    Hello there.

    Can you not just put the defy on the trainer?


    Good bikes btw, I have one too.

    Just be aware, I stuck my defy on the trainer using the standard quick release levers (against the trainers instructions) and the bike slipped out of the turbo trainer during a standing sprint. This resulted in me nearly face planting the fridge. No damage other than scratches, could of been worse though.

    Don't use the defy's squared shaped quick releases, use the ones provided with the trainer if instructed!
