 PROGRAM SAFETY

» 

Consult your physician before beginning this or any other exercise 
routine. Not all exercise programs are suitable for everyone. 
Discontinue any exercise that causes you discomfort and consult a 
medical expert. 

» 

Ensure that adjustment knobs 

(seat height, seat fore-and-aft, and handlebar 

height) 

are properly secured and do not interfere with range of motion 

during exercise. 

» 

Children under the age of 16 should not ride the Spinner®  
Ascent bike. 

» 

Do not insert any object, hands or feet into any openings, or expose 
hands, arms or feet to the drive mechanism or any other potentially 
moving parts of the bike. 

» 

The body weight for individuals riding the Spinner Ascent bike should 
not exceed 158 kg (350 lb.). 

» 

Spinner bikes have a weighted flywheel and a fixed gear. This means 
that in order to stop, you must gradually slow your pedal strokes rather 
than stopping abruptly. If you do need to stop immediately, push down 
on the RED resistance knob. 

» 

After exercising, turn the resistance knob to increase resistance so 
the pedals will not rotate freely and potentially injure someone. 

» 

If at any time you feel dizzy or have difficulty breathing, gradually stop 
pedaling and carefully dismount the bike. 

» 

Listen to your body, ride at your own pace and set your bike’s 
resistance at the level that feels right for you.
