Bike Setup
Proper bike setup gives you a more comfortable ride and reduces your risk of injury.
SEAT HEIGHT
At the proper height, there
should be a slight bend in
your knee when you’re at
the bottom of a pedal
stroke.
FORE/AFT POSITION
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
forward knee is directly over the pedal axle. Recheck the seat height
again after making the fore/aft adjustment, as moving the seat forward
and backward can have the same effect as moving it higher or lower.
HANDLEBAR HEIGHT
Position the handlebar at the same height as your seat, or higher if you feel any discomfort in your back.
FOOT POSITION
Place the balls of your feet securely in the toe cages, with the ball of the foot (or the widest part of your shoe) over the center of the pedals.
As you pedal, concentrate on keeping feet flat, which enables a more powerful pedal stroke. The front of the shoe may not completely fill
the toe cage.
RESISTANCE CONTROL
Pedaling resistance is controlled by the Push Brake System knob located below the handlebar. Resistance adjustments can be made
while riding to vary the intensity of your workout. To increase resistance, turn the Push Brake System knob clockwise (+); to decrease
resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise (-).
