training on rollers

I bougth rollers to train at home, I thought it was a good idea so I have to keep the balance, and be aware of my riding while training that was why i didnīt want a trainer, for a time it worked very well,
but latetly I keep falling to the front of the rollers, like my weigth is way in the front of the bike, I havenīt change any of the setting on my bike or my rollers, but I just can not do it any more

any suggestions to how to solve this
thank you very much

I can't think of any reason that you'd suddenly start falling off the rollers once you'd learned to ride rollers unless something on either your bike or the rollers changed. double check that your front tire is on top of the roller, and not on the front or back side. Does your bike still ride the same on the road?

Yes, i rides the same, I went on a very tough race, I took a two week rest, pump the tire pressure up a little and I coulndīt do it anymore, but i fall to the front, like I am riding of the rollers,
