You might have missed that the cycleops I listed DRIVES your power like a treadmill (you have to plug it in.) So you can program it to go '250 watts' and it'll force you to put up 250 watts to turn the pedals regardless of cadence. It's called 'erg mode' in a Computrainer, and is the single most desired features of that Computrainer (retails for $1000 new as well.) KK doesn't do that - it's a huge difference.
I'm waiting for the Wahoo Kickr but we'll see if it ends up being vaporware (another 'erg'mode trainer priced at $1000 for 2013.)
