X2Max Smart Bike Trainer Cycle Trainer Bicycle Trainer, Quiet Portable Design for Indoor Driving, Simulates 18% Slope, ANT + & BLE

I must say that when I purchased this unit, I did have my fingers crossed in hopes it wouldn't be an issue to connect and that it would work beyond 5 rides. I have close to a thousand miles on it, and it's been flawless. It connects immediately to my app and responds to the programs.

I needed some help from my local bike mechanic to attach my Trek road bike to the trainer, but other than that I've had no issues at all. The Bluetooth connection is consistently smooth and painless. The trainer itself is as quiet as I'd hoped and I don't have trouble listening to podcasts with earbuds while riding. Well worth the price.

The trainer works well. I have used it with both Zwift and MyWhoosh. The documentation that comes with it is sparse, but enough to get it set up. There is a QR code in the booklet that is supposed to take you to a site related to upgrading firmware, but the page has been taken down. The ThinkRider tools app is useless, and the selection that is supposed to update firmware just spins... no indication of progress and I assume it doesn't do anything.

This was a gift for my daughter and she loves it! Uses it daily with her 2024 Specialized Diverge Comp E5. May be the best smart trainer you can get at this price point. Provides great resistance and isn’t too noisy; she can listen to music without issue. Bluetooth worked immediately.

If you want a cheap and reliable bike trainer. Get this. Easy to install just 4 screws. Really changes the resistance depending on the trail. Its very sturdy! Even during hard pedaling standing up.

The product is excellent and does exactly what it promises. I've been using it for almost two weeks now, and it exceeded my expectations. It's very quiet, and the ride simulation is very realistic (I use the Rouvy App). Installation was super simple and trouble-free. I just had to buy a Shimano cassette identical to the one on my bikes, and I installed it myself. I have two bikes: one road bike with a quick-release axle, and the other a mountain bike with a 12mm thru axle. In both cases, thanks to the shims provided with the trainer, they worked perfectly. Regarding the seller, delivery was very fast, many days earlier than Amazon had estimated. I recommend the product.

Great deal for the price!! 😁😔

First time using a smart trainer. I have used it for about a month with no issues. Set up wasn't bad. The calibration in the thinkrider app is in Spanish as an English speaker I figured it out. On the bottom of the trainer a red LED flashes and increases with your effort. Cool except it cant be turned off. Unplugging it is the only solution. Poor design. The update needs a switch. The other complaint is that it is not compatible with virtual shifting. Hopefully a firmware update will come along and allow this option. Other than that the price is great and works well with the Zwift and Rouvy. Its a great starting point to test the smart trainer waters. Probably won't be my last trainer.
