obstacle or condition on the road, potentially resulting
in serious injury or death. If you choose to have your
brake reach adjusted, ensure the adjustment is done by
a professional bicycle mechanic or certified ElliptiGO
technician.
Adjusting the Stride Length on C-Series, 8S and 11R
Models
The crank arms on the C-series and models 8S and 11R
provide four different mounting positions for the drive
arms. Each mounting position generates a different stride
length according to the following table:
Mounting Position
One
Two
Three
Four
Your ElliptiGO comes from the factory with the stride
length set in the longest position. It is the preferred
position for most people. Unless you are shorter than 5'2"
in height or your legs have a limited range of motion, we
recommend trying the bike in the longest stride length
first to see how that feels. If you are shorter than 5'2", your
legs have a limited range of motion or the longest stride
length position feels too long for you, then we recommend
moving down one position at a time until you find the one
that feels best for you.

To adjust the stride length, follow these steps:
1.
Place the bike on the kickstand.
2.
Some bikes come equipped with a retention screw on
the inside of the crank arm. If your bike does not have
a retention screw (Photo 2a), then proceed to step 4.
If your bike does have a retention screw (Photo 2b),
then proceed to the next step.
NOTE: If your bike has a silver drive arm axle, it should
be equipped with a drive arm axle retention screw. If
you believe you are missing a drive arm retention screw,
contact service@elliptigo.com for assistance.
