Which rollers should I buy?
I can't decide which set of rollers to buy and I'm looking for some help choosing. In the frame are:
Elite Ghibli - Borrowed a set off a mate for a week and liked them. My worry is that as I get fitter and stronger they will be lacking top end due to no resistance. Anyone else felt this or am I worrying for nothing? Retailing currently at £100 is a big plus.
Elite V Arion - like the idea of resistance to vary up the sessions slightly. At double the price of the Ghibli are they worth it?
Elite E Motion - Like the idea of resistance and motion for out of the saddle stuff, replicating climbing etc. but at 6 times the price of the Ghibli will I really see the benefit? I think I may only be considering these so I never have any of those 'I wonder what they would be like' thoughts.
Tacx Galaxia - No resistance but motion.......
At the minute I have a budget of around £330, so could buy any other than the E Motions and get a new set of bibs or whatever, OR, save a little more and go for the E Motions and have no other new kit for a while........
Can anyone share their experiences with any of the above to maybe help me decide please? I've been mulling it over for weeks and feel I am no closer to choosing.
