Does what it claims, but bigger than expected Aug 14, 2006
By ARmazon Strangely, I ordered the riser block, but received the climbing block in the mail. Not that it matters, same price, same overall function. This product does exactly what it claims, and honestly, I don't think the CycleOps trainer can be used comfortably without it. If your front wheel isn't propped up on something, you'll be in an oddly downward facing position at all times, which I can't imagine would be desirable. One complaint would be that the different slots for the tire aren't marked or numbered in any way to let you know which setting you've used, so I feel like everytime I set up the trainer, I need to spin the block around and sit the bike in it, then look at the angle the bike is at, then reposition if necessary. It's just molded plastic, is it too difficult to have a little number 1, 2 and 3 set into it somewhere? Sort of annoying, but aside from that, the block is good. It even helps keep the bike upright while you're playing around properly securing the back wheel to the trainer.

Excellent Product Feb 23, 2006
By Kathy Harrison This is a great accessory to use with my Mag Trainer. It has different levels for training. Even thou I use mine mainly because I have bad knees and riding helps keep the pain out and my knees from getting stiff. This product was a good investment.

Good product, but no labels Dec 28, 2007
By SLB This product does indeed do what it is supposed to do. It was definitely larger than I expected, but it makes no real difference. And indeed, they could have placed some numbers or something to indicate the angle increments, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I'll give it high points for durability, though.

OK product Jan 27, 2010
By D. Jones This riser block has three levels that you can put your front tire in. The highest level makes the bike about level when sitting in my Cycleops Fluid 2 trainer, so the other two level are useless for long rides in the trainer because you are facing down in the front with too much pressure going on your arms, wrists and shoulders.
Before I used this riser, I used a automobile ramp that was for driving my car onto to change the oil. This ramp offered much more variation in angles for the bike but would not hold the wheel snug as this riser does. This riser is also portable, as the automobile ramp is not.
Ok product, just wish it was constructed to raise the front wheel farther than it does.

Upon receiving this product I was slightly disapointed to find that the levels on all 3 rivots are the same (or really really slight difference). It works thought
