Equipment setting

Operating the emergency brake:
Push the emergency brake (34) for safety reasons, whenever it is required to get off the equipment
and/or to stop the flywheel of the equipment.
Adjustment
When you take a moment to adjust your indoor
34
cycle correctly to your body, you increase the
comfort and the safety of your training. The indoor
cycle offers diverse adjusting possibilities for saddle
and handlebar. Use these adjusting possibilities for
an optimal sitting comfort and a maximum training
efficiency. A wrong position while training can
cause avoidable pain and might increase the risk of
injury.
Adjusting the handlebar position
Handlebar height
• The handlebar height can be individually adjusted.
• Start with the adjusting of the connecting rod
(handlebar) to the seat height. A higher adjustment
of the connecting rod (handlebar) provides a more upright sitting; a lower adjustment of the
connecting rod (handlebar) provides a posture bend forward.
• Pull the adjusting lever up to adjust the height of the handlebar and push the bar upwards or
downwards as required. Push the adjusting lever down to the locked position to safe the connecting
rod (handlebar) again.
• Do not exceed the adjustments beyond the stop markings.
Horizontal adjustment
• Release the upper adjusting lever on the connecting rod (handlebar) and push the handlebar
forward or backwards as required.
• The horizontal adjustment should be done so that you can comfortably hold the handlebar with a
slight bending of the elbow.
• Do not exceed the adjustments beyond the stop markings.
Hand position
• In order to prevent one-sided stress of muscles, ligaments, and joints, the hand position should be
changed throughout longer training sessions. The handlebar offers different possibilities to hold.
