2.If the bikes are used frequently in group exercise sessions, inspect for loose components such as pedals or cranks prior to commencing the next class. Tighten up any loose parts.

Weekly

1.Inspect the resistance wear pads for excessive wear or dryness. If necessary lubricate the pads with GT-85 or another PTFE based lubricant. As the pads wear with use, it will be necessary to adjust the resistance cable to compensate. The resistance cable can be adjusted as follows;

o Turn the minor adjuster wheel on the Grip-shift™ fully clockwise so that there will be sufficient cable in the minor adjustment block for future checks.

o Using a 6mm hex key, loosen the bolt at the bottom of the V-Brake to release the cable for adjustment.
