Operating Instructions

Powering On and Self-Generation

The ThinkRider XX PRO features a self-generating power system. Simply begin pedaling your bicycle, and the trainer will generate its own power for operation and connectivity. No external power adapter is required for basic functionality, offering flexibility in placement.

Connectivity (Bluetooth & ANT+)

The XX PRO supports both Bluetooth and ANT+ wireless communication protocols, allowing connection to various cycling applications and devices.
