Staying in shape in the winter months, and getting ready for the spring/summer cycling can be as simple as the conversion of your bike to stationary bike with a good bike trainer. Converting your regular bike into a stationary bike with a stationary bicycle stand like the Cycleops has the added benefit of consistency of fit, allowing you to try out off-season adjustments in position and components.
The bike to stationary bike change using an indoor training stand can also be an economical and efficient way to get exercise if the weather is inclement or time does not permit a longer outdoor ride. With a good stationary bicycle stand switching back and forth from bicycling outdoors to turning your bicycle into an exercise bike is a simple process that does not involve altering equipment on the bike.
Saris Cycling Group has it's origins back in 1973 when the Graber brothers invented their first bike rack. In 1989, Chris and Sara Fortune purchased the bike rack company and grew it to what it is today. The Saris brand was born in 1992, and CycleOps joined the family in 1999. Two years later, PowerTap entered the fold. We are continually innovating and in 2004, we introduced the first PowerTap-equipped indoor cycle. This is a company of dedicated product managers, ingenious engineers, creative designers, and hardworking employees, and they make one of the best trainers available.
At our bike shop we use the CycleOps stationary bicycle trainer in our bike fit area. If you are interested this stationary bicycle stand can be tested before purchase.
