How does one attach the bike to the stand. Please respond ASAP as I need to start training?

Replace your bikes quick release with the one it comes with. Don't make it too tight when you screw it in. The ends nicely fit into the bike stands cups. You can adjust the tension on the back wheel. That too does not have to be tight - your gears make for the workout same as riding outside. I put the ike and stand on a yoga mat to reduce noise. I would not suggest using this in an apartment house. It will probably drive your downstairs neighbors crazy.

it hooks onto the bike's axel ... you'll need street tires not off road otherwise it makes a lot of noise

In the center of the back wheels there are small holes (I don't know the name of them.) There are bolts that go from the stand into those holes. (We had to have one replaced because it didn't fit! They sent us a whole new stand, we removed the one bolt that we needed, and shipped the rest of it back. Very sad.) Anyway, when you put the bike up on those bolts, it fits right in and lifts the back wheels off the ground. Easy -- IF the bolts fit. Be aware that you are sitting up about 2 inches off the floor so you have to be careful about balance and speed. And it is noisy if you set any tension against the wheel. But you don't have to worry about all those snow storms! <hehe> In the center of the back wheels there are small holes (I don't know the name of them.)

I would suggest getting someone to help. First you need to remove the stand. Also, you need to get a bracket kit that is compatible. I bought mine at Best Buy. Mine was not difficult to figure out once the bracket kit was attached. But, I had a handy man in my building help since it was a bit heavy to lift.

As with any normal bike, standing wont ruin the equipment. However, with this stationary bike,the arm bars are constantly moving, so standing may be difficult. (your arms have to hold onto something)

Kick stand is not included with this bike. You have to buy it separately if you need one.

No. The stand will keep the bike upright. With the weight of a rider on the seat, it would tip over and probably damage your rear wheel. A proper trainer would probably be what you would need. Perhaps your could borrow one.

I only tried kids' bikes in this -- hubby thinks bigger bikes may be a bit tight in the stand. Good luck!

You need to put it into the ground. There are other models that come with a stand. Just keep looking. I love mine!!!

There is no kickstand with the bike. Should be an easy fix at your local bike shop. We hang our bikes at home or use the many local bike racks around town. We have taken the kickstands off all our bikes that came with one.

That's a pretty heavy bike, but I think the stand is heavy duty enough because it's all steel and all the weight is basically sitting on the bottom bracket. One thing you should know is it uses the little approximately 2" x 1" square opening I have seen kick stands mounted, and it has a T-bolt allows you to fasten the bike frame to stand just behind the bottom bracket. I hope that makes senseAlso, I would suggest drilling holes four legs and bolting the stand to four foot plywood square to stabilize it from tipping, etc. Hope this helps.

You would have to make a bracket or use maybe a u bolt with some rubber padding. I like most just mounted it under the handle bars in the frame. Bolted and zip tied. Rides well

I have a full dresser Yamaha that weights about 850 dry and put the stand under it by myself and pulled the bike up and raised it up level with a 1/2" ratchet. I have also used it under one of the wheels of the car with the same ratchet. I hope that helps.

I believe you want one bike stand and that will support two bikes. I have no idea what the two bike stand is for over $100.

hi june, Not at all. The stand will support the bike, but not enough with the rider on it. Also, the wheels make contact with the stand, and does not allow for rotation.

I simply attached the rear wheel by tightening the hand screw on the left side of the trainer. I did not remove anything from the bike to do this

Once you have the bike positioned on the stand, The "T" threaded bolt is passed through the small gap at the bottom of the upright bar for the bicycle seat. There should be "V" type shape on the bicycle frame which will sit on the bike stand. The "T" bolt passes through the bicycle frame and secured on the bike stand. Hope this helps.
