CREATE A CUSTOM CYCLING WORKOUT
Create a custom aerobic workout with your desired speed, intensity, and duration:
1. Adjust the pedal tension (see below) to your desired resistance level.
2. Place your feet flat on the pedals.
3. Begin pedaling at your desired speed. You can check your speed on the monitor.
Speed is displayed in RPMs (rotations/strides per minute).
4. Keep an eye on the monitor to check your workout duration.
ADJUSTING THE PEDAL RESISTANCE/TENSION
The FlexCycle has 8 levels of resistance (1-8). Level 1 is the lowest resistance
level and provides the easiest pedaling. Level 8 is the highest resistance level and
provides the most intense pedaling workout.
1. Turn the Tension Control Knob to the right or left to adjust the resistance level.
Align the arrow on the knob to the tension level you would like to select.
2. Turn the knob to the right to increase the resistance level. Turn the knob to the
left to decrease the resistance level.
TETHERING THE BIKE TO A CHAIR WHEN USING ON SLIPPERY FLOORS
The FlexCycle comes with a long strap which can be used to tether the bike to a
chair. Most users will NOT need to tether the bike; pedaling with downward force will
prevent it from slipping on carpet and most other surfaces. To tether the bike when
using it on a slippery surface:
1. Position the bike in front of a chair.
2. Sit in the chair and begin pedaling. Your feet
should easily reach the pedals while sitting
in the chair. Your knees should be slightly
bent when the pedals are furthest from you.
3. Route the tether strap around the bike
and chair as shown in the image. Notice
the strap goes over the front stabilizer
and under the bike frame.
4. Pull the strap taut and press the ends of
the velcro together to make a tight loop.
5. Pedal the bike to make sure the distance is
correct. Adjust if necessary.
6. Use the strap’s buckle to quickly tether and untether the bike.
