If the handlebar is too close to the saddle, your breathing may feel restricted;if the handlebar
is too far from the saddle, you may experience back discomfort. To adjust the horizontal
position to the handlebar, rst dismount the cycle. Check for proper handlebar position by
positioning your elbow so that it is touching the front tip of the saddle at a 90 degree angle
and checking that the ngertip of your middle nger is touching the handlebar at the mid-
point. If it is not as described, then loosen the fore-aft lever and slide the saddle slightly
forward or backward until your middle nger is touching the handlebar at the mid-point, and
then retighten the handle. Changing your hand position can change the angle of your back,
neck, and arms. To minimize the stress on your muscles during your workouts, change your
hand position frequently.

Handlebar adjustment:
Begin with the top of the handlebar at relatively the same height or just slightly higher than
the top of the saddle (dotted horizontal line A in the drawing above) and at a neutral
fore/aft position (see dotted vertical line B in drawing above). If your knees touch the
handlebars or if you experience back discomfort while pedaling for extended periods of
time, the height of the handlebars can be adjusted. First, dismount the cycle. Next, turn the
front adjustment knob counter clockwise, slide the handlebar post up or down, and then
retighten the adjustment knob.
