where do I find an assembly manuel for a spin bike?




MOXIE


for a Velocity Fitness Motion Series Spin Bike with monitor.


Answer
Perhaps you could do a Yahoo! search?

EDIT: If you bought the Walmart version then I recommend that you go back to your local store and obtain one. These were made for Walmart, and actually should be relatively easy to assemble with basic mechanical ability.

Thats not to say that they'll last very long...

How should I upgrade my road bike? I have a Trek Pilot 1.0?

I want to upgrade my road bike. I have a Trek Pilot 1.0. The only upgrades I've done to it are adding Shimano clip-style pedals and shoes.

What would be my best value? I won't be racing or anything, I just want my ride to be bit more efficient. Also, I don't want to spend a ton of money.

Links to products would be appreciate, as I have no idea what I'm looking for : ) Thanks.
I was thinking more along the line of additional hardware. I usually use my bike for riding to work or casual riding, so I'm not inclined to buy fancy cycling clothes.

The guy at the bike shop suggested a new set of wheels. He said the bike would ride like a much more expensive bike with a decent wheel upgrade.



Answer
I have a bike with that level of components and these were my upgrades in the order I did them.

Cadence meter, made one from a $10 Schwinn cyclocomputer from Walmart. Get a cateye strada.

Cycling shorts, more comfortable and a lot cooler.

Clipless pedals, wanted to upgrade from clips

Cycling jersey, wanted to stay cooler

Cycling trainer, determined not to have to start over every spring.

Out of all of them the Cadence meter made the most improvement or should I say allowed me to make the most improvement. Learning to spin at 70-90 rpm's with a lite pressure made a huge difference in speed and endurance.

All of these things can be used on all my bikes and transferred to a new one. The best upgrade is your fitness.
