Omnium Portable Trainer

This simple fork-mount design is optimized for pre-race warm-up, travel, and those days when life (or the weather) gets in the way of your ride. The Omnium trainer utilizes Internal Progressive Resistance (IPR): delivering a real-road feel with minimal noise.

OMNIUM PORTABLE TRAINER

The Omnium Portable Trainer by Feedback Sports has been on my radar for over year. What intrigued me about this product is the simplicity of set up, the durability and the sealed bearing/aluminum drums giving you that real road feel. Set up took approximately 30 seconds and just required a few unfolding and folding, no tools whatsoever and simple wheel placement on the twin 4-inch aluminum drums. It was a very familiar feel to that so long-ago training on rollers but this was much simpler and of course safer experience. The Omnium allowed me to truly concentrate on getting the most out of my ride. With just the removal of the front wheel, it easily excepts all ranges of forks, sizes of bikes thru the adjustable wheel distance base. The Internal Progressive Resistance (IPR) gives you a true “real road feel” as you increase your power and wattage with a very realistic movement and minimal noise. Omnium trainer is affordably priced for around $425 and does work with Zwift, and TrainerRoad and the Sufferfest for all your virtual training rides. The highly portable trainer with a total weight of 14 pounds and an easy heavy tote bag, can take you anywhere in your house, hotel or pre-warm-up. The Omnium Portable Trainer is the best portable trainer that gives you that true to pavement “Road feel” that is stable, and easy to use for a great price.
