Setting
Please take a moment to set the indoor cycle and adjust it to your body. You increase
the comfort and the safety of your training. The indoor cycle offers diverse saddle
and handlebar adjusting possibilities. Use these adjusting possibilities for an optimal
sitting comfort and a maximum training efficiency. A false posture during the training
might cause avoidable pains and might increase the risk of injury.
Adjusting the handlebar position
Handlebar height
• The height of the handlebar can be individually adjusted.
• Start with the adjustment of the handlebar post to the sitting height. A higher
adjustment of the handlebar post provides a more upright sitting; a lower adjustment
offers a more bent over posture.
• In order to adjust the height of the handlebar, pull the adjusting levers of the
handlebar post up and push the bar up or down as desired. Push the adjusting lever
down to the locked position to secure the handlebar post again.
• Do not make any adjustments beyond the stop markings.
Horizontal adjustment
• Release the upper adjusting lever on the handlebar post and push the handlebar
forwards or backwards as desired.
• The horizontal adjustment should be done so that you can comfortably grasp the
handlebar with a slight bending of the elbow.
• Do not make any adjustments beyond the stop markings.
Hand position
• In order to avoid a one-sided strain of muscles, ligaments, and joints, the hand
position should be continuously changed during longer training sessions. The
handlebar offers different grip possibilities.
Adjusting the saddle position
Saddle height
• Stand beside the seat post and adjust the saddle at hip-height.
• Rotate the pedal crank so that the pedals are in the vertical 12-6-o'clock position.
• Place one foot in the lower pedal and get on the indoor cycle. Your knee should be
slightly bent.
