situation which could lead to personal injury
or damage of the equipment or even fire.
13. The trainer can be used without the external
power adapter, however the downhill

EN
SEAT HEIGHT
When you sit on the bike with your shoe on or in the pedal and press your leg fully downwards, your knee
should make an angle of 150 to 155 degrees. If this is not the case, change the height as follows:
1. Hold the saddle and loosen the seat post with the seat post adjustment bolt (D6).
2. Adjust the saddle height according to the mentioned requirements.
3. Tighten the seat post with bolt D6.
Please note, the maximum height of the seat is 26 cm (10.2 in), do not exceed this limit.
SEAT HORIZONTAL POSITION
When you sit on the bike with the crank arms horizontally (parallel to the floor), your knee should be
directly above the centre of the pedal. If this is not the case, change the horizontal position as follows:
1. Loosen the saddle rail with the saddle distance bolt (D4).
2. Adjust the horizontal position according to the mentioned requirements.
3. Tighten the saddle rail with bolt D4.
Please note, the maximum distance of the seat is 15 cm (5.9 in), do not exceed this limit.
If you need to move the saddle forwards or backwards severely, you may need to raise/lower the saddle
to compensate. Every time the saddle is moved forward the effective saddle height is reduced and vice
versa for moving the saddle backwards. If you move your saddle more than 1 cm recheck the saddle
height.
HANDLEBAR HEIGHT
Comfort dictates the appropriate height, so pick a position that minimizes strain on your back. Typically
the height is leveled with or slightly below the seat, with a maximum of 10 cm (3.9 in). Change the height
of the handlebars as follows:
1. Hold the handlebars and loosen the stem with the stem adjustment bolt (C5).
2. Adjust the height according to the mentioned requirements.
3. Tighten the stem with bolt C5.
Please note, the maximum height of the steer is 26 cm (10.2 in), do not exceed this limit.
HANDLEBAR HORIZONTAL POSITION
When you sit on the bike with your hands on top of the handlebars and your pedals parellel to the floor,
your elbow should be aligned with the inside of your knee and centre of the pedal. Or, you may opt to look
at the angle of your back which should be at least 45o parallel to the floor with an upper arm to torso
angle of 90o. If this is not the case, change the horizontal position of the handlebars as follows:
1. Loosen the handlebars with the handlebar distance bolt (C3).
2. Adjust the height according to the mentioned requirements.
3. Tighten the handlebars with the bolt C3.
Please note, the maximum distance of the steer is 15 cm (5.9 in), do not exceed this limit.
WARNING: Always dismount the NEO Bike before adjusting the saddle or handlebar height or positions.

OPTIONAL: Customize the bike by mounting your own saddle, handlebar tape or bottle cage as instructed
by the supplier. Please check the Tacx support website for instructions.
USE OF HANDLES: The handles T8015.15 and T8015.16 may be used to set the height and horizontal
position of the seat post and the saddle instead of a 6 and 8 mm allen key. This is especially handy when
you have to set this regularly; for example, when various persons use the NEO Bike. You can do so by
replacing the bolts; replace C5 and D6 by the T8015.16 and the C3 and D4 by the T8015.15.
