Level the Indoor Cycle
Move the indoor cycle to where it will be used and level it by rotating the adjustable feet underneath the stabilizers. Leveling
the indoor cycle helps ensure a stable and quiet ride and reduces wear on the frame.When adjusted properly, there is no rocking
movement from one foot to the other.

Control Resistance (100 pro, 200 pro, 300 pro only)
The CycleOps Pro Series indoor cycle allows the user full control over resistance by adjusting the resistance knob. Lower resistance
levels enable the pedals to turn at a faster (less difficult) pace/cadence. Higher resistance levels enable the pedals to turn at a
slower (more difficult) pace/cadence.
1. Control pedaling resistance by using
the resistance knob located behind
the handlebar on the top tube of the
main frame assembly.
2.Turn the knob clockwise (+) to
increase resistance.Turn the knob
counterclockwise (-) to decrease
resistance.
3. In case of emergency or before
dismounting the indoor cycle, press
directly down on the resistance knob
to bring the flywheel to an abrupt
stop.
Adjust Resistance (400 pro only)
Pedaling resistance is automatically controlled by the Joule display, located on the handlebar. Reference the Joule user guide for
more information.

NOTE: After replacing the battery, Joule must relearn the coded ID for the sensor. Reference Joule user guide for instructions (avail-
able at www.cycleops.com).
Replace Hub Batteries (400 Pro/300 Pro only)
Over time, the batteries that power the electronics in the hub will need to be changed. See Preventative Maintenance for when to
replace. The CycleOps Pro Series indoor cycle uses two AA batteries.The battery cap is split to make this task as easy as possible.
1. Rotate the flywheel to access the bolt
on the handle side of the battery cap.
2. Using a 2.5mm Allen wrench, re-
move the bolt on the battery cap. Pull
the plastic battery cap away from the
hub using the molded handle.
3. Replace the batteries, paying close at-
tention to properly line up the +/- poles,
then replace the battery cap and tighten
the bolt.

Adjust Flywheel/Chain Tension
Over time and after substantial use, the chain on the CycleOps Pro Series indoor cycle will stretch. Adjusting the tension/align-
ment is a difficult task and improper adjustment can lead to premature chain/cog wear. It is recommended this task be done with
assistance from an authorized indoor cycle dealer.The chain tension has been adjusted properly when there is little or no play felt
when the pedals are rocked back and forth.
NOTE: Be sure to make small incremental adjustments to the tensioning hardware on both sides of the flywheel. Only adjusting
one side will lead to improper flywheel alignment and unwanted drive train wear and/or noise.
CAUTION: Improper chain adjustment will cause premature wear and may void the warranty.
CAUTION: NEVER put hands into or near the drive train while it is motion!

1. Using a 4mm Allen wrench, remove the

3. Use a 17mm cone wrench to hold the
axle locking nuts in place. Do not turn
the wrench, it is only used as a stabilizer.
With the other hand, use a 15mm box
wrench to loosen the flange nuts on the
axle. Repeat this process on each side of
the flywheel.
2. Pull chain down (midway between
chain ring and gear) to measure vertical
travel.Vertical travel should be approxi-
mately 1/4”. Vertical travel with signifi-
cantly more or less than 1/4”should be
adjusted.

1/4”when the chain has been properly
adjusted.Tighten flange nuts to 75 in-lbs.
Do not overtighten.

Adjust Brake Pad (100 Pro, 200 Pro, 300 Pro only)
The brake mechanism has been adjusted at the factory. However, over time due to chain stretch and brake pad wear, it may need
to be adjusted.To replace/adjust brake pad, use the following procedure:
1. Back off resistance until it the knob
stops turning (counterclockwise). Then
turn clockwise 180 degrees (1/2 turn).
2. Loosen the clamping bolts with a
5mm Allen wrench. Align the brake
pad by sliding it towards the flywheel.
Stop when the pad just touches the
flywheel. Align the arc of the brake
pad with the arc of the flywheel.
3.Tighten clamping bolts to 50 in-lbs.
When properly adjusted, the CycleOps
Pro Series indoor cycle should register
around 30 watts at 90 rpm at the lowest
resistance setting (can only be validated
on 300 Pro).
Adjust Brake Pad (400 Pro only)
The brake mechanism has been adjusted at the factory and has an electronically adjusted brake pad. Instead of manually adjust-
ing the brake pad, plug the indoor cycle in for 60 seconds and then remove the plug.This resets and places the brake pad in the
furthest position (lightest resistance).
CHAPTER 6: PREVEnTATiVE mAinTEnAnCE
Performing necessary preventative maintenance is key to keeping the CycleOps Pro Series indoor cycle in proper working condi-
tion. Following the recommended maintenance procedures will help extend the life of the CycleOps Pro Series indoor cycle.
NOTE: Never use abrasive cleaning liquids or petroleum-based solvents when wiping down the indoor cycle. ANy CLEANING LIQ-
UIDS MUST BE OF A MILD PH such as Dawn dish washing liquid, Pine Sol, Murphy’s Oil Soap and Mr. Clean. A standard bike polish
can be used on the painted parts of the indoor cycle.
DAILy
After each day the indoor cycle is ridden, perform the following:
• Release all tension from the resistance knob.
• Wipe down the handlebar.
• Wipe down seat/seat post.
• Wipe down flywheel.
• Wipe down frame.
• Wipe down chain guard.
• Wipe down resistance knob.
• Wipe down handlebar post.
• Wipe down stabilizers.

WEEKLy
In addition to daily maintenance, perform the following each week:
• Inspect and adjust brake pad.
• Properly tighten pedals and all hardware attaching toe clips/straps (if applicable).Tighten pedals to 300 in-lbs.
• Inspect handlebar clamp assembly. Tighten clamp bolt if loose.
• Inspect seat post clamp and clamp assembly.Tighten clamp bolt if loose.
• Inspect stabilizer feet.Tighten if necessary.
• Inspect flywheel. Check for proper alignment.Tighten flange locking nuts to 75 in-lbs.
MONTHLy
In addition to daily and weekly maintenance, perform the following each month:
• Remove handlebar post and seat post and clean both the tubes as well as inside the plastic sleeves. Inspect the sleeves for
scoring. Replace if there is vertical slippage.
• Clean the underside of the stabilizer feet.
• Clean the flywheel with mild detergent or a damp cloth.
• Check the chain tension to ensure that the chain is properly adjusted.
• Inspect brake pads for wear. Replace pads if there is less than 2mm of felt pad exposed.
BIANNUAL
In addition to daily, weekly and monthly maintenance, perform the following every six months:
• Lubricate chain using the lubrication port on the back of the chain guard. Liberally spray a Teflon-based lubricant onto the
chain. Be sure each link gets lube. Be careful not to over-lubricate the chain. Excess lube will drip out and can stain floors/car-
pet.
ANNUAL
In addition to daily, weekly, monthly and biannually maintenance, perform the following after extended use (this may or may not
be annually):
• Apply a light coating of lithium grease on the threads of the stabilizer bolts, stabilizer feet and pedals.This prevents the parts
from seizing over time.
• Replace batteries in hub or sensor.
