WARNING:
If your seatpost projects from the frame
beyond the minimum or maximum
extension marks, it is possible that your
seatpost may break, causing you to lose
control or fall.
Saddle Position
Fit
WARNING:
Prior to riding and after any saddle adjustment,
be sure that the saddle adjusting mechanism is
properly tightened. A loose saddle clamp or seatpost
binder can cause damage to the structure. A correctly
tightened saddle will not allow movement in any
direction. Periodically check to make sure that the
saddle adjusting mechanism is properly tightened.
Failure to inspect may cause loss of control and injury.
WARNING:
The stem’s minimum insertion mark should not be
visible above the headset. If the stem is extended
beyond its minimum or maximum marks it could
cause damage or break the fork's steering tube,
which could cause you to lose control and fall.
WARNING:
If a bolt for a stem binder is insufficiently tightened,
it may compromise steering and cause you to lose
control and fall. To avoid this, check for tightness
by placing the front wheel of the bicycle between
your legs and attempting to twist the handlebar/stem
assembly.
NOTE:
Periodically consult your local dealer if your bicycle
has a suspension seatpost.
NOTE:
Making small changes within the saddle position
will make a big difference in the performance and
comfort level of your ride. To find your best saddle
position, change the positioning by making several
small adjustments.
NOTE:
Any local dealer can change the angle
of the handlebar or bar-end extended.
Correct saddle adjustment and placement
is a significant factor in getting the best
performance, as well as comfort from your
bicycle. If you do not feel comfortable in
your saddle position, see your local dealer.
Saddles can be adjusted
in 3 directions:
• Up and down adjustment.
Check for correct saddle height:
»» Sit on the saddle.
»» Place your heel on the pedal.
»» While on the pedal, rotate the crank until
heel of the foot is in the downward position,
and the crank arm is parallel to the
seat tube.
If your leg is not completely straight, your
saddle height may need to be adjusted. If
your hips are uneven when your foot extends
to reach the pedal, the saddle is too high.
If the saddle is too low, your leg will bend at
the knee when your heel is on the pedal.
Once the height of the saddle is correct, make
sure that the seat post does not project from
the frame beyond the minimum or maximum
extension marks.
• Front and back adjustment - The saddle
can be adjusted to go forward or backward
to help you get the optimal position on the
bike. Ask your dealer to set the saddle for
the best possible outcome while riding.
• Saddle angle adjustment – Most people
prefer a horizontal saddle, but some riders
like the saddle nose angled up or down.
Your dealer can adjust the saddle angle to
your preferred riding position.
Handlebar Height and Angle
The bolts are not properly tightened if you are able to:
1. Twist the stem (in relation to the front wheel),
2. Turn the handlebars (in relation to the stem), or
3. Turn the bar-end extensions (in relation to the
handlebar)
