GETTING STARTED

Once your New Balance 7.5r Recumbent Bike is assembled, make sure that your workout space has a solid, level surface with plenty of space around it. We recommend placing a mat under your unit to protect your flooring.

Correct Workout Position

When exercising, keep your back straight and your head in a neutral position to minimize neck and upper back strain. When pedaling do not lock out your knees, at the bottom of the pedaling motion there should be a slight bend in the knee. Always try to pedal the bike with a smooth and rhythmic motion.

DUAL SIDED PEDAL

Bottom Side of Pedal

Top Side of Pedal

The New Balance 7.5r has a dual side pedal. The top pedal is to be used with shoes and the bottom smooth side of the pedal is meant to be used with a bare or sock covered foot.

To use the bottom side of the pedal gently nest the balls of your feet into the pedal contour. You may have to try sliding your foot forward and backward before you feel it nest into the pedal. Once your foot is comfortably aligned with the pedal contour, tighten the strap so it is firmly around the foot.
