Instructions
Your Air Bike is easy to use. There are no resistance knobs to adjust as the resistance comes from the isokenetic resistance created
by the movement of air with the fan-shaped flywheel. Control over the resistance is obtained by simply varying the pace of pedaling
and of the push / pull on the swing arms. Typically, exercising at a slower pace generates a lower resistance from the flywheel,
enabling a cardiovascular endurance workout that can be sustained for extended periods of time. Higher pace exercise involving faster
pedaling and more forceful pushing / pulling on the movement arms creates a greater resistance level that will deliver a greater muscle
endurance or anaerobic workout. Anaerobic exercise and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) are much more strenuous forms of
exercise that should only be undertaken by users that have established a baseline fitness level capable of adapting to this form of
exercise. Users are also encouraged to discuss their health program or fitness regimen with their healthcare professional.
Additionally, the bike can be operated with only the use of the swing arms for an upper-body-only workout. The front foot pegs located
on either side of the flywheel are to be used when exercising only with the swing arms. Position feet securely on these platforms while
pushing / pulling on the swing arms.
NOTE:
that the pedals will continue to rotate when the bike is used with the swing arms only. Be certain to maintain feet on the front
foot platforms when exercising with the swing arms only so that feet stay clear of the rotating pedals.
Seat Adjustments
Proper bike setup gives you a more comfortable ride and reduces your risk of injury.
To adjust the seat height:
Dismount the bike. Loosen and pull out on the seat height pop-pin to release it from its
current preset location, while holding the seat with one hand. Raise or lower the seat to
the desired height, then gently release the pop-pin. Raise or lower the seat slightly, if
necessary, until the pop-pin engages a preset hole.
SEAT HEIGHT
At the proper height, there should be a slight bend in your knee when you’re at the bottom
of a pedal stroke. (Figure 1)
FORE/AFT POSITION
Once the proper height has been achieved, adjust the seat forward or back so that
when the feet are in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions, the forward knee is directly
over the pedal axle. Recheck the seat height again after making the fore/aft
adjustment, as moving the seat forward and backward can have the same effect as
moving it higher or lower. (Figure 2)
