Please note the Resistance level 1-9 on the flywheel lever or the paddle shaft length does not make a difference to the distance traveled / or time results. Results are calculated on a calibrated Drag factor and an input-able Athlete’s / user weight variant.
To avoid over-heating it may be prudent to employ the use of an air fan.
Please ensure you:
- Input your accurate body weight in Kg.
