Want to train indoors 'with Power' and not spend a lot to do it? I have a mid-90's era Computrainer, pretty much what is shown in these 2 Ebay ads:

I have used it occasionally (when so motivated) and it works great, provides pretty smooth resistance and wattage output corresponds to other systems pretty well, i.e. 250w on this thing is ~250w elsewhere. I can have it hooked up (to tv) at my place in order to test it (bring your own bike), and I would throw in the tv with purchase.

It is a great winter training and/or in-season interval tool, I find myself not using it much any more though, $450 obo, thanks Rich
