Peter’s Story

During our extensive phase of research and development, we loaned a prototype to Peter McDermott who agreed to write us a comprehensive review about the product.

“Being an enthusiastic cyclist, I am keen to get out on my BerkelBike as much as possible, however sometimes I am even beaten by the weather and need to train indoors – the accessible rollers from Velotrain are absolutely perfect for these times and I often spend an hour or so, three times per week exercising.

It’s very easy to use and very compact and portable. It was super easy to position myself using the ramp. The excellent bearings means that it is very quiet as the rollers move exceptionally smoothly. This innovative design can accommodate a variety of wheel & tyre sizes & the addition of side rollers means that it is unlikely that the wheels will come off the rollers. The rubber feet ensure that it is stable and doesn’t move even with increased power.

It is aesthetically pleasing with an attractive black & orange colour scheme and can be easily folded and stored when not in use.

I would highly recommend the accessible rollers from Velotrain to any disabled cyclists for any of their indoor training needs – I even have my Berkel Bike already set up on the rollers and transfer from my wheelchair to my bike”
