KICKR MOVE SETUP
Prior to setting up your KICKR MOVE, ensure the lock lever is securely locked to avoid risk of injury.
Place your KICKR MOVE on a stable, level surface and open the legs by pressing down on the blue leg-lock tabs and pivoting the legs outward until they snap into place. Ensure the leg-lock tabs have popped back up and secured the legs in an open position.
Setup Diagrams:
- Diagram 1 shows a hand pressing down on blue leg-lock tabs on the KICKR MOVE. Diagram 2 illustrates the trainer's legs pivoting outwards until they snap into an open position. A warning symbol ⚠️ highlights a pinch point hazard, advising to keep hands away from moving parts, never reach into the KICKR MOVE, and always lock it when not in use.
- Diagram 3 shows the AC power adapter connecting the trainer to a wall outlet. Diagram 4 illustrates adjusting the trainer's leveling feet (labeled 'a') by twisting them, followed by locking them with blue locknuts (labeled 'b') against the leg frame. A warning symbol ⚠️ reminds users to check trainer stability before each ride and re-adjust leveling feet if necessary.
- Diagram 5 shows a hand adjusting a height adjustment knob on the center leg of the trainer to match the bicycle's wheel size. If unsure of wheel size, check the tire sidewall or consult a local bike shop.
ADAPTERS AND ATTACHING YOUR BICYCLE
FOR 130MM OR 135MM QUICK RELEASE
Adapters Needed: A and B. The KICKR MOVE comes pre-configured for 130mm quick release spacing. For 135mm spacing, remove the quick release skewer, reverse Adapter B, and reinstall the skewer.
FOR 142MM OR 148MM THRU AXLE
Adapters Needed: C and D or E. To be used with the 12mm thru axle supplied with the bicycle.
Attaching Your Bicycle:
Prior to attaching your bicycle, ensure the lock lever is securely locked to avoid risk of injury.
Shift your bicycle chain into the smallest sprocket in the front and rear, then remove your rear wheel. Install your bicycle on the KICKR MOVE by aligning the chain with the smallest sprocket on the KICKR MOVE and pressing down to fully seat the dropouts on the KICKR MOVE's axle.
- For bicycles with quick release: Secure your bicycle by tightening the quick release acorn nut and clamping the quick release lever shut. The lever is “open” when it curves away from the frame; it is “closed” when it curves towards the frame. The handle of the quick release skewer is always on the non-drive side. Only use the provided quick release skewer.
- For bicycles with thru axle: Secure your bicycle by reinstalling your bicycle's thru axle and tightening to manufacturer specifications.
Warning: Failure to properly tighten the quick release skewer or thru axle may result in property damage, including damage to the attached bicycle, or personal injury. If unsure of the proper tension, consult your local bike shop or Wahoo Fitness for assistance. Do NOT ride the KICKR MOVE until the quick release skewer or thru axle is properly tightened.
PRO TIP: Lift the front wheel up while pressing down on the saddle to ensure the bicycle is fully seated on the trainer.
AXIS FEET ADJUSTMENT
KICKR MOVE's integrated AXIS feet allow cyclists to customize ride feel to match their unique riding style, enhance feedback, and offer a more realistic training experience.
Adjustment Steps:
- Unthread "outrigger" feet.
- Remove top cap (part between blue locknut and base of the foot).
- Install desired top cap.
Top Cap Selection by Weight:
- 0-140 lbs (0 – 63 kg): Use smallest diameter cap

- 181 lbs + (81kg +): Use largest diameter cap
Warning: Failure to select the appropriate top cap for your weight may result in property damage or personal injury. Do NOT ride the KICKR MOVE until the appropriate top cap is installed.
