Typically, most stationary trainers clamp onto the rear wheel - by way of the quick-release "end knobs"

But...... I called two manufactures and they could not answer the following question (both cycleops and balckburn)

Will a bolt on rear wheel, where there is a nut and axle (like on a fixie or single) fit into the stationary trainer clamp. The two arms that clamp on. Will those cup arms fit over the nut of a fixed or single speed?

Like the picture below

Thank you for time and help

Yes, you can. There are special clamps made specifically for bolt on wheels, although the regular clamp may work.

This is probably obvious, be certain to get a trainer with adjustable resistance. It would be most convenient if you get one that is adjustable while using the trainer.

or get rollers.. if you need to get a fork stand and resistance unit too.

rollers are good for form, trainers are good for strength and both will work with a single speed.

I use my fixed gear on a CycleOps trainer. No problems. See sig for a picture.

Excellent. Thanks for the photos.

I'm considering the Rim drive minoura nashbar has on sale, as i heard mags are too noisy for apartments and fluids are too expensive for me

I have a Minoura MagTurbo and it works fine with my FG.

I tried an older minoura trainer and it would not work on the overall spacing and hold the single speed securely

I have one of those red Ascent trainers, and it works fine with my Rush Hour.

Check out the 1-Up. The axle holders are straight conical and work magnificently with regular track nuts. And if you have a Phil Wood rear, and you get the Kiss-Off conical axle washers, they are exactly the same size as the axle holders so you get a rock-steady mounting.
