with the new battery.
NOTE: After replacing the battery, Joule or Smart Device must relearn the coded ID for the sensor. Reference Joule or
Smart Device user guide for instructions (available at www.cycleops.com).
Replace Hub Batteries (Phantom 3 & 5 only)
Over time, the batteries that power the electronics in the hub will need to be changed. See Preventative Maintenance for
when to replace. The CycleOps Phantom Series indoor cycle uses two AA batteries. The battery cap is split to make this task
as easy as possible.
1. Rotate the ywheel to access the
bolt on the handle side of the battery
cap.
2. Using a 2.5mm Allen wrench,
remove the bolt on the battery cap.
Pull the plastic battery cap away
from the hub using the molded
handle.
3. Replace the batteries, paying close
attention to properly line up the +/-
poles, then replace the battery cap
and tighten the bolt.

Adjust Flywheel/Chain Tension
Over time and after substantial use, the chain on the CycleOps Phantom Series indoor cycle will stretch. Adjusting the
tension/alignment is a difcult task and improper adjustment can lead to premature chain/cog wear. It is recommended
this task be done with assistance from an authorized indoor cycle dealer. The chain tension has been adjusted properly
when there is little or no play felt when the pedals are rocked back and forth.
NOTE: Be sure to make small incremental adjustments to the tensioning hardware on both sides of the ywheel. Only
adjusting one side will lead to improper ywheel alignment and unwanted drive train wear and/or noise.
CAUTION: Improper chain adjustment will cause premature wear and may void the warranty.
CAUTION: NEVER put hands into or near the drive train while it is in motion!

5. Pull chain down (midway between
chain
ring and gear) to measure vertical
travel. Vertical travel should be approximately
1/4” when the chain has been properly
adjusted. Tighten ange nuts to 75 in-
lbs. Do not overtighten.
3. Use a 17mm cone wrench to hold
the axle locking nuts in place. Do not
turn the wrench, it is only used as a
stabilizer. With the other hand, use a
15mm box wrench to loosen the ange
nuts on the axle. Repeat this process
on each side of the ywheel.
10
Adjust Brake Pad (Phantom 1 & 3 only)
The brake mechanism has been adjusted at the factory. However, over time due to chain stretch and brake pad wear, it
may need to be adjusted. To replace/adjust brake pad, use the following procedure:
1. Back off resistance until it the knob
stops turning (counterclockwise). Then
turn clockwise 180 degrees (1/2 turn).
Adjust Brake Pad (Phantom 5 only)
The brake mechanism has been adjusted at the factory and has an electronically adjusted brake pad. Instead of manually adjusting the brake pad, plug the indoor cycle in for 60 seconds and then remove the plug. This resets and places the
brake pad in the furthest position (lightest resistance).
2. Loosen the clamping bolts with
a 5mm Allen wrench. Align the
brake pad by sliding it towards the
ywheel. Stop when the pad just
touches the ywheel. Align the arc
of the brake pad with the arc of the
ywheel.
3. Tighten clamping bolts to 50 in-lbs.
When properly adjusted, the CycleOps
Pro Series indoor cycle should register around 30 watts at 90 rpm at the
lowest resistance setting (can only be
validated on 300 Pro).
CHAPTER 6: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Performing necessary preventative maintenance is key to keeping the CycleOps Phantom Series indoor cycle in proper
working condition. Following the recommended maintenance procedures will help extend the life of the CycleOps Phan-
tom Series indoor cycle.
NOTE: Never use abrasive cleaning liquids or petroleum-based solvents when wiping down the indoor cycle. ANY CLEANING LIQUIDS MUST BE OF A MILD PH such as Dawn dish washing liquid, Pine Sol, Murphy’s Oil Soap and Mr. Clean. A
standard bike polish can be used on the painted parts of the indoor cycle.
DAILY
After each day the indoor cycle is ridden, perform the following:
• Release all tension from the resistance knob.
• Wipe down the handlebar.
• Wipe down seat/seat post.
• Wipe down ywheel.
• Wipe down frame.
• Wipe down chain guard.
• Wipe down resistance knob.
• Wipe down handlebar post.
• Wipe down stabilizers.
11
WEEKLY
In addition to daily maintenance, perform the following each week:
• Inspect and adjust brake pad.
• Properly tighten pedals and all hardware attaching toe clips/straps (if applicable). Tighten pedals to 300 in-lbs.
• Inspect handlebar clamp assembly. Tighten clamp bolt if loose.
• Inspect seat post clamp and clamp assembly. Tighten clamp bolt if loose.
• Inspect stabilizer feet. Tighten if necessary.
• Inspect ywheel. Check for proper alignment. Tighten ange locking nuts to 75 in-lbs.
MONTHLY
In addition to daily and weekly maintenance, perform the following each month:
• Remove handlebar post and seat post and clean both the tubes as well as inside the plastic sleeves. Inspect the
sleeves for scoring. Replace if there is vertical slippage.
• Clean the underside of the stabilizer feet.
• Clean the ywheel with mild detergent or a damp cloth.
• Check the chain tension to ensure that the chain is properly adjusted.
• Inspect brake pads for wear. Replace pads if there is less than 2mm of felt pad exposed.
BIANNUAL
In addition to daily, weekly and monthly maintenance, perform the following every six months:
• Lubricate chain using the lubrication port on the back of the chain guard. Liberally spray a Teon-based lubricant onto
the chain. Be sure each link gets lube. Be careful not to over-lubricate the chain. Excess lube will drip out and can
stain oors/carpet.
ANNUAL
In addition to daily, weekly, monthly and biannually maintenance, perform the following after extended use (this may or
may not be annually):
• Apply a light coating of lithium grease on the threads of the stabilizer bolts, stabilizer feet and pedals. This prevents
the parts from seizing over time.
• Replace batteries in hub or sensor.
