1. Base Stabilization
Attach the front and rear stabilizer bars to the main frame using the provided bolts and washers. Ensure they are tightened securely to prevent wobbling.
2. Pedal Installation
Attach the pedals to the crank arms. Note that the left pedal (L) and right pedal (R) have different threading. Turn the left pedal counter-clockwise and the right pedal clockwise to tighten. Ensure they are firmly secured.

3. Seat and Handlebar Adjustment
Insert the seat post into the frame and adjust the height to a comfortable position using the adjustment knob. The recommended maximum user height is 170 cm. The seat height can be adjusted between 55 - 75 cm. Similarly, attach the handlebars and adjust their angle if applicable, ensuring all securing bolts are tight.

4. Computer and Resistance Bands
Mount the computer display unit onto the handlebar post. Connect any necessary sensor cables. Attach the resistance bands (expanders) to their designated points on the frame, ensuring they are securely fastened and ready for use.
Operating Instructions
1. Adjusting Resistance
The Spokey Onego Hometrainer features a mechanical resistance system with 8 adjustable levels. To increase or decrease the resistance, turn the resistance knob located below the handlebars. Turn clockwise to increase resistance and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
Figure 4: Close-up of the resistance adjustment knob. This knob allows users to manually select one of the 8 resistance levels, indicated by the '+' and '-' symbols for increasing and decreasing resistance.
2. Using the Computer Display
The integrated computer monitors your workout progress. It typically displays:
- Time: Duration of your workout.
- Speed: Current cycling speed.
- Distance: Total distance covered during the session.
- Calories: Estimated calories burned.
Press the mode button (usually a single button on the display) to cycle through the different metrics or to reset the values. The display is battery-powered.

3. Utilizing Resistance Bands (Expanders)
The Spokey Onego includes resistance bands for upper body workouts. While seated on the hometrainer, grasp the handles of the resistance bands and perform various arm and shoulder exercises. This helps to engage more muscle groups for a full-body workout.
