Important Notes

• For use with a normal 2-wheel bicycle only. Do not use a tandem, recumbent, track racer or

other.

• Fits rear wheel hub width between 120mm and 148mm with the standard 9mm quick release

skewer type or the plain hub nut type.

Cannot be used on any other bikes such as 1) narrower than 120mm width, 2) equipped with

internal transmission, and 3) 12mm thru axle type hub.

• The right side coupling has a black plastic cover (Grommet) in standard on LR341. This is for

protecting the quick release skewer's nut from scratching, but if you use a bike with the nut
type rear wheel axle, remove Grommet for better stability.

• Fits tire size between 24" and 700x45c (ETRTO 47-622). To use 24x1.75" or smaller tire, install

the supplied Small Wheel Adapter between the Mag unit and the base bracket. 29" tires cannot
be used on LR341.

• Some assembly required. Use correct tools (10mm spanner and M5 & M4 hex wrenches).

The kit contains only M5 hex wrench.

• Use the supplied rear quick release skewer for maximum stability. The hub clamping parts

(couplings) ts the supplied quick release skewer only. Minoura is not responsible for any
problem caused from using your own skewer.

Please read carefully before use

• Use on at and level oor or ground for your safety.

• Adjust the roller pressure to the rear tire properly in order to maximize your tire life.

Tire and roller contact will eventually wear both your tire and the trainer roller.
Wipe the tire surface to remove any solid dust away before setting the bike on the trainer in
order to maximize the drive roller life.

• Check and adjust the remote shifter cable tension properly when you cannot set at L or H even

though you turn the shifter lever.

• Touching the spinning wheel and/or any other moving parts while training may cause serious

injury. Keep children and pets away from the trainer when in use.

• It is not possible to convert the remote controllable resistance unit to the non-remote version

one. Removing the remote shifting device means xing the resistance level at the highest
range.

• If you feel any strange noise or smell, stop using LR341 immediately and contact the retailer

where you purchased the trainer.

• To protect the oor or carpet from stain and sweat during workout, we recommend you to put

a sheet or mat under the trainer and bike.

• Any warranty will be void if you use LR341 for other purpose than instructed.

About Quick Release Skewer

A Quick Release Skewer is a device used
to easily install or remove the wheels from
your bicycle frame.
Most sport bicycles come with a Q/R. We
suggest when using the trainer you replace
the Q/R to the supplied one to promise a
correct fit.

To remove your current Q/R, pull the lever

1

down to open the Q/R.
Then turn the nut counter-clockwise until it
comes off.

Set the Q/R lever angle between
the 12 and 4 o'clock position.
Any other angle may cause the
bike to detach from the couplings.

☓

Firmly push the lever into the locked position
with your palm.

then insert into the hole of the hub. Attach
another acorn spring and the nut on the
opposite side. Temporarily tighten the nut.

Feel resistance
on your palm

Raise up the lever. Adjust the nut tightening
until you feel resistance on your palm when
the lever becomes the position that it aligns
to the shaft.

When you tighten the Q/R, make

!

sure the wheel is located exactly in
the center of the bike frame.
Do not leave the wheel at an angle.

If the Q/R has not been tightened

proper-ly, it could cause the wheel
to come out of the frame and
cause an accident.
