BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Congratulations for selecting the revolutionary PRO-
FORM

¨

REBEL Recumbent Bike and Elliptical

Crosstrainer. The REBEL is an incredibly smooth
exerciser that moves your feet in a natural elliptical
path, minimizing the impact on your knees and ankles.
The unique REBEL can easily be converted from an
elliptical crosstrainer to a recumbent bike, giving you
two machines in one. Welcome to a whole new world
of natural, elliptical-motion exercise from PROFORM. 

For your benefit, read this manual carefully before
you use the REBEL.
