Tandem on Smart Trainer
A couple of our friends ride their tandem on an old wheel on style smart trainer. They are looking to upgrade to a modern trainer where you take the wheel off and mount the rear triangle directly on the trainer. Has anyone done this?
Rear spacing seems to be the issue. They have a Co Mo with standard 145 mm spacing. The trainers offer a lot of adapters but not for 145. There’s a Trek adapter that is 141 qr but I’m not sure about squeezing the rear triangle 4 mm. Any thoughts?
Thanks
