ARE THE SOUNDS MY BIKE MAKES NORMAL?

Our bikes are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and friction free magnetic

resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to minimize noise. However, because the resistance

system itself is so quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder

technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our bikes. These

mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are normal and are caused by the transfer of

significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts and other rotating parts will

generate some noise which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is also normal for these sounds

to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of the parts.

WHY IS THE BIKE I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT THE STORE?

All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally more background

noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood

overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness

product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.

HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?

The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance free hours. Belts are

now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as motorcycle drives.

CAN I MOVE THE BIKE EASILY ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?

Your bike has a pair of transport wheels built into the front. It is easy to move your bike by rolling it on the

front transport wheels. It is important that you place your bike in a comfortable and inviting room. Your

bike is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will place their bikes facing the TV or a picture

window. If at all possible, avoid putting your bike in a unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable

daily activity for you, the bike should be in a comfortable setting.

CAN I PEDAL BACKWARDS ON MY BIKE?

You can pedal backwards on your bike, however, there will be no resistance.

WHAT KIND OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED?

We use sealed bearings throughout our bikes so lubrication is not needed. The most important maintenance

step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the bike after each use.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY BIKE?

Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts.

Cleanliness of your bike and its operating environment will keep maintenance problems and service

calls to a minimum. For this reason, AFG recommends that the following preventive maintenance

schedule be followed.

AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)

Turn off the bike by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet

• Wipe down the bike with a damp cloth. Never use solvents, as they can cause damage to

the bike.

• Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact AFG.

• Make sure the power cord is not underneath the bike or in any other area where it can become

pinched or cut.

To remove power from the bike, the power cord must be disconnected from the

wall outlet.

WEEKLY

Clean underneath the bike, following these steps:

• Turn off the bike

• Move the bike to a remote location.

• Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath

the bike.

• Return the bike to its previous position.

EVERY MONTH

• Inspect all assembly bolts and pedals on the machine for proper tightness.

• Clean any debris off of the seat guide rail.
