Please note:
The spin bikes shown in the ‘setting up your spin bike’ section are for demonstration purposes only and your
spin bike my vary in aesthetics and features.
Holding this position, have your helper place
the end of the plumb line (line of string with
nut/washer) on the front of your leg, at a point
just below the bony protrusion that’s beneath
the kneecap.
The plumb line’s weight should hang over your
shoe. Check again to ensure that the crank-arm
and pedal are level. By looking at the plumb
line the knee should be in alignment with the
centre spindle or axle of the pedal. Adjust the
saddle to the correct position then tighten the
locking pin.
Handle bar adjustment
The positioning of the handlebars can be
dependent on the bike design and adjustability
available.
To minimise back strain, adjust the height
to a level that is comfortable for you. We
recommend the handlebars be positioned at
the same height level as the bike seat as a good
starting point.
