what is the spindle radius? with limited range of motion, the size of the "peddle circle" is important.

It's about 9 inches. With feet it would be about 12 inches I think. It's small enough that I can put it under my desk and peddle.

The stirrup is about 3 1/4" W x 3" high. (I wear a size 9 shoe and wear them while peddling, fit fine).

I'm not a mathematician, but I measured, on one side from the base of the spindle to the top of the pedal as approximately 4.5". The frame is also adjustable. I have fairly long legs, and have no problem, but since the unit is mobile, it can easily be used with any height of seat. So, between the choice of seat height and the adjustment to the unit, I think that pretty much anyone should be able to comfortably use it. Hopefully this will work out for you; I love mine!

I'm not sure I know what you mean by "spindle radius". I did feel that the peddle circle was shorter that a regular bicycle. Our problem was with the quality of construction. After just a few weeks of use, the peddle connection to the unit developed a wobble. So the peddle circle is no longer a true circle. That wobble is extremely uncomfortable when peddling.

I am finished with this and have moved on to regular recumbent bike and stationary bike. The Peddler was great as I was recovering from knee replacement surgery. I gave it to my friend who is recovering from a horrific accident.

It is a small rang. I don't know where mine is right now but the radius couldn't be more than 5-6 inches. Works great but very hard (sometimes painful)to catch due to hard plastic.

There are 5 bits plus a spare 3/8 bearing. The Radii: 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4

7/8", standard, without modification. You could, in theory, cut away some of the rubber around the nut if you need it to fit in a smaller hole. But this might reduce the grip strength.

Shorter. It is long enough for a cartwheel or one back walkover or handspring but not a series.

I don't think the speend would be sufficient, but you could try it. The spindle is not very strong though. Mine broke after the second wheel. Have to contrive a new one somehow.

Yes, you can access the bearings for lubrication, as seen in the pictures. I think you could control the tightness of bearings by controlling the tightness of the pedal on the spindle.

Most rolling pins are 2 inches in diameter or smaller; these fit 2 1/4 inch - 3 inch diameter pins. Some rolling pins with ball bearings might be that thick, but no dowel pins that I have found are. Since these are supposed to be used for rolling out pastry dough, for which the dowel pins are ideal, it seems to me that the designers of these weren't thinking.

Hello T.,The Diameter of the wheel is right at or just shy (maybe 1/8") of 4 inches.

This machine has a 8" swing that means from center to lathe bed it's 4" and you would add another 4 = swing. The longer you go is fine for spindle work but if you plan on hollowing the piece it gets tight when working deep areas past 4". I bought a set of hand chisels for sculpting that were very thin and good quality metal and then made longer handles for them this helped during hollowing my past projects however the tail-stock gets in the way as well as the tightening mechanize on the top of the tail-stock. Additionally I maxed out the width with a round object and works great just testing the limits of the lathe but none round objects make the lathe walk away.

The furthest distance is approximately 2mm. The bottom cutting edge of the circle, closest to the handles is what determines this. You need to cut your circle close to a cut edge.

Pedal spindles come in two measurements: 1/2" and 9/16". It may seem similar but when you hold them side by side it makes a big difference. The good thing is that most Shimano cranks have 9/16" ports for pedals. This one should be 9/16"

It depends on the size, diameter of the axle of the pedals on the spin bike.

The one I purchased (the 3" & 4" size) has two square pieces that rotate on each other, the center of each piece is a depressed circle of the square metal pieces that contain the ball bearings that allow the pieces to rotate. The square pieces are identical and are either the top or bottom.

It is the length of the frame, not the diameter of the wheel that you adjust the rollers to.

Spindle is a 1 inch 8 tpi...threads per inch. No more than a 4 lb. chuck is what Rikon suggests.

The turn radius is "zero" just like they say. You can stop on a dime, do a 90-180-360 without moving off the dime.
