THE SADDLE AND SADDLE PIN
The saddle height is adjusted by pla-
cing the saddle pin higher or lower.
Contact your dealer for information on
the best way to establish the proper
saddle height.
1. To adjust the height, the saddle pin
bolt must be loosened slightly.
2. The maximum height marks with
warning text may never be visible after
the adjustment (1). This means that the
saddle pin is inserted far enough into
the seat tube (minimum of 7 cm).
3. By loosening the saddle pin bolt
(A) or saddle bolt (B), you can tilt the
saddle and adjust it backwards and
forwards (2).
4. After having adjusted everything,
tighten all the nuts and bolts again (as
indicated in the table of tightening
torques in the chapter on Safety).
5. Check whether the nuts and bolts
are tight regularly between trips.
Some bicycles are equipped with a
saddle which can be adjusted horizon-
tally. This Batavus innovation enables
you to adjust the saddle forwards and
backwards easily, with the aid of a
quick release lever. Moving the saddle
forwards gives you a ‘sporty position’,
while moving the saddle backwards
ensures a more ‘relaxed position’.
1. To adjust the saddle to the correct
horizontal position, loosen the quick
release lever by turning it (3).
2. This enables you to shift the saddle
forwards and backwards.
3. Tighten the quick release lever
again once you have determined the
desired position. When you tighten the
lever, the handle turns 180º. It meets
with resistance during a third of this
distance and not during the remaining
two thirds. Your Batavus dealer will be
happy to show you how it works.
4. Check whether the quick release
lever is tight (beyond the dead centre
position) regularly between trips.
Various Batavus models have a Batavus
compact suspension saddle pin. As a
result of the compact design of this
saddle pin, the same frame size can be
used. There are two versions of the sad-
dle pin. One model works with the aid
of a metal spring. The other is equip-
ped with a combination metal and
elastomer (plastic cushioning) spring.
Both models can be adjusted to suit
your requirements using a hexagonal
