This week it's back to good old fashioned Learn Quick. I've always had an issue training for road cycling but rollers seemed to be right up my street. The allow the bike to move and do not require fixing the bike to train. However, they can be a little difficult to learn to mount and ride. Watch me struggle.

I wonder if someone who is used to biking AND unicycling would master it faster? Unicycles have a 360 degree of error in weight shifts :D
Wuss, just wear an extra layer and go out on the road.
Am I the only one wondering why he is wearing a helmet in his house.
In case he falls off and hits his head
I think if he exert his body weight more onto rear wheel than front wheel That better bcoz front wheel have one roller only, which would slip if you over excert it
Carpet. How to make it harder
A tip for someone learning rollers is don’t put you weight on the front of the bike because it will just fall off the rollers at low speeds
3 succesfull mounts in a row? Challenge accepted!
Angry scottsman shouts at bike.
How cringe it this that the vid is 10:01....😑😅😭
Looks like the front roller is not adjusted correctly
Why does your face look like Ikea
Hi. I managed to mount on the rollers without support today. You encouraged me to do it. Thanks
3:25 Does anyone know the brand and model ???
its 58 hours lol he put minuets
Someone from 2021?
1. don't put your rollers on a shaggy carpet 2. do put them close to the wall so you can hold yourself up to start, and 3. set up a large fan in front of you - you'll need it.
The front roller should be right underneath your front hub. Its quite a little bit too far out. ;D thats why the e-bike worked better, because of the bigger wheelbase. U need to adjust it to the "required length" as u mentioned in the video XD
Get that filthy bike off that carpet
I don’t think you should be riding on carpet. If the carpet at any point touches the roller even the slightest bit, it will cause the rollers to slow down and therefore not work properly
DIO be like; BIKEEEUUUU ROLLLAAAA
I certainly wouldn't be doing this clipless... Maybe with flats. But certainly not clipless.
4:02 Hehe
Try do a manual on this thing
Please try wheeling in these bike rollers
Please try 2he3ling on these bike rollers
If you start next to a wall you can learn it in 1 min. From own experience.
And it is not correctly setup, the front roller is not directly in line with the center of the front wheel,
It’s not long enough
Use brakes so it doesn’t roll right off as easy
"it's cold, it's windy i'ts wet. and you can get sick
its becuz of the fucking carpet and the roller is light weight so it slides come use your brain.}:(
Well done! Pulled my rollers out last week after 15+ years... after 45 minutes I only shuffled off once!....I learned by setting a kitchen chair up on either side to set my foot on to get started.
My bike is in coaster and I got the front wheel cushion. I think I'll stick to my trainer.
4:22 “can’t figure it out in my brain” perhaps i might figure it out in my leg
Why do bri,ish people never say T Because they drank it all.
Hold both of the brakes and then get on nice and easy then kick off
He needs to stop braking
Oh my bum 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just bought mine and waiting for it to snow up in the mail. I am definitely going to be using the wall. Lol
Wow lvworld.infoyHBlIsNb0yQ
Ppl who have this under the wheel kinda stand : it's stonks and free.
It feels like everything is breaking when he falls off
me doing this on 2 rolling pins
I’m just going to point out that that bike needs a full service job
it triggers me that he refuses to hold his front brake when attempting to clipping in initially, "why does it keep falling off?", thats why.
You need to use the breaks to prevent it from sliding back
Put it against a wall!
WALL!
Doesn’t seem to take much to confuse you...
Get a mountain bike!
Awesome video i just got a roller its on its way!!! I cant wait to learn lol
your wheel is too tin making balancing extremely difficult use a thicker tire dude so there is more space for correction but you already probably know that
I tried buying this and it is two times mor expensive than my bike 😂😂
Ur ment to hold the brakes before you get on so it doesn’t move
I feel like there should be something to at least loosely attach the axles to the roller with like cords or something, would really help the experice.
It’s like something complicated without a tutorial. The only way to learn is trial and error and that’s a bad way to make a product
the rug is slippery yo
At the start: FIRE GET TO THE GROUND
I think part of the problem is that the front roller is too far out. The front axle should be right over the roller. This is why you keep rolling off the back. This also makes it harder to ride straight.
I am sad from how he is tracking mud and dirt on his perfectly white and clean carpet
imagine having a bike helmet #dutch gang
My man opens boxes with a hatchet. Absolute legend.
You son of Mr.Bean
Learn BLD 3style!!
get your dirty bike off the carpet
never heard of a wheel block, apparently
(does it once) "having mastered the rollers" 6:22
I suppose the trackstand skill could be usefull for this)
how do u get off
Use just wall to *start* and when you get speed then take hand off duh
This made my day well done .So funny
I still dont get why he says: Day 1, hour 0
It’s the starting point for the timer
Youre ideally supposed to practice in a doorway without clipless shoes
he spread an hour over 2 days?
Would've been easier without the clip less pedals and cleats.
Monday 6:52
He’s waiting to use his classic Scottish (vocabulary) If ya know what I mean...
It hurts when i see how he keeps falling when he is training on his e bike and all i felt that
Shit this was 10 months ago
I feel like I'm watching rossboomsocks
U should take it outside and ride onto the wheels things
He falls so comedicly its amazing
Bro stand on a chair than sit on the bike it will be easy
Mate u have a crap turbo that why
Hi mike im a 11 year old and i can do no handed on the rolers😁
The center of the front Roller has to aline with the quickrelease Axle in a line 90degrees to the floor to don’t Fall of
im a triathalete and this turbo training are cheep if u get something like tracx then its really good trust me
5:09 SPEED AND POWER!
9:59:59
The moment we all have been waiting for 6:42 thank me later
you didn't show how to get off it without a wall...
Can you try bmx pls
i can feel his frustration seeping through the screen
It's easier to learn it with clean bike
Moron
Carpet as a mount surface was probably an additional challenge.
When he said “but there’s other people at the gym” I felt that
I have this and a mountain bike. You might as well fire a machine gun, the thing is loud AF.
*amazing clean white rug on the floor* Mike: brilliant surface to ride a bike!
It's on carpet its moving
U were doing it wrong the whole time u had to sit in the seat and ride so the bike won't get off the platform. Thou u got it 👍
