Why is an 8kg flywheel the ideal choice?8 kilograms is often considered the golden mean for home bike trainers, for several reasons:
Optimal combination of smoothness and resistance: A flywheel of this weight offers a smooth enough ride for a realistic feel, while still providing enough resistance for an effective workout.
Versatile Use: It is suitable for beginners looking to improve their fitness as well as more advanced cyclists looking for a more challenging workout.
Compact size and lighter weight: 8kg flywheel trainers are often more compact and lighter than models with heavier flywheels, making them easier to carry and store.
Good value for money: 8kg flywheel trainers offer great value for money, meaning you get quality equipment at a reasonable price.
Why you shouldn't choose a flywheel that's too light or too heavy:
Too light a flywheel: If the flywheel is too light, you won't get a realistic ride feel and won't be able to achieve high enough resistance for an effective workout.
Too heavy flywheel: A flywheel that is too heavy can be difficult to control, especially for beginners. Additionally, trainers with heavier flywheels are often larger and heavier, which can be a problem when storing them.
