if the yoke is installed under the seat, is there some sort of quick release from the bike? like a zipper or snaps or do I have to remove the seat .

I have both straps under the seat and the seat must be removed to take off the bags. This keeps the bags from walking away and the rear seat is still usable. Great bags.

Yes, it is fairly easy to get your bike off the trainer and go out, maybe a 3-5 minute affair. The rear hub gets squeezed in place and held on the trainer so once that's loosened the bike can drop down. From there, remove the clamp for the adjustable tensioner from your handle bars (or where ever you chose to attach it) and you're good to go!

Similar to George's answer, but my "knob" in the yoke is a screw out and in rather tha being spring loaded. Wayne

There is an adjustment knob on the underside which allows you to change how close the back is to the seat. Unscrew the knob and the back comes off.

I'm in the same boat. Their listing doesn't indicate that it cannot be attached to a quick release wheel. My brother was trying to install it and what he found was that you would have to take the bike to a bike shop and have it modified for a cost of $50. or more. The quick release problem isn't mentioned until the very last sentence in the installation instructions. Good luck!!

Hi, Yes this is a quick release. The frame holding the Trolley Tote can be adjusted so it won't hit your butt. However, your seat height/angle may affect this adjustment. Enjoy...

I purchased for a gift and don't have it handy but I believe that the crotch piece is molded to the seat and cannnot be removed.

Mr. A,Unfortunately i do not have any experience with anything other than quick release on this machine (and on any of my bikes..U lock through rear wheel/frame).It does come with a quick release skewer which should take a minute or two to install.Sorry i can't be more help.

I also have a quick release seat. Yes you can replace it with this one. I did.

It's a taper fit. You can pop it off with a ball joint tool (fork) or a wedge of some sort. I even used a large screwdriver and a mallet... Then just install a new one with a sharp strike to set the taper.

Hello,The bike I am using does not have quick release and I did not have to worry about this issue, but I believe the trainer comes with extra plastic adapters to use with your stock skewer. Sorry I can not be more direct, but I believe the description states the mounting system will take either quick release or bolt on rear wheels.

The bike skewer on the ForkLift works just like the skewer on your quick release wheel - use the thumb screw to get it close then 'cam' down the lever - be careful not to over tighten!

If you are replacing the seat with an identical model they pop on or off with the push if a button. It looks like you could probably replace the seat with a different model or brand, but you would need to use an Allen wrench to take the old one off.

Its not unusual for a bike with a quick release tire to not fit in the trainers. Mine didn't either, but my sons bike did. It's an easy fix though. The skewer ( the nut and rod that hold the tire onto the bike), needs to be replaced for one that fits both your bike and the trainer. When I first heard I had to do that, I was really disappointed, thinking it was going to be a harder job then I could handle. But if you youtube "how to change a rear skewer", you'll find it its a really simple job. I ordered a new skewer from Amazon. The one I ordered is called CycleOps Trainer Skewer. Although I have read that others were able to go to a bike store to buy one. It took me about a minute to switch the skewers.

It doesn't have a 'quick release', but the attaching mechanism has to have a key type wrench to mount it. I feel itd be hard to steel off your bike. hope this helps.

There is a pull nob that screws in for extra security or just pull adjust and release. Located right below the seat
