MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
This is general information for daily, weekly and monthly maintenance to be performed on your bike.
DAILY MAINTENANCE
After each exercise session, wipe all over the
equipment: seat, frame, and handlebars. Pay
special attention to the seat post, handlebar post,
and belt/chain guard. Sweat is very corrosive and
may cause problems that require parts
replacement later.
1. Get on the bike and engage the drive train.
2. Pay attention to any vibrations felt through the
pedals. If you feel any vibrations, you may
need to tighten the pedals, bottom bracket, or
adjust the drive belt/chain tension.
3. Use a wrench to tighten the pedals until they
are secure.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
1. Check if all hardware is secure, such as: water
bottle holder, flywheel nuts, belt/chain guard
bolts, brake caliper lock nuts, and brake caliper
tension rod nuts.
2. Inspect the brake tension rod for signs of wear
such as missing threads. Clean and lubricate
the brake tension rod.
3. Clean and lubricate the seat post, handlebar
post and seat slider. Remove any buildup of
foreign material.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
1. Inspect moving parts and tighten the hardware.
2. Inspect pull pin frame fittings to make sure the
fittings are secure. Loose frame fittings may
strip out threads over time and cause
extensive damage.
3. Clean and lubricate pop pin assemblies. Pull
on the pin and spray a small amount of
lubricant onto the shaft.
4. Tighten the seat hardware to make sure the
seat is level and centered.
5. Brush and treat the resistance pads. Remove
any foreign material that may have collected
on the pads. Spray the pads with silicone
lubricant. This helps to reduce noise from
friction between the pads and the flywheel.
6. Visually inspect the bottom bracket, toe clips
and toe straps. If any of them are loose or
disconnected, attach and tighten.
LEATHER BRAKE PAD CARE (If Applicable)
1. Perform this maintenance when the brake pad is
first installed and for the life of the brake pad.
Following these simple guidelines can increase
the life of your brake pads.
2. Some brake pad assemblies are pre-lubricated.
Squeeze the brake pad. If lubricant is released,
then the pad has been pre-lubricated.
3. If the brake pad is dry, then coat the brake pad
with 3-n-1 oil. Brush the leather with a clean, wire
bristle brush, and then apply the oil. The oil
should be allowed to soak in to the pad. Repeat
4-5 times until the pad is saturated, but not
dripping with oil. When the pad is saturated, it will
no longer absorb oil.
4. Inspect the brake pad weekly and lubricate if
needed. The pad should not have a glazed
appearance. If the pad appears glazed, then
brush it with wire brush and apply lubricant as
needed. If any of the sponge padding is showing
through the leather pad, the brake pad should be
replaced.
