THE FLYWHEEL MOMENTUM OF THE BIKE WILL KEEP THE PEDALS TURNING EVEN 
AFTER THE USER STOPS PEDALING OR IN THE EVENT THE USER’S FEET SLIP OFF 
THE PEDALS. DO NOT DISMOUNT THE BIKE OR ATTEMPT TO REMOVE YOUR FEET 
FROM THE PEDALS UNTIL BOTH THE PEDALS AND THE FLYWHEEL HAVE STOPPED 
COMPLETELY. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY LEAD TO LOSS OF CONTROL AND SERIOUS 
PERSONAL INJURY.

STEP 4:

 INSTALL THE HANDLEBARS

Unscrew, pull out and hold the handlebar
pop-pin. Slide the handlebar post all the
way into the handlebar tube. Release the
handlebar pop-pin. Adjust the handlebars to
make sure pop-pin is engaged. Tighten the
handlebar pop-pin securely.

STEP 5: 

INSTALL THE PEDALS

Turn the resistance knob all the way to 
the right until crank arms are immobilized. 
Remove pedal packaging. 

note:

 Pedals are always tightened by turning the 

spindle toward the front of the bike. Be sure to 
install the pedals on the correct side of the bike.

The pedal spindles are marked “L” (LEFT) and 
“R” (RIGHT) to aid in assembly. Left and right are 
referenced from a seated position on the bike.  

Install the LEFT PEDAL on the LEFT CRANK. 
Use the multi-wrench supplied and turn 

counterclockwise

 to tighten. Install the 

RIGHT PEDAL on the RIGHT CRANK. Use the 
multi-wrench supplied and turn 

clockwise

 to 

tighten. 

Be sure both pedals are tightened securely.  

STEP 6: 

LEVEL THE BIKE

Move the bike to the location where it will be 
used. Your Spinner® Ascent requires 
1.2 m x 1.8 m (4 x 6 ft.) of floor space for proper 
operation. Rock the bike gently to check for 
wobble. If needed, use the leveling adjusters 
under the front and rear stabilizer bars to 
steady the bike.
