Accessories manufacturer Tacx has added the "Antares T 1000" model to its range of training rollers. The 7.2 kilogram free roller is characterised by quiet running and clever handling: when two safety levers are opened, the plastic roller frame can be pushed together to a compact storage size of 80 x 47 x 13 centimetres. Only suitable for endurance and motor training due to the low, non-adjustable resistance.
PLUS: Quiet operation; compact storage capacity
MINUS: only suitable for light endurance training
