ELITE VO2 EXERCYCLE ASSEMBLY MANUAL
SEAT ADJUSTMENT
Seat Adjustment
Ensuring you have the most comfortable riding position whilst minimising joint strain is
important. Adjusting your seat is simple and can normally be done without needing to get
off the bike.
Place your heel on one of the bike pedals and rotate to the furthest point on the pedal
stroke (as shown) You may need to remove the toe strap to do this. If the leg is still in the
bent position, unlock the seat mechanism and adjust to the fully extended position (Pic.1) –
Lock the seat adjustment mechanism in to place.
Moving your foot backwards, place your forefoot on to the pedal in the correct riding
position (Pic 2). This should allow for a natural bend in the knee, whilst providing a full 360
degree rotation. If you experience the feeling of reaching for the pedal or sliding down the
seat, you may need to make a minor adjustment to the position. Before commencing your
workout please reattach and adjust the toe strap correctly to secure your foot firmly on the
pedal.
Note: - If you are using the exercycle for injury rehabilitation purposes i.e. Knee
Replacements you may need to extend the seat position further than normal to allow for
any reduced joint mobility due to swelling and inflammation.
