3.2 Installing the Cassette (if not pre-installed)

If your T300 did not come with a cassette pre-installed, you will need to install one compatible with your bicycle's drivetrain. Use a cassette lockring tool and a chain whip to secure the cassette onto the freehub body. Ensure it is tightened to the manufacturer's specifications.

  1. Remove the rear wheel from your bicycle.
  2. Carefully align your bicycle's rear dropouts with the trainer's freehub and axle.
  3. For quick release, insert the provided quick release skewer through the trainer's axle and secure it firmly.
  4. For thru-axle, use the provided thru-axle adapter and your bicycle's thru-axle to secure the bike to the trainer.
  5. Ensure the bicycle is securely mounted and stable before use.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Connecting to Applications

The Magene T300 supports ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart connectivity, allowing it to pair with a wide range of cycling applications on various devices (iOS, Android, MacOS, Windows).

  • Bluetooth Smart: Enable Bluetooth on your device (smartphone, tablet, computer). Open your preferred cycling application (e.g., Zwift, TrainerRoad, Onelap) and navigate to the sensor pairing menu. The T300 should appear as a discoverable device. Select it to connect.
  • ANT+: For ANT+ connectivity, plug the provided ANT+ USB dongle into your computer. Open your cycling application and search for ANT+ devices. The T300 will be detected as a power meter, speed sensor, and cadence sensor.

Ensure only one application is actively connected to the trainer via Bluetooth at a time to avoid interference. ANT+ allows multiple connections simultaneously.

4.2 Calibration

For optimal accuracy, it is recommended to perform a spin-down calibration within your cycling application periodically, especially after initial setup or if the trainer has been moved. Follow the on-screen instructions within your chosen application to complete the calibration process.

4.3 Riding Experience

Once connected, the T300 will automatically adjust resistance based on the virtual terrain or structured workout selected in your application. Experience realistic gradient simulations up to 22% and a maximum power output of 2600W for challenging intervals and sprints.
