Quick Release Hub Clamp

Mounts/dismounts your bike in
seconds.

Micro-Adjustable Legs

By turning the dial, the
legs can be adjusted +/­10 mm to accommodate
uneven surfaces for
complete trainer stability.

Tubular U-shape Leg

Not just for unique design, but
reduces weight and provides
great stability.

Bolt Type Left Side Coupling

Fits 120 – 145 mm standard hub
width. For quick release type hub

only. For xed nut hub, replace

to the optional "Longer Left Side
Coupling Bolt" (SKU:400-1285-00).

U-Leg Hole for Smaller Wheel

Use this hole for all 24", 26", and
650c wheels to keep the bike
horizontal.

Tandem Magnet Type Unit

A world's rst. Primary magnet is
engaged for the rst 7 levels then

the second magnet kicks in for
the next 6 levels.
Gives you the widest range of
resistance of any trainer.

Foot Pedal

Engage, release and adjust
tire contact in one action.
Remembers location so if
you use the same bike, no
new set up is needed.

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.

Choose the pivot hole for your bike size on the

main pillar. Some 26" may t better in the upper

hole.

First, disassemble the pivot bolt.

Remove the alloy sleeve and plastic washers.

Insert the alloy sleeve into the selected hole,
and put the plastic washers on both sides.

Attach the U-Leg to the main pillar.

Check that the plastic End Plugs on the U-Leg are
inserted completely and aligned with the hole.
Then insert the pivot bolt and tighten down the screw
using the supplied M5 hex wrenches.

The center bolt is
left intentionally
loose in the
package. Lightly
tighten it.
Check to make
sure each leg
moves smoothly.

Be sure you fully insert the plastic

End Plugs to the U-Leg before
putting the pivot bolt through them.

Failure to do so will cause a

problem that the legs will not align
in same height.

How To Install Mag Unit & Foot Step

Required Tools: 1x 5mm Hex Wrench (supplied)
1x 10mm Spanner

(not supplied)

The Mag resistance unit and Foot Step now need to be
installed to the frame.

Attach the Foot Step onto the bracket on the Step-Bar rst,

put the Mag unit over the Foot Step, then tighten both
brackets together with the pivot bolt (see Fig. H).

!

Overtightening the pivot bolt will cause the
Foot-Step 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 slowly by its own weight at this point.
If the pivot bolt is too loose, the Mag unit
will drop quickly and you may be pinched
between the frame and Mag unit.

Adjust the tightening torque for the best

operation.

If the tire touches the plastic housing, it will damage them
both. Adjust the mag unit position horizontally to avoid this
problem.
To set the tire as close to center as possible, loosen the back
side screws and slide the mag unit sideways. Then re-tighten

both screws rmly.

If your tires size is

smaller than 26 x 1.50"

, you
will need to install the supplied Z-shaped Small Wheel
Adapter between the Mag unit and the base plate.
(The tire size is clearly indicated on its side wall.)

The direction of the Z-adapter is xed so follow the

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

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