How To Use Gravity Mode
In Gravity Mode, the pillars move freely by releasing the Lock Pin from the hole. The rear tire will be compressed to
the drive roller at ideal pressure due to applying your weight including the bike weight automatically and directly.
You don't need to micro adjust the roller pressure every time you set any bike on LR961 whatever the tire size is.
And this also helps extend tire life.

At first, turn the Roller Pressure Adjust Knob clockwise in order to set the Drive Roller at the lowest
position.
Set your bike on LR961. At this moment, the pillars are securely locked at Fixed Mode position by
Lock Pins.

Slide the both side Lock Levers inward to release the lock.
Now the rear wheel will come down due to its own weight, then it stops when it reaches the Drive Roller.
Get on the bike and start workout.

Please note that the trainers stability will be different than when in Fixed Mode. The trainer
will feel less stable. To keep your balance and from possibly falling, stay closer to the bike
when getting on/off the bike on LR961.
!
In Gravity Mode, the drive roller is not always in contact with the with the rear tire. This is
normal depending on your riding style. Sudden movements or out of saddle climbing (dancing
on the pedals) could mean loss of contact between the tire and roller.
This is to be expected and we recommend staying seated while in Gravity Mode.
