Claims due to improper or careless use will not
be acknowledged. Possible slight wear of the
rubber part comes within the norm.
• Use with narrow tyres or with non-optimum
tyre pressures can permanently damage the Ela-
stogel roller.
• Pay attention to the pressure between tyre and
roller: tighten the plate adjustment screw three
complete turns from when the roller touches the
tyre. If the tyre still slips on the roller, tighten
the screw another turn and make the pressure
on the pedal more progressive. Training with the
tyre slipping will permanently damage the Ela-
stogel roller and the tyre.
• The console that is fitted on the handlebar is
not waterproof. Take care not to sweat over the
console, as the sweat could damage the electro-
nic circuit.
• Do not keep the RealTour in wet or damp pla-
ces. This could damage the electronic compo-
nents.
• Never exceed the MIN level of the Ritmo foot
regulator.
• Use the trainer on a level surface.

ADVICE:
• For less tyre wear and better grip on the
roller, it is advisable to use tyres of 23 mm
width.
• Recommended rear wheel pressure: 7 - 8
atmospheres for racing tyres; 3.5 - 4 atmo-
spheres for MTB tyres. For particular cases,
comply with the pressure recommended by the
tyre manufacturer.
• For quieter use, better grip of the tyre on the
roller and reduced vibration, use slick tyres
(also for Mountain bikes).
• Before use, clean the tyre with alcohol or
water.
• If the pin of the quick release supplied pro-
trudes more than 3 mm from the fixing nut, cut
off the protruding part (fig. 35).
