Oreka O7 information
I can't install my mountain bike with a 148 mm axle on the bike trainer.
With the bike trainer, you will receive a conventional Quick-Release axle, so if you are riding a bike with a longer axle length (some mountain bikes, for example), if you will need to contact the Oreka Support team to order a longer axle.
I have a Sram 12-speed road cassette. Can I install it on the bike trainer?
The standard core is compatible with Shimano and Sram 10 and/or 11 speed cassettes. However, in the last year we have been working on having a core compatible with Sram XDR 12v cassettes. To get one, you will need to contact the Oreka Support team and request one.

Suddenly the tape is very hard and the hardness does not change

Conectivity
Bluetooth
- You must ensure your location is activated for both IOS and Android. In IOS the application must have permission to use your location.
- If you have already linked another device, make sure it is not still linked to the previous device.
ANT+
- If the connection is lost, check that the antenna ant+ of the PC has no nearby metals that could interfere with the signal path. Similarly, the antenna should not be more than 2m from the roller.
- Add table of software and platform compatibilities and what works in each one (in the dropbox general. It needs checking.)
It seems that the bike trainer is not changing its hardness
- The roller does not seem to change the resistance.
- Check the table of compatibilities for any incompatibilities.
