Work as intended.
Work as intended. I bought two for my Ice VTX 2 front wheels. My feet would occasionally touch the ground when trike was mounted on wahoo kicker. Now I have no issues. Seem sturdy and look nice. Good purchase.

Works fine, good value
This wheel riser works fine and I have not had any problems with it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it is plastic and seems like it would likely wear out faster than a higher grade material.

Works great
I bought this to secure my front tire while my bike is being stored. I don't have a kickstand so I needed something to keep my bike secure while I'm not using it. Works great, small and compact and very sturdy. I'm very happy with it so far. I highly recommend buying it.

Great buy
My bike trainer did not come with a front wheel stabilizer. Bigger issue was my wheel sat lower than the rear one. Perfect height and couldn’t beat the price!

Cheap and missing 1/4 foam pads, but it works
This is a cheap tool. The brand label is upside-down and the bottom only has 3 of the 4 foam pads (the 4th isn't even in the bag, it must have never been installed). Fortunately, because I'm using this on a carpeted floor, I don't care.The block has nested contours for road bike tires and mountain bike tires. If you ride on knife-edge 1/2" tires, this won't protect your tire from flat spots as well. If you ride a big wheel bike, why the heck are you trying to put it on a riser block in the first place?...If I had hardwood or tile floors, I would be annoyed.If I cared how it looked, I would be annoyed.If I were annoyed, I would remind myself that I bought this piece of plastic for $5.

Great Purchase!
We bought these to go along with our new CycleOps Mag Trainers and they definitely work nicely to keep our bikes leveled. Without them, even if it only a inch difference or so, makes you still feel that you are riding downhill which for us, is not what we wanted so these definitely met our expectations for a level ride completely.Our bikes specs are Diamondback Sorrento MTB's with Chaoyang Hornet 27.5 x 2.1 tires and the front tire fits nicely into the riser block. The risers also have anti-skid pedals which keeps them from sliding when mounting or dis-mounting our bikes while on our basement vinyl tile floors so the anti-skid pedals work great.Very good price and they appear to be made of very strong hard plastic and think they will last a long time with solid regular use.

Stop the rocking
I put my tadpole trike up on rollers when the weather is to bad to go out. The trike would rock forward and back sone. With two of these under my front wheels the trike rocks much less

Very good riser for the price
This riser is really made for road and hybrid bikes,a bit too shallow and narrow for offroad bikes.Im using the Kurt trainer and the height is almost perfect.Doesn't slide that much and is dead quiet,the bottom has some foam pads to stop it from sliding on tile or hardwood floors but most people use riding mats anyways..Some other risers I used sometimes you can hear the tire squeaking on the riser.Material rise the area where the tires sits has a bit of flex.Not too sure how long it would last under everyday usage but from what I see for the price its a great riser.

Affordable, sturdy
It never feels "firm" am not sure why and the front wheel seems to lean to either side often, but hey it's my first one and the issue could be my trainer and not the front block.
