Blackburn Trakstand Mag 3 Trainer – Reviews

This is my first bike trainer. I thought I would try this in my apartment, even after reading several reviews online from people saying bike trainers are not for apartments, and now I agree also. I was able to set this up in the basement of the building so it worked out okay for me. I tried it in my apartment, but it was vibrating the floor and quite loud so I didn’t want to be rude to my neighbors downstairs. I even tried getting a mat to go under the trainer, but it didn’t help the noise very much. The noise is from the tire tread, the trainer itself doesn’t make noise that I’m aware of.

Also, it might be helpful for you to know, I was hoping to be able to set this up with my old Huffy, but was not able because the trainer requires a quick-release skewer for functionality, and my old Huffy doesn’t have this. So I used my newer mountain bike instead, but then I had to buy a flat tire because the mountain tire was very noisy with the tread. I used free super-saver shipping and it came very quickly – I was impressed. I haven’t gotten a lot of time on this yet, but I am happy with it so far. Seems sturdy.

bought this along with a bench to keep me fit during the winter months, and i gotta say its a “great buy”. during the summer i cycled an average of 30 miles a day to and from work through nyc which was a great workout an saved me allot on train fare lol. but as it got colder Ive been forced to hang up my bike.

this is my first trainer and i didn’t really know what to expect. straight out the box came as one piece so no set up. came with it’s own axle you so can save your good one quick axle swap and drop into the trainer. centered onto the roller with 2 25lbs weights to level it out and that’s it.

only thing after about an hour of nonstop peddling the resistance unit heats up but other than that it works great.

This bike trainer fulfills all my expectations for a bike trainer. And it’s reasonably priced! Tip: use slick road tires to eliminate noise and don’t forget a block for your front tire.
