SEAT

ADJUSTMENT

Set your weight before every workout. This allows the Z7 Bike to control your workout more effectively.

The body weight setting does not affect the calorie expenditure calculation. Unlike treadmills or other weight-bearing exercises, calories burned during exercise

biking does not change with different body weights.

Adjust the seat so that when your leg is fully extended with your feet in the pedals, your knee is slightly bent.

While standing next to the bike, pull out the seat adjust knob and lower the seat to the lowest position. Next, get onto the bike with one leg fully extended in a pedal, supporting most of your weight. Grasp the horn of the seat and pull it up under you to a snug fit, letting the ratcheting mechanism lock the knob and pin in place.
