The resistance unit should be tight enough to pre-
vent the tire from slipping during accelerations.
A small indentation will be seen in the tire when
tightened properly. If slipping occurs, increase tire
compression by re-latching the resistance unit. Pull
the yellow cam lever further down while performing
the initial unlatching step.
Note: If the cam lever pops open while riding, move
the resistance unit and mount it to the front bolt
hole as shown below. Most tires will fi t using either
mounting hole. Larger tires including 29" MTB tires
require mounting to the rear hole.
Note: Be certain your tires are infl ated to their proper
pressure. Knobby tires will cause noise and vibration.
For best results, use a slick-tread tire. Note that any
stationary trainer will increase the wear on your tires.
Using harder rubber composed tires will improve
their life.
1.5 Detaching your Bike from the Trainer
Pull the yellow cam lever down and rotate 90 de-
grees clockwise to unlatch the resistance unit. Pivot
the resistance unit down to allow clearance for your
rear wheel. Latch the resistance unit by rotating the
cam lever 90 degrees counter clockwise and pushing
up.
Hold your bike by the seatpost. Rotate the yellow
skewer clamp knob counter clockwise to release
your bike.
