>>2016447I think a bicycle, even on rollers, can compete with many vacuum cleaners.
I believe it should be possible to run vacuum cleaners, even in town type apartment building things. Maybe not ad midnight idk.
Once you start looking you'll see all kinds of problems that were never there. Imo it's still best to get rollers. Least noise, really useful if you want to hone your sense for bike balance and smooth out your high cadence spinning and if its still not steady enough for super 'tistic analysis of angles, lines and other geometry you can run rollers with a fixed front or entirely fixed bike.
In case its not obvious: Traditional rollers offer constant and marginal drag, no real resistance.
