trainer rocking

Shoulder injuries are awful. I'm so sorry you have to go through this.

Thanks, OakLeaf... really appreciate that... there are far worse things in the big picture of life I know, but just yuck... ty.

you should always check and make sure the legs on the cycleops are fully and evenly spread out. I find that I have a tendancy to lift up on the trainer when I put the bike in and then forgetting to readjust the legs and only remember when I start rocking.

just a thought.

Yea, really good point. Thanks. I've got it on a CycleOps mat on carpet. Hard to tell if even because the surface is not rock hard.

Thought this might help... where the skewer is locked into the trainer it's not 100% dead-locked tight. It's secure, read: not gonna slip out. But, has some shifting play. Wondering if this is increasing the rocking riding it? I can adjust to tighten it as long as there is not risk of damaging anything. IDK?

mine is quite tight, but I would check it out with the bike shop since my bike guy set up everything for me at the shop and then I just duplicated that at home.

Mine is tight, too. You may have to remove the bike and adjust the lock ring (the part on the left of the picture... that thing can move further inside).
