ARE THE SOUNDS MY UPRIGHT BIKE MAKES NORMAL?
Our Upright Bike are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and
friction free magnetic resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to
minimize noise. However, because the resistance system itself is so quiet, you will
occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder technologies,
there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our
Upright Bike. These mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are nor-
mal and are caused by the transfer of significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spin-
ning flywheel. All bearings, belts and other rotating parts will generate some noise
which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is also normal for these sounds
to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of
the parts.
WHY IS THE UPRIGHT BIKE I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT
THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is general-
ly more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on
a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat
will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product is placed close to
a wall, there will be more reflected noise.
HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?
The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance
free hours. Belts are now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as
motorcycle drives.
CAN I MOVE THE UPRIGHT BIKE EASIER ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?
Your Horizon Fitness Upright Bike has a pair of transport wheels built into the front
foot. It is easy to move your Upright Bike by rolling it on the front transport wheels.
It is important that you place your Horizon Fitness Upright Bike in a comfortable and
inviting room. Your Upright Bike is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people
will place their Upright Bike facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid
putting your Upright Bike in a unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable daily
activity for you, the Upright Bike should be in an attractive setting.
