According to the manual "yes", but I've never tried with mine. I would suggest it would be quite noisy with knobbly MTB tyres (it's very quiet with a normal road bike tyre). However, I know Continental sell a MTB specific 26" home trainer tyre which would be well worth getting - I have the road bike version and it's certainly quieter than a normal tyre and far more hard wearing.

The one i bought did not have a riser block, I just used a couple of old reference books. Why pay for a piece of plastic when you can improvise?

no. I recommend you purchase the separate CycleOps riser block. You do get a wheel skewer so you can be sure the skewer sits nicely in the trainer mounts.

Most turbo trainers should come with thier quick release axle that would replace your current non quick release axle. It takes only a few seconds to swap them around

Question
Classic Fluid 2 Turbo Trainer
I have had this trainer for a couple of years now and it is a good trainer however I am getting a very frustrating squeaking/creaking noise about 20mins into the session. This appears to be coming from where the skewer nut attaches to the trainer socket. I suspect it is something to do with the friction and heat build up and the rub is causing the noise. I've tried tightening up the skewer and even putting tape around the nut which stopped the noise until the friction burned the tape away. It isnt the bike as I don't have this problem on the road so it must be something to do with how the bike is connected to the trainer. Its getting so annoying I'm considering changing for another trainer. Any ideas?

Same happened to me - Wish I had seen your question earlier. Seems there is an inherant fault inside the mechanism. Get it back to the store and your money back

If you aren't using the skewer supplied with the trainer I would recommend doing so as this is a proven design for working with the trainer without noise. If you are using the supplied skewer you should check to make sure that the frame is straight as it could be that the trainer is not gripping the bike evenly on both sides, causing a wobble. If the trainer is gripping securely and the bike can't move you shouldn't have any issues with friction.

Is there a Weight limit for CycleOps Fluid 2?
Hi, Is there a user weight limit on the Fluid 2? I am 6 foot 3 and 105 Kg. I realise I won't be able to leap of the saddle and power myself through the garage door but for steady seated training will it be ok?

I'm a similar weight and the unit copes fine - agreed I am nervous about getting out of the saddle and giving it loads, but for seated training at differing intensities and cadences it is solid as a rock.

Yes you can use this trainer with Cyclocross bikes. You may suffer some vibration if your tyres do not have a smooth central tread though so you may need to fit slick tyres.

Should work with any bike! Although mountain bike tyres make a lot of noise - the smoother the tyre type the better.
