can i use this on a rear wheel on an indoor trainer?

the cable MAY not be long enough to go rear wheel to handlebars, otherwise = YES

Conceivably, though I'm fairly certain that the wire is long enough to reach to the back wheel. If you wanted to rewire it...

That's what the instructions say. My bike's rear real could not be set up with quick release. The trainer fits nicely over the nuts that hold my wheel on. Have been using it this way for 4 months. The bicycle is sturdy on the trainer without the incuded quick release.

Yes it will work on a trainer. I actually use my bike more by setting it up as a stationary. You just need to make sure to set up the sensors on the back wheel.

It might with some modification. There's a tab on the end of the Balance Buddy towards the axle end that's there so the Balance Buddy doesn't rotate past a certain point. That and the width of your axle may be a problem for using both training wheels and this.

I have put three different bikes on this trainer, only one with the pin provided. Yes, it would work.

I can't be totally sure but if it has a quick release axel, it should work? You have to remove the axel and use the one that comes with the trainer to fit in the holder. Does that make sense?

Maybe an inch and a half, enough that it will make the bike level on an indoor trainer

You can use it on any wheel as long as the screen and the magnetic sender are in line-sight with each other. If you put it on the rear wheel it might be awkward to find a spot where you could read the meter and the meter and the sender can talk to each other - you might be better off getting the wired version where the position does not matter.

Hello and thank you for this information. Our trainers are designed to work with most bicycles that have a 26" - 28" or 700cc wheel. Thank you.

Yes if you secure it with rubber bands and keep the front wheel straight and don't touch it! I also have a bike trainer and it's much better! used one is about $30-$100

Absolutely not what you need! If your bike has a rear coaster brake (pedal pushed backwards to brake) put that in your Amazon search. Try this Avenir 36H Nutted Cruiser Style Rear Wheel with Coaster Brake (Silver, 26 x 1.75-Inch)

Depends on the bike you have. If you can remove the rear tire there should be a bar that goes through it that you replace with the locking bar included with the trainer. If not you line p the back tire bolts with the screws and tighten it down. It's not as secure but it works

All the CycleOps trainers I've seen use a rear wheel. This cyclometer is probably not right for rear wheel applications because the sensor/transmitter must be no more than 70 cm from the mount/receiver. If you want to use the Strada Wireless with a CycleOps product, you'll have to select a set of rollers that will rotate your front wheel. Then you can use it on the road AND on a trainer. Meanwhile, many CatEye wired cylometers have rear wheel mounts you can order and that'll offer another way to acquire ride stats AND use a rear wheel trainer. There's nothing wrong with wired cyclometers, just some people like the (slightly) higher tech idea of wireless. I've used both and could live with either easily.

I don't see why not. The connector goes on the quick connect or axel of rear wheel

I am using it on a single speed / fixed gear bike with a bolt-on track style rear wheel. The nuts and bolts of the rear axle fit into the cups on the trainer and it seems to work very well. I am not using a skewer.

It is designed to be used instead of training wheels, but I bought it to use as an adult speed/safety control on a little hilly street and for crossing streets. To use with training wheels I had to disregard the intallation instructions. The bottom portion that attaches to the bike has a bent angle on one side (couldn't really see why that was needed). I had to reverse the shaft so that the bent part faced out. It works great as my grandson learns when and how to apply the brakes going down hill, an extra push going uphill, and secure feeling crossing streets. A bike store person told me to remove the pedals when the child is ready to start riding without training wheels to make the bike a balance bike. Once they get the feel of balance with feet the wheels go back on. Sounds like a good idea, rather than buying a balance, no pedal bike too.

These training wheels are model specific. If your handy with a welder you could modify it to fit, or you could try the manufacturer of your bike to see if they have training wheels. These particular training wheels mount over the foot pegs of the bike. You could also measure between your bikes foot pegs and talk to the seller to get the spacing and see if it would work for your bike.
