Cervélo Owner’s Manual
additional performance fitting requirements, please consult with
your dealer.
WARNING: If your bicycle does not fit properly, you may lose
control and fall. If your new bike doesn’t fit, ask your dealer
to exchange it before you ride it.
A. Standover Height
Standover height is the basic element of bike fit
(see fig. 2). It is the
distance from the ground to the top of the bicycle’s
frame at that point where your crotch is when
straddling the bike. To check for correct standover
height, straddle the bike while wearing the kind
of shoes in which you’ll be riding, and bounce
vigorously on your heels. If your crotch touches
the frame, the bike is too big for you. Don’t even ride the bike around
the block. A bike which you
ride only on paved surfaces and never take off-
road should give you a minimum standover height clearance of
two inches (5 cm). A bike that you’ll ride on unpaved surfaces should
give you a minimum of three inches (7.5 cm) of standover height
clearance. And a bike that you’ll use off road should give you four
inches (10 cm) or more of clearance.
WARNING: If you plan to use your bike for jumping or competition,
read Section 2.E again.
B. Saddle Position
Correct saddle adjustment is an important factor in getting the most
performance and comfort from your bicycle. If
the saddle position is not comfortable for you,
see your dealer.
The saddle can be adjusted in three directions:
1. Up and down adjustment. To check for correct
saddle height (fig. 3):
• sit on the saddle;
• place one heel on a pedal;
• rotate the crank until the pedal with your
heel on it is in the down position and the
crank arm is parallel to the seat tube.
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.
Once the saddle is at the correct height, make sure that the seatpost
does not project from the frame beyond its “Minimum Insertion”
mark, which means that the minimum insertion mark should never
be visible above the frame once adjusted to your correct position
(fig. 4). If the “Minimum Insertion” mark is visible once your saddle is
properly adjusted, contact your dealer to have
the seatpost replaced with a longer one.
WARNING: If your seat post projects from the frame beyond
the Minimum Insertion or Maximum Extension mark (see fig.
