I have just borrowed a Mag trainer from a friend at work to use for my cardio training. The problem is it did not come with a instrustion book so I was guessing on bike setup. What I found was that when I got off the bike there was a fair amount of rubber on the floor so I was wondering if I have to much pressure on the wheel. Any info. or suggestions would be great. Oh and it is a Magturbo by Minoura

I have the Minoura Mag and do not have your problem with rubber.
Do you have the adjustable tension model with a cable mounted to your bar?
Likely you have either the pressure too high on the tire or the resistance too high.

I went an took a look at the website as I was there I down loaded the instruction manual and found out that the tension was to tight on the wheel also I noticed that the tire was low on air , bad lighting in the basement could not see an I was to much in a rush to try out the unit.
