SAFETY
INFORMATION
Read this manual carefully before using the Flywheel Home Bike.
Follow all operating and maintenance instructions. Please keep
this manual for future reference. Improper use or maintenance
can result in injury and void the warranty terms.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of serious injury due to improper use of the
equipment, carefully read and adhere to the following important
precautions and information before operating the Flywheel Home
Bike.
1. It is the sole responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users
of the Flywheel Home Bike are informed and aware of all warnings
and precautions.
2. Operate and maintain the Flywheel Home Bike only as described
in this manual and after proper assembly and functionality check.
3. Keep the Flywheel Home Bike indoors, away from moisture and
dust. Do not place the Flywheel Home Bike outdoors, in a garage
or covered patio or near water or pools. Operating temperature
of the Flywheel Home Bike has to be between 15°C~ 40°C Celsius
(59°~104°F) at max. humidity of 65%.
4. Place the Flywheel Home Bike on a horizontal and stable
surface. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat beneath the bike. Make sure that there is adequate room
(28 inches/0.7m) around the bike to assemble, disassemble and
operate it.
5. Regularly inspect and properly tighten all parts of the Flywheel
Home Bike as recommended in this manual. Please replace
defective parts immediately and do not use the bike until repair is
performed. Only use original parts from the manufacturer.

4
6. The Flywheel Home Bike can be used by children aged 14
years and above, as well as persons with lack of experience and
knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities are prohibited from using the Flywheel Home
Bike. Children shall not play with the bike. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
7. The Flywheel Home Bike should not be used by persons
exceeding weight of 330 lbs/150 kg. The bike is designed to
accomodate most persons with body height between 5’1’’ to 7’ 0’’
(155 cm to 215 cm).
8. Always wear appropriate tight-fitting cycling or athletic attire
and sturdy shoes, while operating the bike. Unfastened shoelaces
may become caught in the drive system and lead to injury.
9. The Flywheel Home Bike does not have an independently-
moving flywheel. The pedals will continue to move with the
flywheel until the flywheel stops. The movement can only be
stopped by using the emergency brake or by reducing the
pedaling frequency in a controlled manner. Always ride with
resistance load to ensure that your pedaling motion is controlled.
Do not adjust handlebar or saddle during workout. Do not pedal
backwards.
10. Keep your back straight while using the Flywheel Home Bike;
do not arch your back.
11. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising, stop immediately.
It is recommended that you consult a doctor if the pain does not
subside for an extended period of time.

If the Flywheel Home Bike is not maintained as
described, components may wear excessively and the
Flywheel Home Bike may become damaged. Improper
maintenance will void the warranty terms.
NOTE
Many maintenance procedures require lubricant spray.
Manufacturer recommends using only silicone free,
solvent free and acid free lubricant.
PREVENTATIVE
MAINTENANCE
Feet leveling, disinfection & cleaning of the bike Daily
Detailed bike cleaning Weekly
Check emergency brake function Bi-weekly
Handlebar and seat slider and stem lubrication Monthly
Tablet cleaning with lint-free cloth or electronics cleaner As needed
EQUIPMENT WARNING
• The safety of the Flywheel Home Bike can only be
ensured if the bike (saddle, drive train, brake and
pedals) are checked on a regular basis for wear
and damage. Regular maintenance must also be
performed on the bike for optimal performance
and longevity.

20
DAILY MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the Flywheel Home Bike is leveled. If the bike rocks
on your floor, turn the leveling feet underneath the front or rear
stabilizer until the
rocking motion is eliminated.
After exercising, the bike should be disinfected and cleaned to
maintain a hygienic environment. First, apply a disinfectant spray
to a lint free cloth and rub down the handlebars, saddle, and ad-
justment knobs and handles. Avoid using strong detergents on the
bike frame.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Depending on how often the bike is used, it must be cleaned ex-
tensively once a week. To do this, apply maintenance spray onto
a soft cloth and clean all plastic parts, the entire flywheel, and
exposed framework parts including the stabilizers and the plastic
casing. Never spray maintenance spray or anything else directly
onto the bike, especially the flywheel and pedals, as this could
cause the drive belt to slip during use, reduce braking perfor-
mance, or damage internal components.
BI-WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Emergency brake: To ensure operating safety, the emergency
brake must be regularly checked to make sure it is function-
ing properly. To do this, completely press down the resistance/
brake knob whilst pedaling. When functioning optimally, it should
produce an immediate braking eect and bring the flywheel to
a complete standstill. The flywheel is only released by the emer-
gency braking function after coming to a complete standstill and
pressure is removed from the pedals.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
Saddle / Handlebar adjustments: To maintain easy adjustment,
the vertical and horizontal saddle posts must be regularly cleaned
and lubricated. To do this, position the vertical saddle post in the
uppermost position, spray maintenance spray onto a soft cloth,
and rub down the entire exterior surface including the horizontal
post. Clean sweat residue o the contact surfaces of the horizon-
tal sliders beforehand, and if necessary, apply a small amount of
lithium/grease.
