HOW TO ADJUST THE GEOMETRY OF THE
STUDIO CYCLE
The studio cycle can be adjusted to match the geom-
etry of your road bike to promote correct form and to
ensure proper training of the muscles.
Make adjust-
ments in small increments, and then pedal the
studio cycle to test the adjustments.
How to Adjust the Angle of the Saddle
You can adjust the angle of the saddle to the posi-
tion that is most comfortable. You can also adjust the
saddle forward or backward for increased comfort or to
adjust the distance to the handlebar.
To adjust the sad-
dle,
first loosen the
saddle screw (B) in
the carriage a few
turns. Next, tilt the
saddle upward or
downward or slide
the saddle forward
or backward to the
desired position.
Then, retighten the saddle screw.
Note: You can remove the saddle and attach your
own saddle to the studio cycle if desired.
How to Adjust the Saddle Carriage
To adjust the posi-
tion of the carriage,
loosen the carriage
knob (C), move the
carriage forward
or backward to the
desired position,
and then firmly
tighten the carriage
knob.
How to Adjust the Saddle Post
For effective training, the saddle should be at the
proper height. As you pedal, there should be a slight
bend in your knees when the pedals are in the lowest
position.
To adjust the saddle
post, loosen the
post knob (D),
move the saddle
post upward or
downward, and
then firmly tighten
the post knob.
IMPORTANT: Do
not raise the sad-
dle post beyond
the “MAX” mark on the saddle post.
How to Adjust the Handlebar Post
To adjust the han-
dlebar post, loosen
the post knob (E),
move the handle-
bar post upward
or downward, and
then firmly tighten
the post knob.
IMPORTANT:
Do not raise the
handlebar post
beyond the “MAX” mark on the handlebar post.
How to Adjust the Position of the Console
The console (F) can
be adjusted upward,
downward, or to
the side. To adjust
the position of the
console, simply hold
the sides of the con-
sole and press it to
the desired position.
You can pivot the
console all of the
way to the side so
that you can view it
while standing next to the studio cycle to perform hand
weight exercises or other floor exercises.
If the console feels too loose or does not stay in place
when it is moved up or down or from side to side, see
HOW TO ADJUST THE CONSOLE PIVOT AND TILT
