This device also serves for stationary testing a bicycle for its running and/or braking efficiency. The length and height of the above-mentioned strip of plate and bicycle supporting frame respectively and further the distance between the pair of rollers may be changed predeterminedly so as to adjust to the length and height of the bicycle and diametrical size of its rear wheel, and further a load may be imposed on the bicycle pedaling by applying any suitable friction to the rotation of said rollers so as to add to the physical training effect.
