Disc brakes and wheel off trainers...

[piston9]

Rookie move - put the V20C on the trainer today; first thing I did getting on was squeeze the brakes (As always).

Sigh - with hydraulic calipers, i now have to move them back out to get the wheel on.

A reminder to you all - don't be like me!

Excuse the mess - also I used to have my Ice VTX on the trainer - so now I have to reset the ipad height, etc.... Good excuse to break out some tools I guess

That's a nice setup you've got. Your going to need a spacer for those caliper pads.
Like I did when servicing motorcycles.

Yeah - I have one of those - I just forgot to use it

Sweet setup!!

I'm the local mechanic for my friends' bikes. I can't count how many times they have squeezed the brake levers after removing wheels. It's not that hard to push the pistons back in, but over the years they have trained me to say, "Don't squeeze the brake lever" reflexively whenever a wheel departs from its bike.

Yes, nice pain cave.
