INITIAL
INSTALLATION CHECKS
The cycle tune-up must be performed at initial installation of the indoor cycle for optimal
performance and longevity. Please read and follow all instructions below. If the indoor cycle is
not installed and tuned as described, components may wear excessively and the indoor cycle
may become damaged. If you have questions about the installation, please contact Tomahawk
customer service www.indoorcycling.com
Note: Some maintenance procedures require acid-, silicone- and solvent free spray
lubricant (for example BRUNOX), and white lithium grease.
1. Make sure that the indoor cycle is level. If the indoor cycle rocks on the oor, turn the
leveling feet underneath the front and/or rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.
2. Verify emergency brake function to assure that emergency brake functions correctly.
3. Brake pad calibration: Turn resistance knob counterclockwise as far as possible (minimum
braking eect). Verify that there is a slight separation of the brake pad from ywheel. Brake pad
should barely touch the ywheel when resistance knob is turned counterclockwise as far as it
can go.
4. Apply spray lubricant to the brake pad using the lubrication holes on the plastic part or the
brake pad and externally on the felt pad. Make sure brake pad is thoroughly soaked from end
to end with lubricant spray. Wipe the excess from the ywheel.
* Best Practice: Use a rellable spray bottle lled with non-aerosol acid-, silicone- and
solvent- free spray lubricant purchased by the gallon (3.7 L) at the local hardware store.
5. Apply Lithium grease to the threads on the lower end of the brake rod. First, turn the resistance
knob clockwise until it stops. Apply a small amount of white lithium grease to the threads on the
brake rod above the two lock nuts.Then, turn the resistance knob counterclockwise until it stops.

HOW TO ADJUST THE
INDOOR CYCLE
The Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle can be adjusted for maximum comfort and exercise
eectiveness. The instructions below describe one approach to adjusting the Tomahawk IC3
Indoor Cycle to ensure optimal user comfort and ideal body positioning. You may choose to
adjust the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle dierently.
PEDAL STRAP ADJUSTMENT:
Sit on the saddle and position your feet on the pedals, with the balls of your feet directly above
the spindles of the pedals (see the drawing below). Adjust the pedal straps so the toe clips (cages)
are snug but not too tight. Note: When tting a bike with combi-pedals, the pedals feature toe
clips on one surface and SPD cleats on the opposite surface. If desired, use the SPD cleats with
cycling shoes instead of the toe clips.
Please do not adjust
saddle height beyond
the STOP mark on the
stem and ensure the pop
pin is fully engaged and
securely tightened
WARNING!
Please avoid overtightening the pop pin adjustment knob as this may cause damage to the
vertical aluminum stems.
SADDLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT:
Sit on the saddle and slowly pedal until the right pedal is in the lowest position. Your knees
should be slightly bent with no dropping of the hips. To avoid hyperextending your knees, make
sure that your legs are not completely straight.
Please do not adjust
saddle height beyond
the STOP mark on the
stem. Also ensure the pop
pin is fully engaged and
securely tightened

HOW TO ADJUST THE
INDOOR CYCLE
SADDLE HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT:
Proper horizontal adjustment of the saddle is very important in avoiding injury to the knees. Sit
on the saddle and move the pedals until the crank arms are in horizontal position.
Using your forward leg as a marker, your kneecap should be directly above the center of the pedal so that a straight line
is created between knee and center of the pedal (see the dotted line in image below).To adjust the horizontal position of
the saddle, rst dismount the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle. Next, loosen the rear lever handle, slide the saddle forward or
backward as required, and then retighten the lever handle.

Version 1.1 2014 IC-TKIC3B-01 Copyright by Indoorcycling Group GmbH 2014 | www.indoorcycling.com
HOW TO ADJUST THE
INDOOR CYCLE
Next, the horizontal position of the handlebar should be adjusted. If the handlebar is too close
to the saddle, your breathing may feel restricted. If the handlebar is too far from the saddle,
you may experience back discomfort. To adjust the horizontal position of the handlebar, rst
dismount the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle.
Check for proper handlebar position by positioning your elbow so that it touches the front tip of the saddle at a
90- degree angle and checking that the ngertip of your middle nger is touching the handlebar at the mid-point. If it is
not as described, loosen the fore/aft lever handle and slide the handlebar forward or backward until your middle nger is
touching the handlebar at the mid-point. Retighten the lever handle.The handlebar oers a wide variety of hand positions
for personal preferences. Changing your hand position can change the angle of your back, neck, and arms. To minimize
the stress on your muscles during your workouts, change your hand position frequently.
HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT:
Begin with the top of the handlebar at relatively the same height as, or just slightly higher than,
the top of the saddle (dotted horizontal line A in the drawing below) and at a neutral fore/
aft position (see dotted vertical line B in drawing below). If your knees touch the handlebars,
or if you experience back discomfort while pedaling for extended periods of time, the height of
the handlebars can be adjusted. First, dismount the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle. Next, turn the
front adjustment knob counterclockwise, slide the handlebar post up or down, and retighten
the adjustment knob.

HOW TO OPERATE THE
INDOOR CYCLE
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT:
The preferred level of diculty in pedaling (resistance) can be regulated in ne increments by
use of the resistance knob. To increase the resistance, turn the resistance knob clockwise.
To decrease the resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT: To stop the ywheel (wheel) while pedaling, pull up the red emergency handle. The ywheel should
quickly come to a complete stop. Please make sure your shoes are xed into the toe clip or, in case cycling shoes are
used, your shoe cleat is connected to the pedal binding while riding.
HOW TO MOVE THE TOMAHAWK IC3 INDOOR CYCLE:
Due to the weight of the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle, it is recommended that two people
move it. While one person lifts the back of the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle, the second person
rmly holds the handlebar and tips the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle forward until it rolls on the
wheels. Carefully move the Indoor Cycle to the desired location and then lower it. CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving the Indoor Cycle. Do not
attempt to move it over uneven surfaces. Make sure to allow a minimum safety space of
20 inches to the nearest equipment.
If the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle rocks on the oor after
being set down, turn the leveling feet (see diagram)
underneath the front or rear stabilizer until the
rocking motion is eliminated.
Important:
Please do not unscrew the leveling feet more than ½ inch!
LEVELLING FEET
TheTomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle does not have a free-moving flywheel (wheel).The pedals will continue to move
with the flywheel until the flywheel stops. Reducing speed in a controlled manner is required. To stop the flywheel
immediately, pull up the red emergency break handle. Always pedal in a controlled manner and adjust
your desired cadence according to your own abilities.
