hi
when i go on the rollers they feel really stiff and it takes quite a bit more effort than usual.
i have taken it apart and cleaned it and then it was fine but then a day later they were back to there normal stiffness.

i use the rollers in the garage and i have recently have the floor painted so that there is no dust coming from the concrete. i have listened to them and it doesn't sound like anything is caught on them is it maybe a problem inside the actual drum?

i have tacx antares rollers and have owned them for about 9 months and this problem is really mucking up my
training schedule and any help will be graciously accepted.

thankyou :)

    constantly reavalueating the situation and altering the perceived parameters accordingly

    It couldn't be the rubber band being effected by the cold could it?

    thankyou for the replies.

    il go head out and pump up the tires and check the band or might bring it into the house for 1 night and see if that helps :)
