7.4 Alignment
Your magnet array should be level with your bike’s wheel rim. The trainer is shipped
aligned for a standard 700c road wheel or 29” mountain bike wheel. If you have a
different wheel size, you may need to adjust the resistance unit up or down.
Possible symptoms of misalignment:
• Magnets come into contact with wheel or tire.
• The trainer is not able to hit your resistance targets.
Alignment steps
With the bike installed in the trainer, and the trainer off, push the resistance unit
over to one side, until the magnet array touches the wheel rim. Check that the
magnets are level with the rim. If the magnet array is sitting too low ( touching the
tire ) or too high ( partially above the wheel rim ):
1. Loosen both mounting bolts and move the resistance unit as needed.
2. Re-tighten the mounting bolts.
3. Recheck the height, parallelism, and concentricity alignment.
