When you've shelled out some considerable money on a serious indoor bike trainer that lets you train at all times and in all conditions, a few extra pieces of gear can help you get the best from your outlay.

Here's a kit which has all those basic needs in one handy package, saving you money on buying each piece separately. 

A training mat is an essential for protecting the floor under your training bike - because inevitably it will take some punishment as you clock up the miles, and over time, could get damaged.

The block adds sturdy yet stable extra height to your bike's front wheel, so you can simulate the exertion you'll put in when climbing. It's a great idea which is specifically designed to hold your bike stable - far safer and reliable than any improvised set-up!

The Saris-branded towel is a final touch - keep it handy through all your training sessions for keeping yourself dry so you can be ready to go again.
