If the caliper rubs, its not compatible
Or you just view that as a necessary but minor thing to do when mounting a disc bike on a turbo. I've got that Tacx trainer and I have to loosen the rear disc caliper. It's marginal but if you don't it's just enough to make the drive train a little noisy - still workable but not perfect.If the caliper rubs, its not compatible
A matter of seconds to do and no issue to me, but perhaps it could be do someone not particularly mechanically minded.
Can't speak for other trainers but can imagine disc caliper fouling to be a relatively common thing. I don't see the Neo2 as being particularly wide.

But when you have people who do not have a clue about calipers it is not compatable.

Looks alright to me
Hence why I said "but perhaps it could be do someone not particularly mechanically minded"
Yep mine looked about like that - it will fit, but it was pushing the frame just enough for me to notice the gears not running as smoothly as they should. loosened bolts and all now good.
Its a doddle to do, see example photo.
My TT bike has narrow stays fits my Neo2 but my touring bike with 4 pot Hope calipers is very tight against the body. A few turns of two bolts everything sorted.
WASN T POSSIBLE TO REMOVE THE DISC FROM BODY ?

It will if I loosened the bolts, I don't bother as my bikes on and off the trainer daily

Its maybe a doddle for you and me, but one of the jobs i did last week was remove a caliper bolt from a R3, the guy was trying to undo it by turning it clockwise, rounded of the allen key bolt, So it could be an expensive doddle of a job. There are a lot of people who have not got a clue. Thats why i am always busy doing bike repairs.Its a doddle to do, see example photo.

Sorry not the disk but the clamp of the disk

All turbos need some basic set-up. If anyone cant do it then they need to call a practical friend

We have a Neo 2T. My bike is rim brake so no issue. Other half has a Liv Langma which was just about going on without using axle spacers, but when I read the booklet it said to fit an axle spacer (supplied) on the disc side. We have done so and that has increased the flywheel to caliper clearance without making fitting the bike to the trainer any more difficult. If you haven't fitted the spacer, I suggest that you try it.
