CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.2 BEFORE GETTING STARTED - CONTINUED
HOW TO ADJUST THE INDOOR CYCLE
The indoor cycle can be adjusted for maximum comfort and exercise effectiveness. The instructions below describe one approach to adjusting the
indoor cycle to ensure optimal user comfort and ideal body positioning; you may choose to adjust the indoor cycle differently.
SADDLE ADJUSTMENT
Proper saddle height helps ensure maximum exercise efficiency and comfort, while reducing the risk of injury. Adjust the saddle height to make sure
it’s in proper position, one that keeps a slight bend in your knee while your legs are in the extended position.
HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT
Proper position for the handlebar is based primarily on comfort. Typically, the handlebar should be positioned slightly higher than the saddle for
beginning cyclists. Advanced cyclists could try different heights to get the arrangement most suitable for them.
A) SADDLE HORIZONTAL POSITION
Pull the adjustment lever down to slide the saddle forward or backward as desired. Push the
lever up to lock saddle position. Test the saddle slide for proper operation.
B) SADDLE HEIGHT
Lift the adjustment lever up while sliding the saddle up and down with the other hand. Push the lever down to lock saddle position.
C) HANDLEBAR HORIZONTAL POSITION
Pull the adjustment lever towards the rear of the cycle to slide the handlebars forward or
backward as desired. Push the lever forward to lock handlebar position.
D) HANDLEBAR HEIGHT
Pull the adjustment lever up while raising or lowering the handlebar with the other hand. Push the lever down to lock handlebar position.
E) PEDAL STRAPS
Place the ball of the foot into the toe cage until the ball of the foot is centered over the pedal, reach down and pull the
pedal strap up to tighten prior to use. To remove your foot from the toe cage, loosen the strap and pull out.
