ADJUSTMENTS

CHAIN TENSION & ADJUSTMENT

The chain on your bike has been factory set and lubricated. It should not require adjustment initially. Over time, however, you may need to adjust the tension.

CAUTION: Improper chain adjustment will cause premature wear and may void the warranty.

To adjust chain on Spinner® V:

1.Using a 3mm Allen Wrench, remove the three screws supporting the plastic chain guard shroud.

2.With an adjustable wrench, loosen the two nuts on both sides of the flywheel (Figure 1 & 2).

3.Tighten the two bolts that go through the frame, moving the flywheel forward by turning clockwise, until there is approximately 3/16” of slack in the chain (Figure 1 & 2).

4.Re-tighten the two bolts on both sides of the flywheel and replace the chain guard shroud.

NOTE: If the chain is too tight, typically the rider will feel a strong vibration between 20 and 50 RPMs. If this happens, loosen the bolts 1/2” turn until the vibration disappears, then tighten the lock nuts.
