Ok, I only read this whole thread now...well not all of it, in fact I skipped a lot so hope I'm not repeating anything. But to me it seems like we're giving this guy waaaay too much attention...clearly thats what he wants...I mean who goes onto a cycling forum and belittles cyclists, sounds like a sad old man to me...probly child issues...maybe an orphan or sumthin...who knows.

Or you can just set ur trainer up at the starting gates like the pros It might not be the 5 hrs later tho.

Ok lol, that makes sense. That'll be a hell of a mission tho. Changing tyres between indoor training rides and outdoor rides, almost warrants buying another rim to slap the whole thing on. I bought it 2nd hand, but the guy who used it before didn't have a special tyre, and there was no marks on the cylinder from the silver being removed, so I assumed that it would be fine. He did mention that u get special tyres for it, but I didnt realise they were a necessity. Do u get hybrid tyres? for both indoor training and outdoor? Could imagine they wouldnt be very efficient on the road tho. Thanks for the replies Sean

I purchased a giant cyclotron mag indoor trainer. I have absolutely no problems with the unit...works perfectly, however I'm getting quiet a hectic silver deposit on my rear tyre from the roller cylinder, and the ccyclinder is obviously losing the silver and a clear mark is being left. Is this normal? Is there something I'm missing or not doing? Do my tyres need to be hard, as they're getting pretty flat? Any response will be greatly appreciated.
