PART 1
3.B  Saddle Position
Section 3. Fit
Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s Manual
If your leg is not completely straight, your
saddle height needs to be adjusted. If
your hips must rock for the heel to reach
the pedal, the saddle is too high. If your
leg is bent at the knee with your heel on
the pedal, the saddle is too low.
Figure 3. Saddle Position
Ask your dealer to set the saddle for your
optimal riding position and to show you how
to make this adjustment. If you choose to
make your own saddle height adjustment:
loosen the seat post clamp
raise or lower the seat post in the seat
tube
make sure the saddle is straight fore and
aft
re-tighten the seat post clamp to the
recommended torque (See
manufacturer’s instructions).
Once the saddle is at the correct height,
make sure that the seat post does not
project from the frame beyond its “Minimum
Insertion” or “Maximum Extension” mark
(fig. 4).
NOTE: Some bicycles have a sight hole in
the seat tube, the purpose of which is to
make it easy to see whether the seat post is
inserted in the seat tube far enough to be
safe. If your bicycle has such a sight hole, use
it instead of the “Minimum Insertion” or
“Maximum Extension” mark to make sure
the seat post is inserted in the seat tube far
enough to be visible through the sight hole.
If your bike has an interrupted seat tube, as
is the case on some suspension bikes, you
must also make sure that the seat post is far
enough into the frame so that you can touch
it through the bottom of the interrupted seat
tube with the tip of your finger without
inserting your finger beyond its first knuckle.
Also see NOTE above and fig. 5).
WARNING
If your seat post is not inserted in the seat
tube as described in B.1 above, the seat
post may break, which could cause you to
lose control and fall.
