I saw an earlier post from you about this- the bike I chose was based on it being the least used of my bikes. I figured itd be best to put the wear on that bike's components since I ride it outside the least. I like drop bars for Zwift since it has so many hand positions(i am constantly moving my hands around, Im guessing its how I deal with never getting to coast) and allows for back position changes too.
i picked up a saris m2 trainer on Black Friday. The price was great and it works with 120, 130, or 135 rear wheels. I may use a mtb with a trekking bar as that gives me plenty of hand positions. The unit was back ordered and I just received so I’ll set it up soon. The weather has been pretty mild in Des Moines though so maybe it’s time to get back on the road
