How to Maintain a Spinning Bike With a Squeaking Flywheel : Indoor Cycling 

My bike is brand new and I'm pleased I came across this !

I had some 3-1 oil handy. I don't think I even used half a teaspoon on my j-cloth. IT WORKED IMMEDIATELY!! Thanks for posting this!!!!!

I used a silicone based lubricant and it worked perfectly!

Trying this tomorrow as mine has done this since the day I got it and it is aggravating that I didn't know how to stop it. Thank you

We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. ru-vid.comUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.

Just did what you said. It worked with nasty bicycle squeaky sounds. Thank you 👍

It works perfectly. My ears thank you !

Thanks for the tip! I used a standard bike chain lubricant - noise gone - wonderful!!!

Brilliant - very easy it worked. WD40 in the UK.

Thanks this completely stopped my bike squeaking

Nice! I am sending this to help one of my customers. Thank you

youtube the school of life Thanks for the tip

Thank you for this review. Very informative.

Worked perfectly, how often should i do it?

I always hated my spin cycle cause of the squeaking and thought I'd bought a dud. As soon as I saw your video I ran to my garage to get my bike chain lube and it was fixed instantly. Thank-you!!!!

Nice! Thanks for posting.

my spinbike flywheel has scratches on it from the brake pad resistance. how can i fix that?

My dad and I just used "CRC Disc Brake Quiet" found at local auto parts store.

Hi, can you tell me what kind of lubricant? I googled lubricant for spin bikes and read that you you place a few drops on the brake mechanism but never contact the brake pads with the lubricant. So I'm confused. Are they talking about the same kind of lubricant you are? I believe its simply a silicone lubricant.

Actually just used some olive oil on a towel and that worked. 😊

We seem to have a high pitch sound . Only when we increase the resistance with speed. Example “ high intensity.” Thoughts?

What is the name of the lubricant you used?

I was thinking bout buying it for my balcony, is this a bad idea? Should spin bikes only be kept inside?

Thank you so much....💪😷

Would this apply to a bike that has magnetic resistance?

Hi thanks that's very useful! Also, how do I stop my seat for squeaking? If you had another solution/video, I would be happy to know. I got the bike from Facebook market, it's all good except my seat (and the flywheel that can do with some lubricant too!)

How often do you use lubricant on the bike?

I have a diamond back and it doesn’t have brakes. I’m getting a squeaking sound when I pedal. I’m surprised any exercise bike has a brake.

So your solution is go shopping and ask somebody... 😂

I don’t know like my spinner gets more tighter and it’s really hard to push.

By saying ''go to the bike shop they'll know what you need'' instead of just telling us the kind of lubricant you used doesn't really help anyone does it?

Brake pad smell bad!!! What can you do about that?!

Huh? What brakes? I have a stationary bike, it's not going anywhere.

Human environment

Hi Denise, advice: why not showing how to swipe the bike on the other side of the bike (..we dont see how you do that on your video..)

No mentions of the top? Ok then...

My bike in back little dirty

Get em out

why do you have brake pads on an indoor bike?

hope that top was never worn again?!
