M3i INDOOR GROUP CYCLE
OPERATION
1. Adjust the seat to the correct height position.
2. Sit on the seat of the cycle.
3. Place hands on the handlebars and adjust the
handlebars forward or backward.
NOTE: Arms should be a comfortable distance from the
handlebars with the elbows slightly bent.
4. Place feet on the pedals in the three-o’clock and nine-
o’clock position.
NOTE: The front of the knee cap should be aligned with the
middle of the pedal at the point where the crank
arm meets the pedal.
5. Bend elbows slightly and place shoulders
at a 90˚ position.
6. Look down:
– If toes are visible move/shift the seat back.
– If the entire foot is visible move/shift the seat
forward.
NOTE: Adjust and re-check the knee cap alignment. The
knees should not extend beyond the elbows
when pedaling.
Always secure the pedal clip strap:
1. Place the widest part of foot over the pedal.
2. Locate the strap and pull up on it to tighten. It should be
snug but not too tight to cause discomfort.
NOTE: Pedaling at high speeds or pedaling while standing
are considered advanced techniques, and should only be
performed by advanced users.
WARNING: The indoor cycle is NOT designed with a freewheel, but a fixed gear system. When
the flywheel is in motion, the pedals will also be in motion. Never remove your feet from the
pedals while in motion as serious user injury may occur.
