Maintenance on Spinning Bikes

Gym Tech Specializes in fitness equipment maintenance, service, and repair. If you have any problems or would like to use us for your maintenance needs you can always reach us at 866-496-8324.
After Each Use
• Dry the bike after each use to remove sweat and moisture.
• Bring the seat posts, and handle bars to the highest position so that air can dry off any moisture. This will prevent premature rust.

Daily
• Clean the bikes every evening by using fitness equipment cleaner and degreaser.
• Rinse all surfaces to remove detergent residue and then dry.
DO NOT wipe the chain with soap or a towel and DO NOT get any liquid on the brake pads.
NOTE: NEVER use a petroleum-based solvent for cleaning the bikes it is harmful to the paint.

Monthly
• Re-torque the crank arms and bottom bracket each month. Check your owners manual on the proper amount of torque ft-lbs.
• Inspect all parts, nuts, and screws for any adjustments, replacement or maintenance needs.
• Lubricate the chain with white lightning, using a bristle brush.
• Use fitness equipment silicone lubricant to lubricate the handlebars and seat post.

Quarterly
• Inspect the brake pads for wear, fraying, or any type of damage. If they are damaged, worn down, or completely black they should be replaced. Report to the owner or manager if the break pads need to be replaced so that they can place a parts order.
• If the brake pads are still in good working order than spray them with cycle lubricant this will help to prevent brake squeaking and chatter. It also extends the life of the pads.
• If the bike is chain driven inspect the chain for wear and proper tension. Tension if necessary.
• If the bike is belt driven inspect the belt for wear, cracking, or fraying. If the belt is damaged inform the owner or manager so that they may make arrangements to have the part replaced.
