Anybody have any experience with wind trainers/rollers? I'm considering getting some for the winter- I don't think I'll be able to run and avoid injury without getting an expensive pair of orthotics, and in that case I'd rather get something for my bike anyhow. So how about it? Can I get something that will add resistance to my rollers? Are there generic devices that attach to them, or if I get Kreitler rollers, do I have to get the little wind attachment from them exclusively. I noticed that Fuji makes some rollers with a little adjustable resistance knob and wheel on it. It seems like that would be unrealistic- resistance should increase with speed, right? Maybe rollers are an expensive luxury and I should just go with a wind trainer. Fellow bikers, I put the question to the floor... -mike schwager (...ihnp4!uiucdcs!schwager)
