Ask any avid indoor rider and they’ll tell you: once you’ve got a good smart trainer, the second-best upgrade you can make to your pain cave this winter is a powerful fan.
When you’re hammering out intervals or grinding through a long Zwift ride, your body generates a surprising amount of heat, and without the natural airflow you get when riding outdoors, that heat has nowhere to go. Before long, you’re drenched, uncomfortable, and watching your heart rate drift skyward for all the wrong reasons.
The funny thing is, most of us will spend thousands on smart trainers, bikes and data tools, but overlook the humble fan. You don’t even need to spend a fortune, either. A well-placed, high-powered fan can completely transform your comfort level, even in a small space.
Here are some of the best fan deals for indoor cyclists, whether you’re building out your first trainer setup or optimising an already dialled-in pain cave.
