calibrate,

 

simply

 

pedal

 

up

 

to

 

approximately

 

25mph

this

 

should

revolutions

 

of

if

 

you

 

try

 

to

to

 

slow

 

down

 

to

 

0mph.

 

If

 

it

 

fails

 

to

 

reach

 

the

 

required

 

levels

 

(below),

 

use

 

the

 

adjustment

 

screw

 

on

 

the

 

CompuTrainer

 

by

 

the

 

back

 

wheel

 

to

 

tighten/loosen.

very

 

fine

 

adjustment

 

so

 

small

 

adjustments.
