This is a front wheel riser for use with an indoor bike trainer. One slot will accommodate up to a 25 mm road tire, and the other slot will accommodate up to a 2.2 in mountain bike tire (I added a model for up to 32mm and 2.75in tires after a few requests). It raises the wheel about 70 mm or 2.75 inches (because that's the thickness of the book my road bike tire was sitting on, but it's also perfect for my Wahoo Kickr Core).

I printed the pictured riser with a .8 mm nozzle at .32 resolution. Without supports, the legs might tip during the print process.

As you can see in the pictures, I had some flow problems early on because I forgot to adjust for winter weather.

I left the tree supports on for a couple years but finally took them off. I like the idea of printing this on a raft so the legs don't leave indentations on my indoor exercise mat.
