Minoura RDA INTERRIM ERGO User Manual
MINOURA RDA Inter-Rim Ergo-10 / 50 Instruction manual
Please read this instructions carefully before use
(This figure is the Remote Control version)
Thank you for purchasing Minoura's Inter-Rim Ergo Trainer with RDA and Magturbo.
With its unique rim-drive system, the RDA Inter-Rim Magturbo is our most sophisticated bicycle home
trainer for both road and mountain bikes. Minoura has long been an innovator in stationary trainers, and
our new Inter-Rim trainer continues that tradition. The Rim Drive Action (RDA) system has special drive
pulleys that contact only the rim, avoiding wear and tear to the tire and any unpleasant noise. With the
RDA system, training is smoother, more adjustable, and quieter, and you avoid the cost of replacing worndown tires. The RDA system can handle almost any bicycle with a wheel diameter of 26 to 28 inches and
is the best trainer yet for mountain bikes.
• Read all instructions carefully before use.
• Some assembly required.
• Keep the manual handy at all times. Lost instruction materials can be replaced through
Minoura or your local dealer.
• Do NOT use trainer for any other purpose than instructed.
• The trainer is manufactured to precise standards. You may not disassemble or rebuild it.
• "Inter-Rim" and "RDA" are trademarks of Minoura and may not be copied.

Prior to assembly of the Magturbo unit, locate the
2
two bolts and two washers. Locate the left-side slot
on the Minoura trainer. While placing the Magturbo
unit at the desired position on the inside of the slot,
attach it with bolts and washers by using the included
hex wrench. (see Fig. B)
After installing the Magturbo unit, put the Height
Adjust Knob (maybe an option) through the hole on
the pre-installed bracket on the left side slot, and then
tighten it to the thread on the Magturbo support base.
This optional Height Adjust Knob will help your
adjustment of Magturbo’s height in order to fit the
rubber roller properly to the rim side wall. (see Fig.C)

Mag unit must be assembled on the left side
!
of RDA Trainer and the Assistant Roller Unit
on the right. Do not mistake directions, see
diagram for accurate placement. After
deciding the height of the pulleys tighten
handle securely to avoid damage to equipment and/or rider. (see Fig. D)
Handle with care! Damage may occur if Mag unit is dropped.
!
Install the assistant roller unit to the right side of the frame, using
3
the same process as with the left-side Mag unit. Make sure the
assembly is secure and accurate. (see Fig. E)
The Inter-Rim is foldable and portable without requiring future
disassembly of the Magturbo unit and assistant roller unit.
The Magturbo unit must be on the left side of the Inter-Rim Ergo's
!
frame, and the assistant roller unit must be on the right side.
Both drive pulleys must be adjusted so as not to touch the tire.
You do not need to set this adjustment at this stage of the assembly --- you can adjust it later, before use. Once you have set the
height of the pulleys, you must fix them firmly. If they are loose,
they may break and/or damage your bicycle.

INSTALLING YOUR BICYCLE
Before installing your bicycle, rotate both hub-clamp handles counter-clockwise to
1
create a wide clearance between the couplings. (see Fig. F)
Place the bicycle's rear hub between the two couplings,
2
making sure that the quick-release skewer (or hub nut) is not
yet touching either couplings. Then rotate the hub-clamp
handles clockwise to fix the rear hub. Tighten until securely
fastened, but do not overtighten.
During this attachment process, you should adjust the
position of the rim with checking the Rim Center Position
Indicator on the Assitant Roller. (see Fig. G)
