PART II
USING BICYCLE TRAINERS
Potential Damage
CAUTION
Improperly mounting a bike in a trainer, or using
one that is not compatible with your particular
bike frame can cause serious damage.
This kind of damage is not covered by the GT
Limited Warranty.
Ask you dealer for help with trainers, the right one
and the correct way to use it.
If you ride a trainer that requires removal of the front
wheel and clamps the fork dropouts: Be sure your fork
quick release is tight! Relative movement will wear
parts, weaken and damage your bike.
If you ride a trainer that holds the bike up by
clamping the rear quick release between two cones:
Take o the nice, lightweight quick release that came
with your bike. Substitute a heavy, classic all steel
quick release and clamp it tight! Relative movement
will wear parts, weaken and damage your bike. Note
that many modern quick releases will not t the
clamping cones in this kind of trainer because their
shapes are incompatible.
Be particularly cautious with a carbon frame or fork.
Carbon is relatively soft, not abrasion resistant. If
there is any relative movement, carbon will wear
quickly.
If you ride a trainer a lot, consider using an old bike:
Corrosion from sweat will take it’s toll. Weight is
irrelevant. Save wear on your expensive components.
Trainers: Risk To Children
WARNING
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY FROM BICYCLES
MOUNTED ON STATIONARY TRAINERS,
EVEN WHEN THE BICYCLE IS NOT IN
USE.
Spinning wheels attract childrens attention and
present a serious risk to young ngers.
Children have also been known to rotate
cranks by hand on bicycles left unattended
on stationary trainers, putting themselves
at risk of serious injury.
