PARTS REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
WARNING:
It is vitally important to keep the X-Bike Indoor Cycle properly maintained but if you are
unsure about any of the procedures for the removal or replacement of parts, you are
recommended to contact your authorised dealer.
NOTE: When carrying out any service or maintenance procedures, it is vital to ensure that
ALL hardware has been fully tightened and the assembly is returned to its original assembly
state prior to allowing the X-Bike Indoor Cycle to be used. If in doubt, contact your
authorised dealer.
Replacing the Resistance Pads
1. If the pad thickness is reduced to less than 4mm, they need to be replaced.
2. Using a 6mm hex key, loosen the bolt clamping the resistance cable to release the V-
brake mechanism.
Cable Release Bolt
3. Remove the screw at the back of the pad housing to release. Drop the pad out of the
assembly.
4. Fit new pad into the V-Brake assembly on both sides. Refit the screws complete with the
spring and washers. Tighten to within 2 full turns from the end.
5. Turn the Grip-shift™ fully clockwise to the minimum resistance setting. Using one hand,
compress the 2 pads of the V-Brake to just make contact with the flywheel. Pull the
excess cable until it is tight in the cable clamp. Retighten the bolt to secure the cable.
6. The resistance is set, when the minimum setting is free from contact with the flywheel
and position 2 just makes contact.
Removing the Chain Guards
Outer Guard
1. Remove the 3 bolts holding the outer guard to the frame. These bolts are 1 at the rear, 1
underneath and 1 between the flywheel and the right hand fork (Left if you look into the
bike from the front where it is accessed)
