JC Posted October 18, 2012 Share Maybe put a normal road tire on ,it fits perfect on the 29er rim and then your bike will most probably fit! Thanks, I will definitely try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted October 18, 2012 Share The giant one won't take a 29 wheel either. I whip the 26" wheel from the Missus' bike. Gears the same. Its not the wheel, but more the frame size and geometry I think that's exactly what the problem could be. It's almost like I needed 1,5cm more space between the bike and the roller and it would fit.Thanks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockCoach Posted October 18, 2012 Share As said above... Why don't you use an old 26" wheel with a slick tyre. OR buy youself a set of rollers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I am worried about the 26" wheel being compatible with the 29er gears? Pardon my stupidity here.Maybe rollers are a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockCoach Posted October 18, 2012 Share Fat2fit, just make sure the cassette has the same number of gear options. Ie. 9 or 10 speed. Mtb 29er on an IDT? Huh?Mtb 29er on rollers? X2 Huh? That is if your MTB 29er is your only bike. When I first got a set of rollers 20 years ago, I learnt to ride them on a MTB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
