I am a huge fan of the Kurt Kinetic trainers but I have the Road Machine. It's solid as a rock and has taken a beating over the last couple of years. Sorry to hear about your trouble....anyone else have any reviews on the Rock and Roll version of the Kurt Kinetic? @Mitch….Ouch that’s tough to hear.

Sorry to hear about your trouble….anyone else have any reviews on the Rock and Roll version of the Kurt Kinetic?

I just purchased a Rock and Roll Fluid Trainer. It turns out that it is made in China. Several key welds are out of alignment which prevents the two main bolts that hold the upper arms and resistance unit to the base to from engaging the threaded attachment points on the base. The upper axle support arms were not welded perpendicular to the resistance unit attachment point so the bike rear tire does not hit perpendicular to the roller of the resistance unit. The DVD that came with the unit freezes up when I try to play it. I have no problems with the other Spinervals DVD's that I own. The rubber support feet for the turntable front wheel support started falling off the second day of use. My advice is to stick with the Road machine and a solid front wheel support.
