and quality of resistance. If cavitations are present, the damper should be replaced.
See replacing the damper in Parts – removal and replacement section.
b.
Sticking - At maximum setting, the handlebars should move from fully left to fully
right consistently without any sticking action. Over time, the moving parts can wear
and lead to resistance tolerances being affected. If the movement in the handlebars
experiences sticking, the damper should be replaced. See replacing the damper in
Parts – removal and replacement section.

Handlebar System ‘Return to Zero’ Performance
Examine the action of the ‘Return to Zero’ springs on the handlebar system by setting the
resistance at maximum. Move the bars to the extreme right and release and then extreme left
and release. At this setting the mechanism should return close to centre under its own action.
If it is found that the handlebars remain unreasonably fixed to one side or the other, the
springs will need to be replaced. See replacing the ‘Return to Zero’ springs in Parts – removal
and replacement section.

Looseness in the X-Bars
™
Handlebar Mechanism
a.
Mechanism Hardware - Examine the handlebar system assembly for general
mechanism looseness. Check all 4 main pivot bolts, the 2 large bolts in the centre of
the assembly, and the main damper pin through the end of the damper. If any
looseness is present, tighten before reassembly. In the event that any of these bolts
have been found to be loose, they should be checked again at the next weekly
maintenance routine and if they have re-loosened, please contact your authorised
dealer. (Details for your closest dealer found at

Main Pivot Bolts Centre Bolts
Centre Slider Damper Slider
b.
Slider wear – There are three sliders in the mechanism, 1 in the centre swinger and
the other 2 running in the damper rails. If the clearance between these sliders and the
rails in which they run exceeds 1.5mm, they should be replaced.
5.
Height Adjustment
Dryness or prolonged use may cause the height and reach adjustments for the bars and seat
to become tight. If this is the case, the sliding assembly should be removed from the frame
and have a smear of light duty grease applied along the sliding surface before reassembly.
Similarly, apply some light grease to the clamping assembly to ensure it does not seize up.
Clean off excessive grease before reassembly.
