Am I the only one that never happens to? I read this all the time; about trainers grinding up tires, but I never see it. Wheel-on KickR Smart, tires at 95psi and roller adjusted as per instructions. No black dust or excess wear. Conti Super Sport Ultra tires, or something like that. Middle of the road rubber.
