Cycling UK Forum

Thank you all for your assistance I will search the time trial forum also as suggested. This was why I asked because if they are doing it granted on 10k plus bikes or are sponsored so repairs are no real issue, then why can't I on my bike? That said I love my bike and would not like to cause unnecessary damage. Cheers

Hi this is my first time on the forum and am reletively new to the cycle scene. I bought a planet x carbon cx bike to extend my outdoor cycling but also the route I ride to work is a puncture hazard zone.... I am looking at getting a turbo trainer to train during the winter, so contacted planet x regarding the spindle size I recalled it was longer than the normal ones. They have informed me that carbon fibre bikes should not be used on turbo trainers as it can cause the frame to twist and crack. Is this the case?? Help appreciated before I buy one as a christmas present. Also would this be the same for bkool trainers as well as the standard ones? Cheers and thanks in advance.
