Will this trainer damage my rims?

I sure hope not! I've been using it for 6 or 8 months and I haven't seen any evidence of damage. the rim contact is rubber and the tension is adjustable. Hope this helps.

Not at all. I've put it quite a few hours on this trainer with not even a smudge on paint/decals on rim.

It works amazing on a trainer. It's quiet. I'll check to see what tire I got for it. I don't remember exactly but I bought it at the same time.

if you are referring to the straps that go over the rims, yes they may firmly contact the rims and could rub--depends on your rims/wheels--not a problem on my bikes tho.The big plastic shells only contact the tires.

The manufacturer says not to but I've been doing it for more than a year. The color around the rim has suffered a tiny bit but not enough to stop me.

Yes it will work on a trainer. I actually use my bike more by setting it up as a stationary. You just need to make sure to set up the sensors on the back wheel.

As long as there is a nut or a quick release on either side of the hub it should work. The trainer has basically a metal cup that covers the hub nut on both sides and keeps the bike in place with tension from both sides of the hub.

Don't know - it looks very substantial, though. l would guess that if your bike can hold your weight, then the trainer will hold both you and the bike. I suggest contacting the manufacturer if you are worried.

Do u have a smaller bike? I have 700 size tires & it works perfect. Not sure why your pedals would be hitting the trainer.

It's slick but it becomes tacky with friction, your call for trainer use. Tubes are tubes; I've run 1 1/2"s - 2 3/4"s in them just fine. Shoot for the lower for higher psi.

Yes it will. The gearing has nothing to do with the trainer other than changing the effort.

I have 29in Trek mtn bike and this trainer did not fit my wheels. There wasnt enough clearance between the floor and my tire.

Yes, and it will fling bits of rubber all over your walls and floor. You need to purchase special tires. You should probably get them at a bike shop.

Honestly, I don't know. I bought this Bike Lane Trainer as a gift for someone. I have never used it myself, so I can't answer this question. Sorry.

It is a very expensive training aid. I would recommend a bicycle and remove the wheeles.

Hello and thank you for your inquiry. Our product is designed for a quick release rear axle. However, it can also work by simply tightening the trainer to your rear axle. If this fits securely over the bolts, the trainer will still work. I hope this information helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Yes. It connects to horizontal support bar, so training wheels would not affect it.

I think it would... A 650 wheel is just a smaller wheel.. The trainer allows you to make adjustments
