MAINTENANCE
The safety level given by the design of the Indoor Cycle can only be maintained when the equipment is regularly examined for
damage and wear. Inoperable components should be replaced or the equipment should be put out of use until it is repaired.
DAILY
• Wipe down the Indoor Cycle after each use to remove sweat and moisture. Use soap and water, or a diluted non-abrasive
domestic cleaner solution. Rinse to remove detergent residue and then dry off.
• Before each session, inspect for loose components such as pedals or cranks prior to commencing the next use. Tighten up
any loose parts.
WEEKLY
• Check for proper flywheel alignment. Torque flywheel nuts as necessary.
• Remove chain guard and check for loose chain. Adjust and lubricate the chain as necessary.
• Check to make sure the crank arms are tight to the bottom bracket.
• Inspect all parts, nuts, bolts, or screws for adjustments, replacements or maintenance.
MONTHLY
• Inspect the frame and main assembly components for rust or corrosion. Tilt the cycle or place in an upside down position to
locate areas where rust and corrosion may develop. Use a small, wire brush to remove rust build-up in small crevasses, such
as leveling feet, quick release levers and other bolt assemblies.
• Inspect all wear items for adjustments or possible part replacement. Give particular attention to the following:
A) Inspect brake pad for wear. Excessive wear or dryness indicates replacement is required.
B) Inspect seat pad for wear. Rips, tears or excessive movement indicates replacement is required.
C) Inspect pedals for play. Excessive movement of pedals indicates replacement is required.
• Inspect the chain for tensioning by rotating the crank to drive the flywheel forward. Do this motion in 1/4 turns to assess if
there is free play between the crank and the flywheel.
• Dryness or prolonged use may cause the height and reach adjustments for the seat and handlebar to become tight. If this is
the case, the sliding assembly should be removed from the frame and have a smear of light duty grease applied along the
sliding surface before assembly. Similarly, apply some light grease to the clamping assembly to ensure it does not seize up.
Clean off excessive grease before reassembly.
• Please lubricate the seat post, brake pad and handlebar adjustment regularly with lubricant in your parts package.
