ADJUSTING THE BERGAMONT BIKE TO THE RIDER
By choosing a specific type of bicycle you roughly determine the posture you will be riding
in (a). However, some components of your BERGAMONT bike are especially designed so
that you can adjust them to your body proportions up to a certain degree. This includes the
seat post, the handlebars and the stem as well as the brake grips or brake levers/shifters.
Contact your BERGAMONT dealer, if you are not happy with the seating position of your
new BERGAMONT bike or if you want something changed. You may also ask them during
the strongly recommended first inspection after 100 to 300 km or 5 to 15 hours of initial
use. They will carry out your wishes so that you can be sure your new BERGAMONT bike is
safe in terms of roadworthiness, ergonomics and operational safety when you take it home.
WARNING
As all works require know-how, experience, suitable tools and skills, you should
restrict yourself to adjusting your seating position. Contact your BERGAMONT
dealer for all further settings and modifications. If you want to try it nevertheless,
read the instructions in your detailed original BERGAMONT operating instructions
“Trekking and Trekking-Pedelec”, “MTB and MTB-Pedelec” and “Road Bike” on
the BERGAMONT web page and your model specific manual.
After any adjustment/assembly work, be sure to make a short functional check
as described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” and do a test ride on your
BERGAMONT bike in an area free of traffic.
Never ride your bike with the seat post drawn out beyond the limit, maximum, or
stop mark (b)! The seat post might break or cause severe damage to the frame.
Please make sure the seat post clamp is correctly orientated with the seat post
frame clamping slot in the seat tube of the frame.
The saddle should be set to a height from which you can just reach the pedal
in its lowest position with your heel. The hips should remain horizontal. Check
whether your toes reach to the floor when you are sitting on the saddle. Your
BERGAMONT dealer will be pleased to help you, if you are not happy with your
seating position. Risk of accident!
CAUTION
Make particularly sure there is enough space between your crotch and the top
tube so that you do not hurt yourself, if you have to get off your bike quickly (c).
