What are the most common exercise bike maintenance-related questions?
How can I fix a noisy exercise bike?
You can add lubrication to deal with squeaking or grinding noises from your stationary cycle. Using a silicone lubricant, spray the flywheel evenly. You can apply and release the brakes repeatedly during the process to fully lubricate them.
How do I change the resistance level on an exercise bike?
There are two methods for altering resistance, depending on the bike variety. You adjust some bikes manually by turning a knob clockwise for higher resistance and counterclockwise for easier pedaling. However, some bikes set difficulty levels electronically via the control panel.
What is the proper seat height for an exercise bike?
For most exercise bikes, your seat should be the same level as your hip when you stand on the ground next to the cycle. Most bikes have a knob that you loosen to adjust the seat position. You must tighten the knob again to secure the seat after you are done.
