Common Sense Precautions
Before starting any exercise program, consult with
your physician or health professional. He or she can
help establish the exercise frequency, intensity and
time appropriate for your particular age and condition. If you have any pain or tightness in your chest,
an irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, feel faint,
or have any discomfort while you exercise, STOP!
Consult your physician before continuing. Failure to
follow any of these safeguards may result in injury or
serious health problems.
· Do not remove feet from pedals while cycling.
· Do not attempt to ride the bike at high RPM’s or in
a standing position until you have practiced at
lower RPM’s.
· Do not place fi ngers or any other objects into
moving parts of the trainer or bicycle.
· Keep children and pets away from your bike and
the trainer while in use. Do not allow children to
ride on your bike.
Road provides true road like feel for longer
rides.
Interval provides slightly less resistance
at moderate speeds while giving you leg
burning resistance for high speed intervals.
Mountain delivers gear grinding resistance
for high power workouts.
This user guide will take you through setting up the
TM

Pro trainer, and thoroughly explains how to use the CycleOps SuperMagneto
Pro’s four power curves to give you an edge over the

push the cam lever against the resistance unit.
Lift your bike up by the seatpost and insert the right
side (drive side) of the skewer into the fi xed cone on
the corresponding side of the frame.
Align the left side of the skewer with the adjustable
cone, lining the notches in the cone up with the
quick release handle/lever. Rotate the yellow skewer
clamp knob as shown below to secure your rear
wheel into the trainer. Securely tighten the knob
until tightly in place.
Note: Your bike does not need to be centered on the
roller for it to function properly
Pull the yellow cam lever down and rotate 90 degrees clockwise to unlatch the resistance unit. Push
the resistance unit towards your rear wheel until the
roller contacts the tire. Latch the resistance unit by
rotating the cam lever 90 degrees counter clockwise,
while holding the resistance unit. Compress the
roller against the tire by pulling up on the cam lever
as shown below.

The resistance unit should be tight enough to prevent 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 relatching the resistance unit. Pull
the yellow cam lever furthur down while performing
the initial unlatching step.

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 lever counter clockwise to release your
bike.
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.

Intensity and duration of training will vary drastically from athlete to athlete. Whether you are training to
increase endurance, to lose weight, to be at the front of the pack on your weekly group ride, or are warming
up for races, the CycleOps SuperMagneto
more. The four settings offer four distict power curves, each calculating the power you must use to maintain
the corresponding speed. The four progressive curves of the CycleOps SuperMagnetoTM Pro start with lower
power and quickly ramp up as your speed increases.
TM
Pro offers enough variety to address all these training needs and
Easy Setting
This setting is the easiest curve on the CycleOps
SuperMagneto
TM
Pro. This will give inexperienced
riders a great place to start, while giving stronger riders a great place to cool down or recover.
Road Setting
This setting gives you a gentle road like feel. A
lightly progressive curve folllows your cadence up to
speed and allows you to ride at a comfortable speed
and resistance.
You can change the resistance of the trainer to meet your unique goals and fi tness levels. As you get fi tter
and your goals change, the CycleOps SuperMagnetoTM Pro grows along with you.
Interval Setting
This setting provides low steady state power with
the ability to deliver plenty of resistance as you bring
your bike up to speed.
Mountain Setting
This is the hardest, most progressive setting on the
CycleOps SuperMagnetoTM Pro. It can deliver mountain climbing resistance for high power and slow
speed workouts.
