Set-‐Up
To prepare your Revbox Erg for use, please set it up as follows:
1.
Take your new trainer unit and stabilizer leg out of the box.
2.
Fit the short quick release skewer to lower front of Revbox unit.
3.
Attach the stabilizer leg to the Revbox unit using this short quick release skewer –
make sure the leg is pushed in as far as
possible
, so there is almost no gap between the leg and the unit, and the guide plates are resting on the stops, then tighten the
skewer
as tight as possible to fix the stabiliser leg securely in place
.
4.
Mount a suitable cassette to the freehub body.
5.
Fit the long quick release skewer to the trainer through the cassette/freehub axle.
6.
Mount your bike to the Revbox Erg unit: Remove the rear wheel from your bike, and fit it to the trainer so that the dropouts
rest on the long quick release axle, then make sure the quick release is done up tight
. (This is usually easiest achieved with
the gears set in the smallest sprockets).
7.
Adjust the rear foot of the Revbox so it sits flush against the floor – this is most accurately achieved with a rider on the bike.
8.
