Slowtwitch's Pinball Wizard

: Lionel Sanders was trading punches with... Matt Gardiner? He's a full time CPA, not a bike racer, but sure plays a mean pinball.

Zwift Foibles

: I am sort of computer dyslexic. If you’re like me what I write below might resonate and make your Zwifting a little easier to wrangle.

How Does the Latest KICKR Compare?

: Slowtwitch just announced its second weekly Zwift event. How about a smart trainer? After several months on the KICKR 2017, here's our view.

It's the Hilly Vanilli, SlowZwifters 2nd Weekly Ride

How a Woodway treadmill became a reality

: Our editor-at-large Herbert Krabel had been lusting for a Woodway treadmill ever since he experienced one of them at the NY Giants training center, but the $12,000 price tag was a massive hurdle.

The Jewel in Racermate's Crown Up for Sale

: Computrainer is gone, the marine and aviation products are gone or soon will be, and Velotron is now on the block. Interested?

Cobb's Move Into Stationary

: This company, best known for its saddles, is either lucky or smart or both, because it's added stationary to its offerings.

CycleOps Hammer: Long Term Review

: Stable and sturdy. Great price at $1199. Power accuracy not on par with some direct-drive smart trainers. Smooth road feel compensates.

The Treadmill Revolution?

: Stationary training on Slowtwitch is almost all about the bike, not the run. But 72 percent of you run on treadmills. Why is there no treadmill ecosystem?

Smart Trainers

: Unlike children where a precocious tendency might be a sign of intellect, there is no value in a sassy trainer.

Rollers

: This month 3 in 10 Slowtwitchers said their year-end spend will be on stationary training, equal to all other sport spending combined. Here is one class of stationary trainer.

Turbo Trainers

: The ubiquitous product for indoor cycling. Attaches to the rear of the bike, suspends it just above the ground, exerts some form of resistance while you pedal.
