XBR25 Assembly Instructions Assembly Video To assist you in assembling your new Spirit Fitness fitness bike, we have posted an assembly video at the following link: http://www.spiritfitness.com/customerservice/video/fitnessbikevideos.html Pre-Assembly 1. 2. 3. Using a razor knife (Box Cutter), cut the banding straps that wrap around the carton. Reach under the bottom edge of the carton and pull it away from the cardboard underneath, separating the staples that join the two together.
STEP 1: Rear Stabilizer & Seat Back 1. 2. Attach the Rear Stabilizer (7) to the Main Frame (1) with the four Hex Head Bolts (65) and four Flat Washers (84). Tighten completely with the wrench (112). Attach the Seat Back (5) to the Seat Carriage (4) of the main frame. Slide a Hex Head Bolt (67) and a Hex Head Bolt (142) through each side, then attach a Flat Washer (77) and a Nyloc Nut (89) to each bolt. Tighten the bolts just enough so there is no side to side play, but freedom of movement front to back.
STEP 2: Console Mast 1. 2. 3. 4. Slide the Computer Cable (44) and Hand pulse Wire (133) through the bottom of the Console Mast Cover (31) and then the bottom of the Console Mast (2). Make sure the Console Mast Cover is correctly oriented (see illustration). Install the Console Mast (2) into the receiving tube (make sure not to pinch cables (44) and (133); damage to the electronics could occur) of the Main Frame (1). Insert two Hex Head Bolts (68) and two Flat Washers (76) on each side.
STEP 3: Seat & Handle Bar 1. 2. 3. Install the Seat (61) on the Seat Carriage (4) with four Phillips Head Screws (98). Tighten with the Phillips Head Screw Driver (114). Attach the Seat Handle Bar (6) to the Seat Carriage (4) with the four Hex Head Bolts (71), four Flat Washers (77), and four Nyloc Nuts (89). Tighten with the wrenches provided (112 & 132).

STEP 4: Plastic Parts 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Remove the Button Head Socket Screws holding the clamps of the left Release Lever (40) by using the M5 Allen Wrench (115). Install the Release Lever (40) onto the Handle Bar Seat (6) just behind the Hand pulse sensors on the left side (when facing the front of the bike). Install it at an angle that allows easy access for use, then reinsert and tighten the socket screws removed earlier. Don’t over tighten these screws.
Through research performed with a leading sports scientist and physical rehabilitation expert, Spirit Fitness engineering has developed a breakthrough in pedal design. Typical stationary exercise bikes are wider than a normal road bike. The reason is to allow for the braking mechanism, pulleys, drive components and plastic covers. Since the bike is wider, so is the distance between the pedals; this width between the pedals is called the Q factor.
Operation of Your Console XBR25 Console Large LCD with scrolling feedback and scrolling message center Swivel Fan to keep you cool Innovative programs offer a variety of work-outs Convenient cargo compartment for keys, phone, or MP3 player Easy-Touch Control Buttons Power When the A.C. Power cord is connected to the fitness bike, the console will automatically power up. If there is no input to the console for 20 minutes the console will go to stand-by mode.
Quick Start This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up you just press the Start key to begin, this will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero and the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the Level Up/ Down buttons. The dot matrix display will have only the bottom row lit at first. As you increase the work load more rows will light indicating a harder workout. The fitness bike will get harder to pedal as the rows increase.
Program Keys The program keys are used to preview each program. When you first turn the console on you may press each program key to preview what the program profile looks like. If you decide that you want to try a program, press the corresponding program key and then press the Enter key to select the program and enter into the data-setting mode. The fitness bike has a built in heart rate monitoring system.
The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the workload and not the computer. To start the Manual program, follow the instructions below or just press the Manual button, then the Enter key and follow the directions in the Message Center. 1. Press the Manual key, then press the Enter key. 2. The Message Center will ask you to enter your Age.
Preset Programs The fitness bike has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
Programming Preset Programs 1. Select the desired program button then press the Enter key. 2. The Message Center will ask you to enter your Age. You may adjust the age setting, using the Level Up/Down keys, then press the Enter key to accept the new number and proceed on to the next screen. 3. You are now asked to enter your Weight. You may adjust the Weight value using the Level Up/Down keys, then press Enter to continue. 4. Next is Time. You may adjust the time and press Enter to continue. 5.
Heart Rate Programs The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their usual choice of exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Rate of Perceived Exertion Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout. If you listen to your body, it will tell you all of these things.
Using A Heart Rate Transmitter Wearing The Chest Strap 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. Position the transmitter with the logo centered in the middle of your torso facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
Heart Rate Program Operation Note:You must wear the heart rate transmitter strap for this program The Heart Rate program default setting is 60% of your projected maximum heart rate. The 60-80% range is more conducive for fat loss goals and 81-100% ranges are generally used for cardiovascular conditioning goals and high intensity interval training. To start the program follow the instructions below or just press the HR key, then press the Enter button and follow the directions in the Message Center.
General Maintenance 1. 2. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of two reasons: I. The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible. It may be necessary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you cannot tighten the bolts sufficiently.
