All installed and working ready for first trainer road FTP later.

I have a query on the setup though. I have the Cycleops front wheel [url=standhttp://www.evanscycles.com/products/cycleops/riser-block-ec006294?country=GB&currency=GBP&utm_content=mkwid__pcrid_31998794336_kword__match__plid_&gclid=CP3Ozf7eubsCFSbHtAodiVQAUQ]standhttp://www.evanscycles.com/product ... tAodiVQAUQ[/url]

However, this, even at it's lower setting, is further off the ground than my back wheel when mounted on the unit. Should I bother to level it up, or just man up and pretend I am always going slightly uphill?

    The clue is in the name - Riser block ;)

    Just get on and ride...

    That's the plan. Was I wrong in thinking that you need it for stability? Can I just ride the bike without it?

    Without falling off of course.

    Very very few people manage to fall off bikes on turbos. Be sure to video yourself if you are one of this rare breed. :-)

    You'd have to try very hard, but such a deliberately staged fall would be funnier than an accident :lol:
