USING THE INDOOR TRAINER FEATURE
The Indoor Trainer feature allows you to measure power with your iBike when using many
models of indoor trainers and rollers. Consult the iBike software, "Device/Edit Trainer
Settings..." for a complete list of supported trainers and rollers.
When using the indoor trainer function your iBike must measure the speed of the rear
wheel. Therefore, you will need to use a wireless mount, with speed sensor mounted on
the rear wheel. The iBike uses the trainer profile to estimate the power required to
produce the measured rear wheel speed.
The Indoor Trainer function is standard on the iAero and is an optional upgrade for the iPro
and iSport. For iSport models only, the Indoor Trainer function is installed at the factory,
or by an authorized iBike dealer.
Here's how turn the Indoor Trainer function "On":
1) Make sure your speed sensor is mounted on the rear wheel of your bike

profile for your indoor trainer, "Device/Edit Trainer Settings..."

authorized iBike dealer can change the profile for your iSport.

to find "User". If "User/No" is on the screen, click the center button to make the
word "Yes" flash. Then, click the center button so that "User/Yes" is displayed
without any flashing.
