HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT
Begin with the top of the handlebars at the same height
as the top of the saddle (see the drawing below). If
your knees touch the handlebars or if you experience
back discomfort while pedaling for extended periods of
time, you can adjust the height of the handlebars.
Dismount the indoor studio cycle. Next, turn the front
adjustment knob counterclockwise one half of a turn,
pull the adjustment knob, slide the handlebar post up
or down, and then release the adjustment knob. Move
the handlebar post up or down slightly to ensure that
the knob is engaged in one of the adjustment holes in
the handlebar post. Then, retighten the knob.
Next, adjust the horizontal position of the handlebars. If
the handlebars are too close to the saddle, your breath-
ing may feel restricted; if the handlebars are too far
from the saddle, you may experience back discomfort.
To adjust the horizontal position of the handlebars, dis-
mount the indoor studio cycle. Next, loosen the front
adjustment handle, slide the handlebars forward or
backward, and then retighten the handle.
The handlebars offer a wide variety of hand positions.
By changing your hand position, you can change the
angle of your back, neck, and arms. To minimize the
stress on your muscles during workouts, change your
hand position frequently.
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
You can regulate
the resistance of
the braking sys-
tem in fine incre-
ments. To in-
crease the resis-
tance, turn the re-
sistance knob
clockwise. To de-
crease the resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT: When pedaling the indoor studio
cycle, never pedal backward. Pedaling backward
can loosen the pedals and cause them to detach.
To stop the flywheel, pull the emergency brake handle
upward. The flywheel should quickly come to a com-
plete stop.
HOW TO MOVE THE INDOOR STUDIO CYCLE
Due to the weight of the indoor studio cycle, it is
recommended that two persons move it. Have a
second person lift the back of the indoor studio cycle.
Firmly hold the handlebars and tip the indoor studio
cycle forward until it rolls on the wheels. Carefully
move the indoor studio cycle to the desired location
and then lower it. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of in-
jury, use extreme caution while moving the indoor
studio cycle. Do not attempt to move it over un-
even surfaces.
If the indoor studio cycle rocks on your floor, turn the
leveling feet located beneath the front or rear stabilizer
until the rocking motion is eliminated.
WARNING:
The indoor studio
cycle does not have a freewheel; the pedals
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
Reduce pedaling speed in a controlled way.
