Elite Turno Fluid Direct Drive Bicycle Trainer (Black)
8020775028889
A quiet, direct-drive fluid trainer for riders who want a genuinely realistic pedalling feel without needing mains power or an app to get riding.
Overview
Turno is Elite's direct-drive take on fluid resistance — a genuinely uncommon combination, since most fluid trainers are wheel-on. Removing the rear wheel and mounting directly to the drivetrain eliminates the tyre wear and slippage a fluid wheel-on trainer usually brings, while keeping the smooth, progressive resistance fluid trainers are known for.
What's actually equipped: a built-in fluid resistance unit uses a specially developed silicone oil for constant, round resistance through the pedal stroke, paired with a 5kg flywheel for a realistic feel. An integrated Misuro B+ sensor transmits speed, cadence, and estimated power over ANT+ and Bluetooth to your training app of choice. Because it's not an interactive trainer, it needs no mains power at all — resistance increases naturally with your effort, the way an outdoor bike does.
It's built for riders who want a quiet, dependable direct-drive trainer for steady-state riding and general fitness sessions, without needing ERG mode or app-controlled resistance changes.
Why You'll Like It
No Power Outlet Needed
Since resistance comes purely from the fluid unit rather than a motor, Turno needs no mains power — set it up anywhere and ride.
Genuinely Realistic Resistance
Elite's silicone-oil fluid unit gives constant, round resistance through the pedal stroke that increases naturally with speed, closer to riding outdoors than a stepped resistance system.
Quiet, Direct-Drive Operation
Removing the rear wheel eliminates the tyre noise and slippage of a wheel-on trainer, while the fluid unit itself runs quietly.
Data You Can Trust for Steady Riding
The integrated Misuro B+ sensor transmits real speed, cadence, and power estimates to your training app, so you're not riding blind.
Who Is It For?
Riders in India who want a simple, dependable direct-drive trainer for steady-state rides and general fitness sessions, without needing ERG mode or app-controlled resistance. It suits anyone who wants their trainer ready to go without waiting on a power connection or app pairing.
It also works well as a low-maintenance second trainer for a household, since there's no motor or electronics to worry about beyond the sensor.
Good to Know
A 12-month subscription to Elite's My E-Training app is included, so you can log and review your data even without ERG mode.
The included adapters cover 130-135mm quick-release and 142mm thru-axle hubs, so most road, gravel, and mountain bikes mount without extra parts.
