.If your leg istoo straight or your foot cannot touch the pedal,you will needto
movethe seat down on the 10 bike, or forward onthe 20 bike. If your leg is bent
too much,you will need to movethe seat up on the 10bike or backward onthe
20 bike.
.Adjust the 10seat byfirst dismountingthe bike, then pulling outthe adjustment
knob onthe seat tube and releasing the locking pin. Lower or raise the seat to
the desired height. Releasethe seat knob, engaging the locking pin. Be sure
thatthe pin isfully secured in a seat posthole.
Toadjust the 20seat, pull the seat knob up with your right hand to release the
seat. Slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position. The knobwill

hand positions. Toadjust the angle ofthe handlebars, loosen knob, adjustthe
handlebarsto the desired position and re-tighten.
Resistance adjustment
Usingthe console, you have control over the levels of resistance integrated into
your workout. Typically,lower resistance levels enable you to move at a faster
pace, placing increased demandon your cardiovascular system. Higher resistance
levels will typically deliver more of a muscle/endurance workout at lower RPMs.
But everyone is different. So experiment andfind the beginning of resistance that
is comfortable for you.
