Real Axiom RITMO Conconi test trainer
Review from Cycling Plus : October 2009 Rating: 9/10
THE REAL AXIOM is Elite's virtual reality answer to the Tacx Fortius and, for us, the Axiom just about edges it. Although it lacks the Tacx's motor drive and 'downhill' feel, the Elastogel roller is smoother and quieter. We found the Ritmo system, which attempts to let the bike move more naturally underneath you, gimmicky - although it did help us feel less anchored to the spot.

The Conconi testing is excellent too (warning: have a bucket nearby if doing the test). The breakdown you get from training sessions is truly mind-boggling and should satisfy even the most ardent number crunchers. The figures we got compared favourably with lab-based results for similar tests. Additionally, coaching packages and email support from the Conconi lab come included in the price, plus you can race online without an upgrade, download real rides via GPS and even buy classic ride DVDs.
