Picked up a 2nd hand but good turbo this week but having not used one before was wondering whether it was OK to use my main road bike on it. I have brought a new cassette which is intended to go on an older rear wheel so happy to switch then over as needed.
Is there anything else I need to consider with regard to using the "good" bike? Obviously I will add general wear to the chain and other moving parts but is there anything else I should be wary of?
I do have an old racer I can use instead but will need some TLC to get into a rideable state; but won't bother if all I need to do is switch the rear wheel out from time to time and use a more basic skewer.
