CycleOps Stackable Climbing Block for Indoor Bicycle Trainers customer reviews: CycleOps Training Block Great product. I little "chunck-ier" than I was imagining, but it works great. Much better than using a phonebook! A Decent Climbing/Leveling Block This CycleOps Stackable Climbing Block essentially does what it is supposed to do. It raises your tire to simulate climbing a hill. First things first. If you purchase just one of these to use with a trainer, the best it will do is raise your front tire even with the back. Indoor bike trainers raise your tire, and this thing merely raises the front to be level with the back. You would have to stack them (they are stackable) to achieve any height. This being said, I don't see how stacking these things would provide a harder workout. With my wheel on the ground, I do not feel as if it is easier than in the block. You're not fighting gravity like if you were walking/riding up a hill (or on a treadmill), so I don't see how this "climbing block" would simulate that. It simulates the position of uphill riding, though, and maybe that's all some people are looking for. In addition, the levels (there are six, supposedly) are not marked. Therefore, unless you mark it yourself, you have no way of knowing what slot you had it in. Small quibble, but a quibble nonetheless. Lastly, it WILL slide if you want it to, but it is VERY stable. It does the job I wanted it to do perfectly, which is to level my front wheel with my rear on an indoor trainer. It doesn't scuff up my hardwood floor, and that is a definite plus. Overall, I am pleased with the construction and usefulness of this product, for what I use it. It is sturdy, well-built, and does not mar the floor. On the other hand, it is not well-marked, and it doesn't seem to simulate a "climbing experience." I didn't figure it would, though, so I am pleased with my purchase. meh I'm not sure if this is really necessary. It might keep the bike more stable(?), but the different heights aren't terribly different and I don't think it makes a huge impact on anything. CycleOps stackable climbing block The block will level out the front wheel of your bike while on your trainer or will give you the feel of an uphill climb. Great buy as a trainer accessory. Works exactly as advertised This is simply a stabilizer block for the front wheel when using the bike as a trainer. It keeps the front wheel from twisting around, elevates it to make it level with the rear wheel and provides a stable stand for it. There are several different wheel grooves, for different elevations. The curved wheel grooves match the contour of the wheel and help keep the bike from putting forward/backward pressure on the trainer, possibly making it creep during the workout. Not much else to it. I am very glad that I included it in my order for the CycleOps trainer since I didn't want to nail a bunch of boards together to duplicate this.
