KONA OWNER’S MANUAL

Either mistake can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt,
causing you to lose control and fall.
NOTE:
If your bicycle is equipped with a suspension
seat post, the suspension mechanism may require periodic
service or maintenance. Ask your dealer for recommended
service intervals for your suspension seat post.
Small changes in saddle position can have a substantial
effect on performance and comfort. To nd your best
saddle position, make only one adjustment at a time.
WARNING:
After any saddle adjustment, be sure that
the saddle adjusting mechanism is properly seated and
tightened before riding. A loose saddle clamp or seat post
clamp can cause damage to the seat post, or can cause
you to lose control and fall. A correctly tightened saddle
adjusting mechanism will allow no saddle movement in
any direction. Periodically check to make sure that the
saddle adjusting mechanism is properly tightened.
If, in spite of carefully adjusting the saddle height, tilt and
fore-and-aft position, your saddle is still uncomfortable, you
may need a different saddle design. Saddles, like people,
come in many different shapes, sizes and resilience. Your
dealer can help you select a saddle which, when correctly
adjusted for your body and riding style, will be comfortable.
WARNING: Some people have claimed that
extended riding with a saddle which is incorrectly
adjusted or which does not support your pelvic area
correctly can cause short-term or long-term injury to
nerves and blood vessels, or even impotence. If your
saddle causes you pain, numbness or other discomfort,
listen to your body and stop riding until you see your
dealer about saddle adjustment or a different saddle.
C) HANDLEBAR
HEIGHT AND ANGLE
Your bike is equipped either
with a “threadless” stem (g.
6), which clamps on to the
outside of the steerer tube,
or with a “quill” stem (g.
7), which clamps inside the
steerer tube by way of an
expanding binder bolt.
If you aren’t absolutely sure
which type of stem your bike
has, ask your dealer. If your
bike has a “threadless” stem,
your dealer may be able to
change handlebar height by
moving height adjustment
spacers from below the stem
to above the stem, or vice ver-
sa. Otherwise, you’ll have to
get a stem of different length
or rise. Consult your dealer. Do
not attempt to do this yourself,
as it requires special knowledge. If your bike has a “quill”
stem, you can ask your dealer to adjust the handlebar
height a bit by adjusting stem height. A quill stem has an
etched or stamped mark on its shaft which designates the
stem’s “Minimum Insertion” or “Maximum extension.” This
mark must not be visible above the headset
.
WARNING: A quill stem's Minimum Insertion Mark
must not be visible above the top of the headset. If the
stem is extended beyond the Minimum Insertion Mark
the stem may break or damage the fork's steerer tube,
which could cause you to lose control and fall. 13
