer selector" _persistently_ suggest "qubo power fluid" model.
(additionally i would need musiro b+ sensor for connectivity, i suppose, and thru-axle adapter because i only have mtb with 12x142 qr?)

so, can i trust the selector choiсe, or there is any reasons to pay twice for direct drive trainer?

Hi

Of course... the more you pay, the more you have
But at the same time, it may be that a low-end trainer is all you need for your training

The major benefit of a direct drive is quietness (you don't have the contact between the wheel and the roller and this means less noise).
This is a point to consider.

The other thing you have to consider is if you think you want a "simulator" of outdoor riding or not.
Fluid trainers (Fluid, Turno, Kura...) have a completely different approach compared to Interactive trainers.
Here's an interesting article about this (it's about Turbo Muin, but it's the same concept):

When you'll have decided if you want an interactive trainer or a smart trainer, and if you want a direct drive or a traditional one, it will be all more clear
