CHAPTER 3: gEnERAl UsE

The CycleOps Indoor Cycle is easy to use. Simply sit on the cycle, tighten the pedal 
straps and begin cycling. The CycleOps indoor cycle allows the user full control over 
resistance by simply adjusting the resistance knob. Typically, lower resistance levels 
enable you to pedal at a faster pace, placing increased demand on the cardiovascu-
lar system. Higher resistance levels will typically deliver a greater muscle/endurance 
workout at lower RPMs. RPM parameters in the program range from 60-110 RPM.

Additionally, the indoor cycle offers seat and handlebar adjustments, allowing the 
CycleOps indoor cycle to be configured to each user’s comfort zone.

This section provides the instructions for making seat adjustments,  
handlebar adjustments, pedal strap adjustments, and for controlling resistance. 

Seat Adjustments

Proper seat height helps ensure maximum exercise efficiency and comfort, while  
reducing the risk of injury. Adjust the seat height so that the knee joint is slightly 
flexed when the extended leg is at the bottom of the pedal stroke. Once the proper  
height has been achieved, adjust the seat forward or back so that when the feet are  
in the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions, the knees are directly over the pedal spindle.

To adjust the seat height:

Dismount the cycle. Turn the seat height pop-pin counterclockwise and pull out on 
the pin to release it from its current preset location. Raise or lower the seat to the 
desired height, then gently release the pop-pin. Raise or lower the seat slightly, if nec-
essary, until the pop-pin engages a preset hole. Turn the pop-pin clockwise to secure.

To adjust the seat horizontal position:

Dismount the indoor cycle. Loosen the seat fore-and-aft tension handle by turning 
the handle counterclockwise. Move the seat forward or back to the desired position, 
then tighten the tension handle by turning clockwise. Be sure to tighten the handle 
firmly.

Handlebar Adjustments

Proper position for the handlebar is based primarily on comfort. Typically, the handle-
bar should be positioned even with or slightly higher than the seat. 

Dismount the indoor cycle  Turn L-handle counterclockwise to release it from its cur-
rent preset location. Raise or lower the handlebar to the desired height, then tighten 
L-handle. Turn the L-handle clockwise to secure.

To adjust the handlebar horizontal position:

Dismount the indoor cycle. Loosen the handlebar fore-and-aft tension handle by turn-
ing the handle counterclockwise. Move the handlebar forward or back to the desired 
position, then tighten the tension handle by turning clockwise. Be sure to tighten 
the handle firmly. As a general guideline, handlebar fore-and-aft can be determined 
by placing one’s elbow on the nose of the saddle and extending the fingers straight. 
Adjust handlebar fore-and-aft until the fingertips touch the handlebar near the stem 
and tighten.
