7. Solución de problemas

If using a mountain bike with knobby tires, you may need to tighten slightly more or consider a smoother trainer-specific tire for better contact and reduced noise.

  • Ensure the roller is firmly pressed against the tire.
  • Verifique que la presión de los neumáticos sea correcta.

  • Ensure the trainer is on a stable, level surface.
• Bike Instability: Confirm that the quick-release mounting lever is fully engaged and tightened. Adjust the trainer's offset end caps to stabilize the unit on uneven floors.
• Remote Control Not Changing Resistance: Check the cable connection from the remote to the resistance unit for any kinks or disconnections. Ensure the remote is securely mounted and not obstructed.
