You mention feel. Rollers give great feel, but you give up a lot of feel when you bolt on a fork stand.

If you want great feel, use normal rollers with large barrels. If you want great feel with more resistance, use normal rollers with narrow barrels or lower your tire pressure. If you want narrow for travel as well, consider Kreitler Hot Dog rollers. They are more narrow than standard Kreitler rollers:




Or you can special order these from Kreitler:

(this is my old bike and rollers)



Very small, light, and traveled well...but required too much concentration to stay up. Possible, but difficult to relax on them.
I had some Kreitler rollers a few years ago and they were nice. Those Kompact Hot Dog Rollers look dangerous! I have a hard enough time staying on normal width rollers that aren't beveled.
