Crown Roller Cycling
Customer Review: Chris M.

"I’ve been waiting for a few days before giving you some feedback on the rollers. I’ve been riding them twice daily for most days since receiving them. My feedback is as follows:
​
Let me address the “low-hanging fruit” first. The appearance of the rollers is incredible. I noticed the look in the Youtube vids, but the vids don’t do them justice after seeing in person. Because they’re so sexy…I must now get a sexier road bike to match. Thanks for helping with my excuse!
​
The construction is impeccable! They’re very solid…much (much) more so than other rollers I’ve owned. The solid construction doubtlessly enhances the stability, despite the physics behind the design.
​
As for the design…apparently the science behind them is accurate. Remaining in the center of them is practically automatic. As I was riding them the second time, I thought to myself, is this design a crutch? Will they not provide the neuro benefit of conventional rollers because they are so much easier to ride? I then swapped back to my Tacx Galaxia rollers and was more stable on them too. Also, I realized your design is opposite (literally) to the design of my Tacx rollers. Whereas the drums on the Crown rollers is convex, the Tacx are concave; with the claim that the concave design of the Tacx will keep the rider centered. After riding both, I found when I forced myself left or right on the Tacx, where the drum increased in circumference, I accelerated toward the edge. I believe my sensation gives credibility to your design, with increased stability in the larger circumference section (the center) of the drums.
​
While I understand the cost will give some riders pause, when other rollers are a fraction of the cost of the Crown rollers; I am very pleased with the purchase. I know I’ll spend more time on them than other rollers I’ve owned, which will just add to my riding enjoyment & efficiency. Let me know anyway I can help spread the word…you’re on to something with this design!"
