The supplied Skyliner front wheel support levels your front wheel compared to your rear wheel.

5 / 5
Very good. Not just for the price, it is very good.
Once set up (very easy to do) and updated, it was a simple case of connecting to my iPad via Ant+. Do it this way and it will control the turbo's resistance to help you achieve the target wattage. I also use it with my Garmin pedals providing the power signal with the turbo running in ERG mode. With this set up I can use Trainerroad or Swift for my winter indoor sessions.
