Why is my recumbent bike making a squeaking noise?

The squeaking noise could be due to loose bolts or the need for lubrication. Check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Apply lubricant to the pedal joints and any other moving parts. If the noise persists, inspect the drive belt for wear and replace it if necessary.
