This is a great gadget for keeping you fit during winter if, like me, you're not keen on cycling outside when it's dark, cold and wet. Before I give some tips on riding the on rollers, let me say why I think it's a 5 Star product. Firstly, it seems well made and likely to last for years; it's got a mini step-up platform to make mounting/ dismounting easier; it's foldable for convenient storage; and, it has slightly raised edges on the drums to make it harder for the bike to veer off. I thought about deducting a mark because it's reasonably noisy, but then, afaik, they're all noisy to some extant, so docking a mark on that issue would be unfair because there doesn't seem to be a quiet set of rollers out there.Okay, now for some tips.1) If you're new to rollers, set up between a door frame so that if you begin to veer off (you invariably will), you can use your shoulders or elbows to stay on.2) You'll need a fan to keep cool because without moving air, you'll get very hot and sweaty in no time.3) If you're worried about the noise, put a rug on your floor, then some MDF on top of that for added noise insulation. The rug will absorb some of the noise. This might be essential of you live in a new build.4) Inflate tyres to max recommended pressure. This should make it easier to cycle smoother and faster; essential for staying on the rollers.5) Don't look down! Gaze ahead as if you were on the road.6) Place hands close together on the handle bar. This should reduce the likelihood of veering off through jerky steering. If your hands are far apart, slight movements will result in big steering movements, so keep them together.7) start off aiming to cycle for 30 seconds or so and slowly build up from there.8) Use the rollers regularly! Using them often will increase your confidence and ability to stay on and ride for longer and, as a side effect, will almost certainly improve your overall technique because pedalling smoothly (cadence) will make it easier to stay on.I'm 40 years old and am at beginner/ intermediate level i.e. I can cycle for 10-20 miles at a steady pace but am a long, long way from 'competing' standard. Indeed, I've got a small one-pack (aka beer belly) and don't really expect to swap it for the classic six-pack anytime soon! When I first got the rollers a couple of months ago, I could only manage a handful of bursts between 30-60 seconds, but can now manage on average 30 minutes per session (10 minutes plus another 20 after a rehydration pause).If you want to buy rollers to keep your body in shape over winter, I heartily recommend these ones, but if you're a sportive/ competitive cyclist, you may need rollers with adjustable resistance. For me however, they're perfect!UPDATE (September 2014): After being back on the roads for the last 6 months or so, I thought I'd return to the rollers to start getting used to them again for the coming months and I'm delighted to say they're still effective as ever at making me sweat plenty and having used them last winter, it took seconds to get a feel for it, unlike when I first got them. It was so easy second time around in fact, I'd say it's like riding a bike; once you know how to do it, you never forget - oh wait, I am riding a bike! :)

For the price, these are great beginners rollers.They're 100% plastic, which I wasn't expecting, but that does make them really light and easy to move around, but also makes them easy to shift under the bike on a hard surface - stick these on a non-stick yoga/exercise or bike training mat and you're good to go though.Took me about 20 minutes to get the hang or riding on them and several hours to get comfortable on them - takes a lot of concentration initially.It does come with a coupon for a free trial of their own app (the app and basic usage is free but there is a premium version) However, the coupon just doesn't work and checking on the forums, this is normal,so don't expect the coupon to work if you get this.

I was going to buy myself a set of the Tacx Antares. But a friend of mine had just bought a set and let me borrow them. I wasn't very impressed with them, the build quality wasn't great one of the rollers was very noisy and that seems to be a known problem with them.These Elite Rollers are so much better, they come ready assembled and only needed slight adjustment of the front roller to fit my bike. The instructions are very clear so no worries there. The quality seems to be pretty good and I think the rollers are very quite especially compared to the Tacx model I borrowed.

these are a must for all cyclists or fitness persons wanting to ride or train through the winter. i bought them to do exactly that, so let it snow! i'll ride inside aswell now.tips- looking up and forward and keep those legs pumping. once your up and running you wont get the smile off your face. fifteen minutes on these felt like tour de france. superbly made, easy to set up and put away in seconds.

A real workout, starts you off very shaky and weird, now my handling has improved and I can't wait to get back to it.Excellent for new riders, just make sure you have something to hold onto from BOTH sides.I doubted the difficulty at first, but you'll be drenched in 15 minutes on a 50x25.

Great and portable product for its purpose. It’s just a bit louder than I’d expected. But not sure if that’s because of the tyres or the product itself. But great overall!

takes a few attempts to get the balance and focus right to be able to get going for more than 5 minutes at a time, but a very effective training tool.

As expected and very good. Shouldn't take more than half hour to master. Can get loud, less than a washing machine but still noticeable.

This is hard work - but good fun. You need to be able to steady yourself unless you have really good balance.

Excellent quality didn't take long to get use to them. Really good for winter training.
