Hey there! I recently came across a new project called freebeat Morph 2-in-1 eBike and it looks incredibly promising. What caught my attention is its dual mode feature which allows you to charge the bike while using it indoors. It's truly a game changer! Plus, the powerful brushless motor, front suspension, and puncture-resistant tires make it perfect for conquering any terrain. And with the Smart Saddle Detection+ feature, achieving fitness goals has never been easier. I highly recommend checking out freebeat's Morph eBike if you're looking for a combination of indoor fitness and outdoor exploration. Keep up the great work! 😊
Thank you for this. I only ride 20-30 miles on my outdoor rides at around 12 mph & was looking for something not too expensive to use on rainy days. Thank you!
I think this illustrates that if you just need an indoor trainer, you can train inside on a low budget and I definitely appreciate the fact that nowhere in the video does it say, 'you should spend a bit more and get this, or for an extra $X you can get this', sometimes people don't have the extra budget and then any suggestion is irrelevant anyway. I've been looking for a trainer with a budget of around £300-400 - but this actually would suffice and be good enough for what I would use it for which just goes to show that some people spend way more than they need to. Unfortunately, that being said, turbo trainers are sold out everywhere at the moment due to current events.
Yeah i got a cheap one too, as i lost my job this year and now all gyms are closed ( for many months) and it’s freezing outside. Gonna see if it makes me sweat, if it does that, it workes for me 😃
@@jackjackthompson5771 I can assure you lifeline tt does, and sorry about your job loss, lost mine last month. Zwift + this trainer does the trick for me personally
The reason that the speed on zwift and speed on the head unit are different is because zwift knows that you are not using a trainer that can adjust based on the gradient you are riding. Zwift takes this into account and lowers your speed so you have to push harder when climbing.
@@TheeGrandmaster I know I'm just wondering cuase you shouldn't have to train your pedaling on a downhill bike. I'm not bashing the guys choices or anything just wondering. Sorry if I gave that impression.
This has largely been my own experience with other Aldi bike accessories. Not perfect, and definitely not high end, but usually outperforming their discount price tags.
I use a cheaper trainer. I have been using it for about 3 years now and haven't had an issue. I don't bother with the change in settings, and I can get solid 2.5 hour rides in no problem :) I'm sure a more expensive trainer would be better, but not for what I need it for
Awesome. This is something I'm looking for. Something cheap af that I can do some quick rides on my porch cause I'm tired of spending 2 hours to ride 30km cause of traffic when I have things to do.
I have had one for a few years and use with a hybrid/fitness bike. It loud, but i have earbuds. Resistance is good and adjustable especially if you use gears too. Its probably not the one to get for a serious roady. But for general cardio fitness it us great.
Damit. I'm in Aldi all the time and I've never seen this. And I've been wanting one for this winter. Sidenote, the Aldi bike work stand is pretty awesome for the price. It was great with my light roadbike and even with a heavy mountain bike I put on it.
Bad thing with that trainer is. After a while, it shreds your tire up. I didn't notice at 1st. Then one day the sun was beaming in on the bike and my black floor in the porch. Where I ride it. It look very dusty, so I got my broom and dustpan and started to sweep it up. That's when I noticed, it was like black soot. That I look at my back tire and sure enough, it was wearing it down. So I got rid of it. So I would say if you have old bike you don't care about and you don't mine cleaning the mess it leaves behind. Your good to go!
If I’m not a hardcore cyclist but just want something for winter time what’s the ideal? Also are they always so loud? Just want to turn on a movie and ride!
That's about $60 less than my old cyclops trainer from the 1990's. But the Cyclops came with a training VHS to compare yourself to...….well guys like you.
I just found this video and can’t find an affordable trainer at ALDI or anywhere. Can someone recommend a link or a store to buy a beginner level affordable trainer?
It's obviously a copy of existing products, but it is quite remarkable that someone can manufacture, ship, and retail a product like this for $28. You'd expect major corner cutting that would make the trainer out of balance, wobbly, or unsafe. China can make (copy) carbon frames and wheels that can match up to many products at 3-5 times the price. They are even beginning to innovate and lead in tech.
Hey there! Just watched your video on bike trainers and I gotta say, I really appreciate the detailed explanations and demonstrations. It's definitely helped me understand the benefits and features better. And guess what? I recently came across a new crowdfunding project by Freebeat called the Morph 2-in-1 e-Bike. It's a game-changer! The fact that it can be charged indoors is mind-blowing. Plus, the powerful motor, suspension, and waterproof finish make it perfect for outdoor adventures. The Smart Saddle Detection+ feature is also a standout, offering valuable insights and motivation for both indoor and outdoor rides. Keep up the great content! Can't wait to see more.
The thing about trainer "speed" is that unless the resistance is comparable to the resistance you'd face riding outdoors at that speed, on the same bike, in the same physical condition, etc., it's meaningless. Speed is only accurate to the extent that the resistance you experience (or the power you put out) on a trainer is comparable to what it would be on an outdoor ride. That said, this seems like a decent buy (assuming it's still available 4 years out) for someone with a low-end but still decent bike who wants to ride 20-30 minutes several times a week at say 15mph, to maintain basic fitness and maybe lose some weight. No need to spend much more for that.
or just buy cheap training tires ?!? with a 20 bucks tire (or even cheaper ones from china) you are still under 50 and every resistance trainer has tire wear
Buy a trainer-specific tire, or one can refurbish a rear wheel with a trainer tire just for the trainer. Indoor trainer tires are not intended for regular road training.
I have an old CycleOps fluid trainer I ride in winter. I can cheat working at a shop, I just grab an old tire a customer doesn't want anymore after a replacement and use it. You don't need a pair, just one. Go to your LBS, I am sure they have plenty that get tossed everyday, I know we do.
@@charliedee9276 Yes but those cheap turbo trainers in the 28 dollar range are very noisy. In addition those low quality turbo trainers wobble and can become unstable when doing sprints and such. It is not just an issue of wear and tear on a tire.
You can get speed sensors for $10, this is misleading video to promote wahoo etc. The trainer is not as bad as the video claims it to be (the "bobby the olympic" is hiding the zwift incline purposefully)
@@888899999888 I'm not really sure how this video is misleading. The trainer seemed to be ok for the extraordinarily cheap price he paid for it. He is using a wahoo speed sensor because he probably had that lying around he could have mentioned you can get these sensors for cheaper but not the point of the video. He is covering up the incline because he is holding the phone probably didn't think it really mattered for this video (which it really doesn't). Comparing zwift speed to a head unit is a bit silly as he is probably on a slight incline but his point is that it gets you in the game it has nothing to do with accuracy. Honestly this trainer is probably on the wrong resistance setting. It probably needs to be on the lowest resistance setting for zwift wattage to line up more correctly. I'm sure he is using unlisted trainer so your really shouldn't be shooting for accuracy. Which isn't the point of this video.
Bobby should stop lying by not telling full story. He is hiding the part of zwift where the incline is listed on camera to purposefully make the trainer look worse. I'd take the bobby to court if I was Aldi.
Just buy a quality spin bike for 200 to 300 buck. And if you can't buy one exercise bike that has all the bells and whistles for that price. You are not trying.
john guthmahn What a weird comment: that’s ten times the price of the trainer, and four or five times the price of the trainer and sensor together. Why did you even post this? You’re not comparing like for like in any way.
@@hutchmusician a new Pelton or Flywheel spin bike costs upwards to 2100 dollars, you can get the same experience for 200 to 300 with a spin bike not named Peloton or Flywheel. 28 dollars is barely enough to cover a subscription.
john guthmahn So what? For people on a 28 dollar budget, 200 or 300 might as well be two or three million. Your comment is frankly offensive in its incomprehension of economic bandwidths outside of your own privilege.

Thanks for doing this test, you’ve convinced me to buy a trainer, I’ve hesitated due to cost, we’re not all made of money.

I was seriously expecting it to catch fire. :-)

Bicycling Walmart road bike
Cheap Zwift-like stuff. I need to find a way to make it cheap enough that my GF doesn't fucking hate me for buying it.
"Affordable" Carbon handle bars, stems, and seat posts. Can they handle his sprint power, and how much do they flex when riding?
A cleaning his bike
he should test a TR-MT10E and compare it to bmx at the bmx park
if this man thinks a $28 trainer is alright even at his level, who am I to pay for more than $28 on Amazon? Or maybe he's just too nice

I always wonder if it’s more wear than a road, or if it’s just localised.
We need Aldi to come to Canada.
If I’m not a hardcore cyclist but just want something for winter time what’s the ideal? Also are they always so loud? Just want to turn on a movie and ride!
Just use headphones for your movie and you'll block it out.
They are loud yes, headphones will get very sweaty so don't use ones that you care much about
@@josephthomas3968 Works for me, but not the others around me. Guess I'm lucky to be in the south where it doesn't freeze very often.
I use bluetooth in ear headphones. Works.
That's about $60 less than my old cyclops trainer from the 1990's. But the Cyclops came with a training VHS to compare yourself to...….well guys like you.
Wait until he realises the inconsistent resistance feel is because he's riding oval chainrings and that's just how they feel.
It was easy to set up and easy to maintain
I just found this video and can’t find an affordable trainer at ALDI or anywhere. Can someone recommend a link or a store to buy a beginner level affordable trainer?
Another dub fo Aldi.
This trainer is like Shimano Tourney, it does the job up to a certain level that is usually very low, and it's the same price.
Im checking a review of this Aldi bikemate trainer. Lol, this was two yrs ago. Now it cost 50€😂😂. Im still gonna think of it🤔😅
Thank you for the video! What's the App that you are using?
Walmart sells a sensor like Wahoo's for 10$ and it works fine.
What's it called
It's obviously a copy of existing products, but it is quite remarkable that someone can manufacture, ship, and retail a product like this for $28.

Just bought mine couple days ago
I never thought I'll be needing one during pandemic
Got a good deal bought ut straight away☺
what did u buy? a bike trainer?
Got mine for £19 this week all I want to ask how can I get my millage working please
I would like to compare a smart trainer to a exercise bike itself? I have ebikes. though want to change from riding outside to riding inside..
Can you change difficulty on the 28 dollar trainer without getting off the bike?
Yes, it has a resistance dial that clamps on to the handlebars.
I don’t find the dial works at all to increase resistance. I have the use of two of these ALDI trainers and same with both…Anyone got any ideas?
I had the previous trainer Aldi sold with fluid resistance, the roller was plastic and I melted it after 4 rides.
What.. only that sensor needed to ride on zwift? :O
What would happen if you connect to zwift using your power meter with that cheap trainer?
The thing about trainer "speed" is that unless the resistance is comparable to the resistance you'd face riding outdoors at that speed, on the same bike, in the same physical condition, etc., it's meaningless. Speed is only accurate to the extent that the resistance you experience (or the power you put out) on a trainer is comparable to what it would be on an outdoor ride.

I have the fluid version of this Aldi trainer, great starter trainer
Do u have a link to it if u don’t mind
Dude can you give the link to buy the product
Which trainer did you select in zwift
Did you calibrate the speed sensor?
Do you need a special rubber for the rear wheel?
There are trainer tires out there, so you don't go wearing away the middle of your good road tires.
Trainer tires are also quieter and more resistant to heat..
What sensor and bike computer do you have?
Where to buy a 28 bike Trainer?
What trainer would you recommend for someone as their first trainer to do trainings and maybe ride zwift?
aaro - you can get like a $100 liquid trainer with a sensor or get a smart trainer much cooler and feels even more realistic:D but very pricey
$28? where and when?
it's probably easy to beat that for $28 if you search used around your area for sturdier models
Can I use this on my brompton ?
Really helpful video and recommendation! Thanks!
This is actually misleading. He hides the incline part of Zwift to make the trainer "output wrong speed".
What should Bobby test next?
If he can clean that bike.
Is aldi the grocery store?
Yes!
I need to get this for my wife and swap with her Kinetic trainer.
good idea
Where can I get this ?
That bike is filthy
will this work with my ebike...?
Where can i get one of those.. Thats dirt cheap, man..
Aldi! But they're not around all the time.
Thet are currently at the Aldi that I shop at in Garden City, Michigan for marked down price of $34.99..original price $49.99
Anyone found the rear roller wearing down almost instantly?
for me rollers are better because youll learn to balqnce, this one is stationary tho
This roler don't crack the frame? Sorry my bad English 🤣
What happened to that back tyre
Why is his sprocket not a perfect circle?
That's Q ring, it's more power-efficient than normal chainrings.
Yet this item is no where to be found in all the Aldi’s I’ve checked.
Danget, I was hoping I could buy one.
Big chances if I do the same sprint effort my knee cap would hit mars.
I can't get my bike to stand straight up, it tilts to the side.
Hee hee, check your floor. (Worked for me, at least.)
I have trainer and goodbye gym membership
It's $94 at Walmart.com...and out of stock.
But the tires wear out and having to replace a good pair can get expensive. A good pair of tires can set you back 50 to 100 dollars.

Yeah, usually these friction trainers require a yellow or blue trainer specific tyre, like those lower end Tacx.
