They're available in most bike shops, this link is just to show the photo. ![]() These could help with entry into the turbo. I know I've made a terribble error somewhere along the setup, but I don't know if it's because I bought the cheapo trainer, or that I'm just stupid and have missed something about the introduction of the bike to the trainer (the instructions are next to useless).Īny advice? Please no laughing - first time poster When I got off the machine my disc brake was red hot from friction, although I'm worried I've compressed the frame somehow by overtightening the trainer as well (it's got better after a night out of the trainer with the quick release off, but still is going to take some adjustment to get back to normal). The instructions say clearly not to use your disc brakes whilst using the machine (I haven't) but to use the trainer - it must be securely clamped. I only used it once in the configuration as the resistance increased as I was cycling - and when I dismounted and disassembled it my rear wheel no longer spins freely. Firstly the quick release lever on the rear wheel just does not fit easily into the 'suction cup' holding the rear wheel in (pops out all too easily on dismount), and the 'screw in' arm seems extremely easy to overtighten. ![]() ![]() I'm having what can only be described as 'issues' setting it up. I bought a turbo trainer (Elite Volare Mag Lite Indoor Turbo Trainer) for my MTB (Giant Terrago Disc '07).
