  • I’ve just got on my rollers for the first time in a couple of years. They feel like there’s too much resistance, I remember them feeling much more free spinning. They stop after a couple of seconds when coasting. I might be misremembering though, are they normally like this? Bearings all seem fine and the frame is nice and square.

  • are they normally like this?

    The lack of inertia is normal. Take the bike off and give them a spin by hand to see if you also have excessive bearing resistance. Rollers are very sensitive to tyre pressure, more so as the roller diameter goes down. Add air to make riding easier.
