Well, maybe not wrong, but getting off and back on the saddle without stalling or surging is a skill worth developing.
Nah, that's not it, I can do it, but in order to prevent a rearward bike squirt from happening my CG has to be unnaturally too far back on the bike and wheelies on rollers are no fun either.
My bike is too long for me as well, I'm sure that isn't a positive contributing factor...
Hence the design incorporated in Trutrainer's product, they allow for the rear wheel to be seated in such a way to prevent this in conjunction with their apparently superior inertia/momentum gadzoookery within their drums.
