Care and Maintenance

Care

•  Make sure the pedals are as tight as you can possibly make them. This is especially important 

if you pedal backwards. If the pedals come loose, you should apply 

Blue Loctite®

 to the pedal 

threads. See the “Troubleshooting” section for details.

•  Do not stand on the pedals. The DeskCycle was not designed to be used while standing.

Maintenance

The DeskCycle requires no maintenance. 

Do Not Lubricate

The DeskCycle contains sealed bearings for years of maintenance-free use. No lubrication is needed. 

Some lubricants contain chemicals that can actually harm the bearings.
