Do I need an expensive fluid trainer for my bike?

Asked by itmustbeken (233points) January 19th, 2011

I’m getting ready for a race in about 3 months and I wanted to get a fluid trainer for my bike. My biking buddies (who all ride some VERY expensive rigs and think nothing of paying $400 for shoes…) say I should buy Kinetic or PsyOps fluid trainers. At $300, that seems a bit…much. Saw some others at $120—$150.

I totally understand ‘you get what you pay for’, but is it really worth it for something i’m only going to use 2–3 months out of the year?
