Saris H3 Indoor Bike Trainer – Ultra-Quiet 59dB, 12-Speed Ready, Includes Training App Subscription

Works great with quick startup and completely quiet operation

I purchased the H3 Plus a month ago and it's great right out of the box. I had no issues mounting the 12 speed Shimano cassette and then my TCR was the cherry on top! The H3 Plus connected seamlessly to the Rouvy app tracking my power, cadence and speed. I did have the original H3 before this purchase, but I upgraded to a di2 Shimano drive train which was a 12-speed, so I ordered the H3 Plus and didn't skip a beat. So far, after about 130+ miles, it's been very sturdy and reliable. Most of all, its realistic torque always gives me the next best thing to being out on the road. No excuses to train even in bad weather or because of weird timing due to work and life.

I have only had this trainer for a period of about 3 weeks it is my first indoor trainer it is very quiet it is very sturdy it has made of high quality plastic it does not wobble at all while I'm riding it and it feels as though I am on a hard surface when riding. It offers excellent abilities when coupled with other ride training programs such as Rouvy... and it offers very challenging rides for the offseasons. I would highly recommend this to anybody that's looking for one of the most quiet rides available on the market. The only downfall to this product is that they do not supply the cassette with it as I do believe it should be. But if the person buying this does their due diligence they can buy the cassette in advance so that when the product shows if they don't know how to put it on they can have it scheduled with their local bike shop to do so as I did. Again that is my only negative comment about this product everything else is absolutely positive and it is a great product.

Stable, quiet, easy to setup use. Bought this one for my wife, now she's on it almost daily.

Easy set up, quiet as advertised and has been working great. Integrated easily with apps I wanted like MyWhoosh. Would suggest more guidance upfront on how level (to the floor) it needs to be for the unit to work 100%. Maybe integrate bubble levels?

Seamless experience thus far. Seems well built and will last a lifetime. App interface could use some work.

The trainer works great! It’s quiet & doesn’t experience the “lock up” like my Wahoo Kickr did. I would have given it 5 stars but I’ve experienced a fair amount of dropouts on the power reading. Not sure what’s causing it but it happens a lot.

Have had it for a few months and it has worked flawlessly! What can I say? Works great with Rouvy.

Great trainer at a great price! Easy to set up, install bike and at a great price! Came from a wahoo kicker and wasn’t a fan of a tire driving requiring a trainer tire. This is way quieter and likely more accurate

H3 Plys arrived quicker then expected. Easy to set up. Works well.

I snagged the H3 plus when they dropped the price a few months back. I have my old road bike setup on it… 10 speed Shimano rear cassette. I don’t plan on taking that bike on the road so I just removed my cassette from my rear wheel and used that with the current chain on the bike. Install is very straight forward with easy to understand pictures. I had used a Saris Fluid 2 trainer for a while and this smart trainer is a big step up. I have used it with Whoosh with zero issues. But, honestly I use the Saris app to just pick my wattages and play games on my iPad while I ride more often than not. This allowed me to move my fluid 2 to my work, where I work a lot of nights and weekends. So that was another bonus. I calibrate my trainer every ride before I begin. I’m not sure if it’s overkill, but it allows me to stretch and warmup a bit before I set off. I’m pretty serious cyclist, but I was out of it for a while and I’m older now. I don’t run into any power limitations on the trainer, but this seems to be a limitation between this and the ultra expensive trainers. If you’re a serious incline junkie with ham hocks, you may need to do some more research on that. I’ve had no connectivity issues whatsoever. I usually just use my had to turn the crank a bit and soon as the green light flashes, start up the Saris app. That hasn’t failed yet.

Very nice trainer compared to my previous on-wheel trainer. Seems very accurate and nice and quiet.

Got this trainer cause it seemed like a good deal and that turned out to be correct. It feels like a very premium product, and has been working great. I've used it with Trainerroad for a month now. Never had any issue connecting to it and it is always connected within 10 secs. I was surprised how much the free wheel feels like riding outside. I tried zwift briefly and thought it was really cool how you could feel the hills virtually. It's also very quiet and not much louder than a normal bike is. I previously had a wheel-on trainer and it was so loud. Having something quiet makes it more pleasant to use. I feel like there is now less between me sitting on the couch and riding the trainer. I was really concerned with bike compatibility so here's some helpful info. I am using it with my 12 spd SLX XC mtb and I used an old 9 speed HG road cassette. In erg mode it works great, though I've ordered a 12 spd road cassette to have better gear shifts. (doesn't make sense to get a mtb cassette bc they cost way more). I will say it took me a while to set this thing up and I think the manual could have better descriptions of what it expects you to do. But now it's set up I don't have to touch it for a while, so it's not the biggest problem.

The H3 Plus is very close to the feel of a real ride, and its afforadble This replaced my old Kinetic Road Machine Control which for it's time was great, but the H3 Plus is a big improvement. The direct drive is quiet and stable, and no more tire wear or tire dust. I've tried it with Rouvy (20 rides), Fulgaz (10 rides) and Bkool (11 rides) with no problems connecting to the H3 Plus, HRM and separate cadence unit. The Saris app is great for simple warmups; you can increase/decrease resistance in 10 watt increments. Saris shipped it quickly and the unit is well protected. Setup was easy; nothing to assemble. Just fold out the side supports and plug it in.

Works well, easy to set up, fun way to still ride while the weather is not great.

I started riding gravel this year and fell in love, but then winter hit. Now I have my first trainer and it helps me get through the cold. Love it.

Set up was easy and works well with my 12 speed Shimano drivetrain. Connects with Zwift no problem.

Worked perfectly right out of the box. Slapped a 105 12sp cassette on the hub, dropped the frame on the trainer, slide the thru axle (came with the right adapter) on and tightened it with a 6mm allen key and voila! It connected to Zwift instantly on the first attempt for both resistance control and power. The fly wheel creates a very long spin down time, which took just a little getting used to, but it simulates IRL conditions much better than my wheel-on kicker.

Smooth precise great stable unit smooth integration with Tiuvy

Really love my new trainer. About 4 years ago, bought an earlier version of this same trainer and liked it. Needed a second trainer, so bought the same model. This version is incredibly quiet. The last version was good, but this one is great. Well done, Saris.
