or you can bunny hop on to the rollers
Damn woman you are magnificent!
Why?
Best roller video I have seen. Well done all! and THANKS
i wish she was my teacher.lol so hot she is..
What happens if you smash your front brake?
thank you! i was failing, watched your videos and voilá! 🙂
is it possible to get on and off the bike with nothing on the sides
Rollers or stand?
Decent level of fitness required to maintain cadence and thus balance; not easy. I’m struggling but will persevere.
ive got hybrid tyres. should i change em
the girls good
god she’s gorgeous 😍..!
marry me 🙂
XDDDDD
Did not see that coming! 2:13
I would rather use a treadmill
Jk 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Joel Manley I have my rear brake in my right because I am a lefty
where is her butt?
Cyclists of the world. Trainers or rollers? I wanna buy something to pedal indoors but i can’t decide what do get. Overall, i feel bored riding indoors. I have had trainers and it gets boring really fast. Rollers sound exciting but it could take a while to get used to it.
beautiful instructions ….
A couple of things I would say for beginners is use flat shoes without clips and don’t use chairs or moveable objects to help balance…. a wall or the doorway is much safer. Personally I find looking a bit further ahead than a couple of metres is better, maybe 3 or more.
It is also important to use a large fan when riding indoors, otherwise you’ll sweat like a pig.
Brilliant video, thanks 😆
How do you warm down? Impossible! You warm UP & cool down!!!
Lets just do trainers hehe
That is the most dangerous and stupidest invention in cycling ever..
great tips but how do you advance to the point where you can get going without having to lean on or grab hold of something?
Don’t look down at your front wheel. Chris Froome would have a hard time with that
Brava ! Good job ! Many thanks
what if i want to do a U turn ????? hahaha just kidding but it’s really good for balancing,home training and focus….. and finally the perfect way to adjust or fixing your bike issue.
Do I need trainer specific tires for rollers?
redirected to rule No.5
Hi GCN,
cut the felt pads with a thickness of about 1mm and place them under bearings – would be quieter.. 🙂
i’ve seen your other vidios on this subject. THIS ONE IS THE BEST
Wow. That looks like it requires quite some skill. Respect. Is it risky to move too far from the center and just fall from the rollers?
Are rollers really worth it (can you get a good workout out of them) ? I mean for people who want to ride but have either no time during the day or bad weather …
if you are riding on the heaviest gear what does it feel like? os it like riding a climb, descent or just flat?
Thanks , very helpful video !
Rochelle, I’ve been using my rollers now about a month – 4 sessions of an hour each. You tips have been invaluable! I have two questions: 1) how do I reach and drink from my water bottle? I am able to get the bottle, then lose my balance when I try to drink!
2) how do I practice to be able to go hands-free like you?
BTW – love the accent 😀
Thank you! This video is very good!
I already asked the same question in a video like this but I didn ´t really get an answer, so I try here: I’m really enjoying this rollers (model Galaxy), except for when I try to ride my bike standing…I can´t really pedal, as soon as I do it in a "normal" way the bike tries to jump forward and goes out the rollers. The real wheel start making small jumps untill the entire bike makes this step forward…Has anybody else the same issue? Just for info my bike is really big (I set the rollers on the longest position )…I don´t know if that is anything to do with it. Any idea how to solve it? I will try with other bikes, at the moment I am using my CX…thanks
You should learn a lot from Unflexal if you’d like to know how to training good and be more wholesome.
Think I’ll use a turbo trainer.
Yet more proof the earth is flat.
I learn to ride bike at age of 46 month a go and I am thinking getting rollers to improve to skills . What is your advice
I am using Unflexal instructions to all my workouts ideas 🙂
Wow… you make it seem too easy.
I’m sure the best workouts instruction is on Unflexal workouts. I just love it !
what do you recomend for not sweting alot?I open the window and have a ventilator but de ventilator is not enough during the intervalls
