2.2 Recommended Seating Position

For optimal pedaling efficiency and comfort, ensure your seating position is correct:

  • Place the mini exercise bike as close to yourself as possible.
  • Press down with the balls of your feet. When the pedal reaches the bottom position, ensure your knee remains aligned with the pedal center for optimal pedaling efficiency. If the bike is too far, you'll rely more on your calves and feet to exert force.
  • Adjust your seat height so that: At the lowest pedal position, your lower thighs avoid contact with the seat; At the highest pedal position, the pedals don't hit the underside of your desk.
  • With proper seat height and positioning: Your thigh-calf angle should be 60°-70° at the top of the pedal stroke; 80°-85° at the bottom. This range delivers the best force transfer.
  • The more downward your pedaling force, the more stable the mini pedal exerciser feels.

Note: If using resistance below Level 4 or ergometer mode under 40W, and efficiency isn't a priority, feel free to adjust your sitting posture for comfort.
