Mounting and Dismounting
Once sitting comfortably on the Bike, make sure to tighten each toe strap securely before
commencing exercise. Dismount the bike by first loosening each toe clip and then removing
your feet from the pedals. Carefully step off the bike.
Your First Workout
Basic Instructions
Once an instructor has helped you to properly adjust the bike to your body size and you are sitting
comfortably on the bike, slowly begin pedalling. Allow your hands to rest comfortably on the
handlebars.
If at any time during your workout you feel chest pain, experience severe muscular
discomfort, feel faint, or are short of breath, STOP EXERCISING IMMEDIATELY. If the
condition persists, you should consult your medical doctor immediately.
Pedalling Resistance
Pedalling resistance is controlled by the turning of the Twist-grip™ located on the right side of the
handlebar. The minimum resistance setting is located with the Twist-Grip™ turned fully clockwise
– increasing to a maximum Resistance when the Twist-Grip™ is turned fully counter-clockwise. It
may be adjusted at any time during exercising by turning the Twist-grip™ to the desired resistance
setting.
X-Bar™ Handlebar System Resistance
Handlebar resistance is controlled by the knob located at the end of the resistance damper on the
right side of the head section. There are seven settings from minimum to maximum. The resistance
can be adjusted at any time by twisting the knob anti-clockwise for minimum and clockwise to
maximum setting.
* Your instructor will advise you on the correct use of the X-Bars™ System.
