ADJUSTMENT
SEAT ADJUSTMENT
Proper seat height helps ensure maximum exercise efficiency and comfort, while
reducing the risk of injury. Adjust the seat height to make sure of this proper position:
To adjust the seat height:
Dismount the bike and release the quick release lever for the seat height adjustment.
Once loosened, raise or lower the seat post as necessary. When the seat is in the desired
position, re-apply the quick release lever to lock the position. Note the final position mark
on the seat post for future use.
To adjust the seat horizontal position:
Dismount the bike and release the quick release lever under the seat and slide the seat
forward or backward as desired. Re-apply the quick release lever to lock. Note the final
position mark on the seat slider fore for future use.
HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT
Proper position for the handlebar is based primarily on comfort. The Class Cycle allows for
fore and aft adjustment of the handlebar. Typically, the handlebar should be positioned
slightly higher than the seat for beginning cyclists. Advanced cyclists could try different
heights to get the arrangement most suitable for you.
To adjust the handlebar height:
Release the quick release lever for the handlebar height adjustment. Raise or lower the
handlebar to the desired height, and then re-apply the quick release lever to lock. Note
the final position mark on the handlebar stem for future use.
To adjust the handlebar horizontal position:
Loosen the quick release for the handlebar fore-and-aft tension handle. Move the
handlebar forward or back to the desired position, and then re-apply the quick release
lever to lock. Note the final position mark on the handlebar slider for future use.
PEDAL STRAP ADJUSTMENT
Place each foot ankle on the pedal and in the toe clip that the foot ankle is centered over
the pedal spindle (centre of the pedal). Rotate one foot to arms reach and pull up on the
toe clip strap. Repeat for the other foot. Keep your knees over your feet as you pedal. To
remove your foot from the toe clip, loosen the strap and pull out.
• The knee joint is slightly flexed when the extended leg is at the bottom of the pedal
stroke.
