Maintenance
This is general information for daily, weekly, and monthly maintenance to be performed on
your bike.
1. Daily Maintenance
After each exercise session, wipe down all the equipment: seat, frame, and handlebars.
Pay special attention to the seat post, handlebar post, and belt guard. Sweat is very
corrosive and may cause problems that require parts replacement later.
1.Get on the bike and engage the drive train.
2.Pay attention to any vibrations felt through the pedals. If you feel any vibrations, you
may need to tighten the pedals, bottom bracket, or adjust the drive belt tension.
3.Use a wrench to tighten the pedals until they are secure.
2.
Weekly Maintenance
1.Inspect moving parts and tighten the hardware.
2.Inspect pull pin frame fittings to make sure the fittings are secure. Loose frame fittings
may strip out threads over time and cause extensive damage.
3.Clean and lubricate pop pin assemblies. Pull on the pin and spray a small amount of
lubricant onto the shaft.
4.Tighten the seat hardware to make sure the seat is level and centered.
5.Brush and treat the brake pads. Remove any foreign material that may have collected
on the pads. Spray the pads with silicone lubricant. This helps to reduce noise from
friction between the pads and the flywheel.
6.Visually inspect the bottom bracket, toe clips and toe straps. If any of them are loose or
disconnected, attach and tighten.

Monthly Maintenance
1.Check if all hardware is secure, such as: water bottle holder, flywheel nuts, belt guard
bolts, brake caliper lock nuts, and brake caliper tension rod nuts.
2.Inspect the brake tension rod for signs of wear such as missing threads. Clean and
lubricate the brake tension rod.
3.Clean and lubricate the seat post, handlebar post and seat slider. Remove any built up
of foreign material.
