Have a look around this forum, there are plenty of users of such ... http://www.arborwood.com/awforums/sh...&ut=1097589238 Regards, Jim. From 2/03 in rbr by Danny C.: Kevin, I have an older Computrainer which was robust and served me well for years. However, I just got an I-Magic and I love it. You have the ability to train via virtual reality and use steering which is nearly like playing a video game or you can use the "Catalyst" softweare and emulate an ergotrainer with programmable slope, watts, distance, time, etc. Also, there is third party software available through http://www.fitcentric.com which is also very good. In the end, it may depend on your specific needs but I have found myself "playing" on the I-Magic for one to two hours which I was never able to do on the Computrainer. At half the cost of a Computrainer, I would say it's well worth serious consideration..! Danny Callen You scare my Brian! But it is true, I still like the I-Magic. Danny Callen I did a quick Google search and it came up right away. I'm thinking of the Flow model if the other half can be convinced. I guess with the i-Magic you could program in Greylock from the North side for fun? Been a while since I did the North side I miss it! You could program that into the Tacx but it would probably be easier on the Computrainer. However, there is a really cool feature that uses a DVD Video of famous climbs and operates the brake of the trainer to coincide with the grade. Phil Stone (frequent resident on the Wattage forum) created it and now Tacx is pushing it. http://www.turbovids.net/i-magic/ Danny Callen |
