The steel sleeve prevents wear of the trainer, while the elastogel absorbs vibrations to reduce the noise The roll is made from two materials : a hardened steel sleeve with a soft core elastogel. With two easy clicks your bike is securely locked in the trainer frame, making sure that your bike is safely fixed and doesn't go anywhere

Tacx Wheel on trainers are easy to setup. I strongly recommend putting on the pink/red tire for the road bike that Decathlon offers, it grips the resistance and gives real comfort in use. Although the maximum possible power is given as 800W (I think) there is very little difference in resistance between a 3% slope and a 6% slope (the maximum on this model), and therefore I think it is too 'soft' for big sizes. As it comes with a quick release it is practical for those who have 'standard' bikes and allows for example to use road bikes (adults) and 2.7 mountain bikes with 2.1 tires (teenagers) without having to be big other than adjusting the brake knob that wedges against the tire.

Bkool is another option especially for europhiles, coming from spain :-) For those who want to start with a smart trainer, those who want to get back into shape, I recommend the SMart Flow. A special mention to RGT which gives a feeling close to the road and which controls the engine brake very well. On the other hand with Tacx, RGT or Bkool it's great. Flat with Zwift! there are still quite a few issues with Zwift and this model, especially the brake which is set way too aggressively. Since then the new trainer has been working great.

First of all thanks to Decathlon Ottawa customer service for helping me fix a weird issue with my purchase (poor Bluetooth connectivity).
