So I got my reconditioned unit but somebody at the shipping center has trouble counting trainer legs and left out the rear left leg. I submitted a followed ticket on Thursday so hopefully they will respond Monday.
I am wondering if riding the trainer in the meantime as shown in the image would be a bad idea. The front long leg and right leg are strapped to the rocker plate. This was just the easiest thing to wedge under there. I’m not planning on any sprints just regular workouts so not really concerned about things moving. Bad idea?
As a test braced the left leg so I could do a quick ride. Pedaling was all choppy and resistance way off and couldn’t even get cadence up to 85rpm even though I was clearly spinning way higher. So will see what they come back with in response.
