the top of the saddle (dotted horizontal line A in the drawing below) and at a neutral fore/

Next, the horizontal position of the handlebar should be adjusted. If the handlebar is too close
to the saddle, your breathing may feel restricted. If the handlebar is too far from the saddle,
you may experience back discomfort. To adjust the horizontal position of the handlebar, first
dismount the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor Cycle.
Check for proper handlebar position by positioning your elbow so that it touches the front tip of the saddle at a
90- degree angle and checking that the fingertip of your middle finger is touching the handlebar at the mid-point. If it is
not as described, loosen the fore/aft lever handle and slide the handlebar forward or backward until your middle finger is
touching the handlebar at the mid-point. Retighten the lever handle.The handlebar offers a wide variety of hand positions
for personal preferences. Changing your hand position can change the angle of your back, neck, and arms. To minimize
the stress on your muscles during your workouts, change your hand position frequently.
