Elite SUITO Smart Trainer Interactive Trainer

A friend recommended the direct trainer and after a few weeks of research I ordered the Suito. I'm couldn't be more pleased. It was literally a snap to put together. (ok, two snaps). My Trek attached with no problems. The unit is very stable and while some reviews state it's a little noisier than others I have no problems hearing my music or TV. If fact you don't really hear much because the fan you're using is louder than the trainer, and yes you need a fan. Came with a month of Zwift, so I'm using that now and the trainer reacts fine with the app. Also did a week of Rouvy, and while there aren't as many organized rides on Rouvy, the trainer does an amazing job with that app. When you hit a nine degree incline you feel it immediately. The trainer also came with a free year of another app which is ok, but not my go to app. The cassette is included and the front wheel holder is also included. Seems they increased the price by $50 in the last two week on Amazon and it is sold out in other locations. While I thinks it's a great trainer for $750, knowing what I know now, I would pay the extra 50 for it.

Using whoosh it pairs quickly and works amazing

This trainer works well but it does not shift gears properly. I measured and found the distance from the rear dropout to the closest cog tooth was smaller than on the bike. So I added shims to the spacers to match it within 0.1 mm to the same measurement with the wheel on the bike. Even so, the rear doesn't shift properly and no amount of adjustment fixes it. The reason is the rear cog that comes with this is made by "MicroShift" not Shimano, and Microshift does not have the same tooth ramps and profiles as a Shimano cog. Consequently, the shifting action is quite poor.The trainer works fine, so save your money, get the version without the included cog, and buy a true Shimano cog separately.

First, about that price. There appears to be some--and let me call it what it is--dishonesty regarding the advertised list price of $1119.99 marked down to $799.99. This is the only site on which I've seen a price over $800. And I've researched this product extensively before. Even European users pay around $800 after the currency conversion. I'm sure the intent is to make the buyer feel that they're getting a great deal (and they are), but this sales pitch sounds like something I'd hear at a used car lot.That said, the trainer stands on its own merits. I like the fact that it came with a cassette, and my carbon bike with a compatible drive train had no issues being mounted on the trainer. I paired it via Bluetooth to my online structured training plan and have had dozens of flawless hours in the saddle. Is it noisy? Not really; if you train with a fan, your fan will be louder than the trainer. No fan? Your drivetrain will be louder than the trainer.If you're an amateur cyclist the Suito gives you everything needed to maintain or improve your fitness at a price point that's at least $100 less than a comparable competitor. There are more expensive trainers with very nice performance, but at $200-400 more it's my opinion that the amateur cyclist won't get a return on his investment (relative the Suito).Edit: early model Suito had issues with knocking flywheels. I have one of the new models and have had no problems.

I have been using a magnetic trainer for the past two years to ride my bike indoors. I decided to "up my game" and did a bunch of research into smart trainers. I'm still learning how to use this one, but so far I love it. It's a totally different experience than the magnetic trainer. I appreciate how the trainer can mimic going up hills. So far I'm not thrilled with the courses that I can use through myETraining - the videos are jumpy and I still haven't figured out how to utilize some of the programs. I also haven't signed up for Zwift, so I'm not sure how this trainer will preform on that platform. The great parts about this trainer; you can use it straight out of the box, I don't feel like I'm going to fall over, I appreciate the hills and realistic feel of the ride. I'm not judging the trainer on my inability to figure out the program(s) that can be parred with it. I watched a couple of YouTube videos to figure out how to set up my bike - it's so basic that I was convinced I was doing something wrong. So far, I am very pleased with this purchase.
