Assembling Basic

8 With handle H the roll of the mag unit can be moved to and from the tire of the bike
(fig. 5 and 6). When handle H has been folded, knob R can be used to regulate the pressure
of the roll against the tire. Make sure the roll is firmly placed against the tire so that slipping
of the tire is not possible.
Alteration in mounting of bicycle with different wheel diameter
Before assembling the complete handle to the frame, see nr. 5 of the instructions, you need
to place the heightening or extension pieces.
Wheel diameter 610 - 640 mm: assemble heightening piece W with 4 bolts, nuts and rings (fig.7).
Wheel diameter 690 - 720 mm: assemble extension piece Z (fig. 8).
Tip
Before using the CycleForce, after unfolding the trainer, check to see that grip E has fully
returned to its original position. This will prevent damage to the frame.
- Make sure that the unit does not fall on the flywheel during assembly. This could create an
imbalance in the axis, causing vibrations.
- Make sure that the tyre is well inflated (at least six atmosphere).
- ATB tyres should preferably have completely or partially smooth profiles. Rough profiles can
cause noise and tyre slippage.
- Never brake abruptly while using the CycleForce. When the brakes are applied to the rear
wheel, the flywheel keeps on turning. This results in unnecessary wear and tear to the rear tyre.
- Regularly check to see whether the bolts and nuts of the CycleForce are tight.
- Tests show that the unit will not overheat during high performance. Lengthy, intensive use could
cause the magnetic unit's housing to heat up substantially. After use, allow the unit cool off
before touching.
