Hi everyone:
contemplating to purchase a trainer, and having a look at what's
generally available in the market, I have the following questions. Any
experience to share?

Any insight is appreciated. Cheers,
FWIW, I bought a Minoura rim trainer and am quite happy with it. I'm
only a moderate user 'cos it never rains in Sydney, but it is useful for
warmup before a race.
Useful note:
A rim trainer is handy for truing a wheel after replacing a broken
spoke. (stupid Shimano 535s). Actually the 535s aren't that bad - they
get ridden every day over gutters and pothole-ridden Sydney roads. Only
two broken spokes in about 8000km...
