spot damage on a composite drive arm, DO NOT RIDE the
bike. Instead, contact our service department at
service@elliptigo.com for support.
16. Visually inspect the frame to ensure it is free from
damage.
17. For C-series and model 8S and 11R bikes, check
the adjustment on the internal hub. Shimano
11-speed: Make sure that the gear shifter is in 6th gear
and then look into the alignment window. Ensure that
the yellow indicators are aligned. Shimano 8-speed:
Make sure that the gear shifter is in 4th gear and then
look into the alignment window. Ensure that the yellow
indicators are aligned. Sturmey-Archer 3-speed: Make
sure that the gear shifter is in 2nd gear and ensure
that the tip of yellow arrow is between the two
yellow marks. If the yellow indicators or arrow are not
aligned, visit our website support page for a how-to
video or refer to the Gearing Systems section for
more information.
WARNING! NEVER RIDE ON AN INCORRECTLY
ADJUSTED HUB. If your hub is not properly adjusted, it
can malfunction during normal riding. For example, it
can unexpectedly come out of gear, fail to shift, or shift
unexpectedly. Any of these situations can cause the rider
to lose control and suer a fall.
18. Ensure that the chain has the appropriate amount
of tension and is clean and lubricated. For C-series
and models 8S and 11R, when rotating the chain,
you should feel “tight spots” and “loose
spots” because the large and small cogs are not
perfectly round. The chain has the appropriate
amount of tension for these bikes when it is tight
without binding thru the entire revolution of the
crank arm. ElliptiGO Arc bikes come equipped with a
chain tensioner. Check to see that the chain tensioner
is performing correctly.
19. For C-series and models 8S and 11R, check
that the nuts holding the rear wheel to the frame
are tightened appropriately. For torque specifications
refer to The Torque Requirements for Screws and
Fasteners section below. For the ElliptiGO® Arc,
check that the rear wheel is properly seated in the
frame dropouts and that the quick release lever is
properly secured.
WARNING! Loose rear wheel nuts or an improperly
secured quick release lever on the rear wheel can allow
the rear wheel to come loose while riding. This condition
is exceptionally hazardous and can cause the rider to
suer a fall that will almost certainly result in serious
injury or death. BEFORE RIDING ALWAYS ENSURE THE
REAR WHEEL IS PROPERLY SECURED.
20. If you have mounted toe cages on your drive arm
foot platform, ensure that they are properly adjusted
for the shoes you are wearing.
21. For the Arc model, check the foot platform security
and adjustment. Check that each foot platform is
adjusted correctly relative to the pivot axle below and
is securely fastened to the pivot axle. Then check that
