Direto X (installed via through-axle) with Rizer?

Hello,

I would like to ask if the Direto X is compatible with the Rizer in case that the road-bike is installed via through-axle ? I have not tried it out yet, but it seems as if my bike-front can be "lifted" without problems when attached via through-axle with Direto X.

As far as I had understood, this possibility of vertical movement of the front wheel was the main criteria when deciding if the bike-trainer is compatible with the Rizer.

Could you please check or do you have any experiences in this regard?

Thank you.

Best regards
Gunnar

P.S. [I know that it may be different (not compatible with Rizer) if the bike is attached via quick release to the Direto X, as the connection is fixed then.]

Rizer is compatible with the following Elite Home Trainers:

Justo
Direto XR
Direto XR-T
Suito
Suito-T
Tuo

These models allow the bicycle to rotate on the home trainer, therefore ensure the proper movements while using the Rizer.

Those Elite home trainers not listed above cannot be used with Rizer as they do not allow the proper bicycle rotation on the rear hub.

Using Rizer with any Elite home trainer not listed above might cause severe damages to your bicycle's frame.

The answer is no, Direto X isn't compatible with Rizer.
