The unique PowerMatic magnetic resistance unit provides an exponential resistance level that you dictate through your pedaling stroke.Set the limit of resistance by using the "Torque Limiter" lever to get high-speed/low-resistance training not possible on any other trainer.
Heavy 1,050 gram machined steel flywheel provides a super smooth pedaling experience along with a noiseless training session. All the hallmarks of our RDA systems.
Fits all wheels from 24" to 27"/700c.
Comes with remote.

Rim Drive System
Rim Drive system is developed and patented exclusively by Minoura.This can eliminates all problems found on the stationary bike trainers such as noise and vibration caused by the uneven tire tread pattern and premature tire wear due to the roller contact at all time.The rollers on the rim drive system don't touch the tire at all so you don't need to worry about the tire wear, especially when warming up before the race.
PowerMatic Unit
PowerMatic system simulates a fluid like exponential power curve even using magnetic resistance mechanism.The resistance will be increased as you gain the pedaling speed.The max resistance level can be controlled via the remote control lever in 7 levels, so you can do high-speed/low-resistance training to maintain the skill for goal sprint that cannot be simulated on any fluid system trainers.
