Warning: USE CAUTION WHEN MOUNTING AND RIDING YOUR BICYCLE ON THE REVOLUTION FOR THE FIRST
TIME. START PEDALING SLOWLY TO GET A FEEL FOR THE EQUIPMENT. RIDING THE REVOLUTION FEELS A LOT
LIKE RIDING ON THE ROAD, BUT TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO GET USED TO. SHIFT THROUGH THE GEARS TO
ENSURE CLEAN AND PROPER SHIFTING. IT SHOULD NOT BE NECESSARY TO ADJUST YOUR DERAILLEUR TO WORK
WITH THE REVOLUTION, HOWEVER, SUBTLE DIFFERENCES IN BICYCLES EXIST AND MAY MAKE SHIFTING FEEL
DIFFERENT. AS YOU GET MORE COMFORTABLE WITH THE REVOLUTION TRAIN HARDER AND ENJOY THE RIDE.
Adjusting the fit
If your bicycle is set up properly for your body then you should not need to make any adjustments prior to rst use with
the Re v o l u t i o n . If you are unsure about the setup of your bicycle please visit your local bike shop prior to using it with your
The LeMond Re v o l u t i o n .
BAsic OperAtiOn
With your bike safely installed on the• Re v o l u t i o n , mount the bicycle normally and begin to pedal.
wArning: DURING YOUR FIRST USE OF THE REVOLUTION START PEDALING SLOWLY AT FIRST TO GET A FEEL
FOR THE EQUIPMENT. SHIFT THROUGH THE GEARS ON YOUR BIKE AT A SLOW PEDALING PACE TO ENSURE
OVERALL STABILITY PRIOR TO EXERTING HEAVY PEDAL FORCE.
We designed the• Re v o l u t i o n to be stable in all riding conditions, including standing up, however use caution when
pedaling standing up as the bike and trainer may tilt and become unbalanced.
Just like riding outside, pedaling resistance on the• Re v o l u t i o n is determined by how hard you pedal. If you want to
train harder–pedal harder.
wArning: IF AT ANY TIME DURING YOUR WORKOUT, YOU FEEL CHEST PAIN, EXPERIENCE SEVER MUSCULAR
DISCOMFORT, FEEL FAINT, OR ARE SHORT OF BREATH, STOP EXERCISING IMMEDIATELY. IF THE CONDITION
PERSISTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR MEDICAL DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.
Before dismounting, allow the• Re v o l u t i o n to spin down and stop. The trainer is not equipped with a brake, and
therefore the fan and pulley will continue to spin after pedaling has stopped.
wArning: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SLOW OR STOP THE PULLEY OR FAN! ANY ATTEMPT TO SLOW OR STOP THE
TRAINER CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
Obtain a complete physical examination from your medical doctor and enlist a health/tness professional’s aid in•
developing an exercise program suitable for your current health status.
When working out for the rst time, start out slowly for a minimum of ve minutes. After your muscles are warmed•
up, gradually increase the pedaling rate to a speed that allows you to attain your target heart rate zone.
The speed and duration of your exercise program should always be subject to how you feel. Never permit peer pres-•
sure to exceed your personal judgment while exercising.
Overweight or severely unconditioned individuals should be particularly cautious when using the• Re v o l u t i o n for the
rst time. Even though such individuals may not have histories of serious physical problems, they may perceive the
exercise to be far less intense than it really is, resulting in the possibility of overexertion or injury.
