Which rear wheel - turbo trainer

[ssray]

I have a 2017 giant escape disc, I'm going to bolt it to a turbotrainer, I have a turbotrainer tyre and I want a rear wheel for it, which ebay cheapest wheel will fit? I don't need a break

Almost any will fit, provided that you have the correct cassette spline. I have used an old shimano wheel I had that was running true.

I've found that as the turbo drive roller is unlikely to be exactly aligned with the rear axle, there is some sideways force on the wheel. I'm pleased that the old wheel I use has adjustable cup and cone bearings which will take a lateral loading, and can be tweaked occasionally.
