Lighter Flywheel = More Power

Our patented ywheel weighs less for greater
portability but performs as well as a ywheel weighing

35% more. The key is the inside stair-step design for
perfect power transmission when you need it.

This trainer must be used with a completely smooth (no knobs or raised tread) tire.
Failure to do so will ruin the mag unit, your tire, and void any possible warranty.

If you need help, please contact the shop first where you originally purchased this product

screw with using the supplied M5 hex wrenches.

How To Install Mag Unit & Knob Set

Required Tools: 1 x 5mm Hex Wrench (supplied)
1 x 10mm Spanner (not supplied)

The Mag resistance unit and Roller Pressure Knob now
need to be installed to the frame.

First, attach the Knob onto the bracket on the Step-Bar.
Then place the Mag unit over the Knob, and tighten both
brackets together using the pivot bolt and M6 nut. (Fig. H)

Pivot Bolt

!

Overtightening the pivot bolt will cause the
Knob to become inoperable.
Make sure you unscrew (loosen) the pivot
bolt by 1/4 - 1/2 turn once you completely
tightened it.
The Mag unit should be lowered towards the
ground by its own weight at this point.
If the pivot bolt is too loose, the Mag unit may
drop suddenly and come down on your hand

or ngers.

Make sure to adjust the torque properly to
insure proper operation.

Your bicycle tire should be as close to the center of the
roller as possible. (see Fig. I)
If the tire has been touching the plastic housing, damage
will occur to the Mag unit and your tire.
The base bracket has two sets of thread holes for mounting
the Mag unit. Choose the better holes.
Also it can be micro-adjusted and to do so, loosen the
backside screws and slide the Mag unit in the direction
needed to center the tire properly.
Tighten the screws when you have finished.

How To Use Small Wheel Adaptor

If your tires are 26" or smaller and are less
than 1.75" in width, you will need to use the
supplied Z-shaped Small Wheel Adapter.
Your tire size should be clearly marked on the
tires sidewall.

The direction of the Z-adapter is fixed so
follow the arrow printed on the top and make
sure it's pointing toward the front (toward
your bike).
If the drive roller cannot reach the tire, make
sure the Z-adapter has been installed correctly.

Use the original round head bolts for the
Mount Base, and use the supplied hex head
bolts for the Mag unit. (see Fig. J)
