KONA OWNER’S MANUAL

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 and just touching the

center of the pedal, 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.

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 seatpost clamp,

- raise or lower the seatpost in the seat

tube,

- make sure the saddle is straight

straight, inline with the frames top tube

and/or not skewed left or right of the

bike's centerline,

- retighten the seatpost clamp to the

recommended torque (see the

manufacturer's instructions).

Once the saddle is at the correct

height, make sure that the seatpost

does not project from the frame be-

yond its “Minimum Insertion” or “Maxi-

mum Extension” mark [Fig. 4].

WARNING: If your seatpost is not inserted in the

seat tube as described in B.1 above, the seatpost,

binder or even frame may break, which could cause

you to lose control and fall.

2. Front and back adjustment. The saddle can be adjusted

forward or backward to help you get the optimal position

on the bike. 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 front and

back adjustment, make sure that the clamp mechanism

is clamping on the straight part of the saddle rails and is

not touching the curved part of the rails, and that you are

using the recommended torque on the clamping fastener(s)

(see the manufacturer’s instructions).

3. Saddle angle adjustment. Most people prefer a horizon-

tal saddle; but some riders like the saddle nose angled up

or down just a little. Your dealer can adjust saddle angle or

teach you how to do it. If you choose to make your own

saddle angle adjustment and you have a single bolt sad-

dle clamp on your seatpost, it is critical that you loosen

the clamp bolt sufciently to allow any serrations on the

mechanism to disengage before changing the saddle’s

angle, and then that the serrations fully reengage before

you tighten the clamp bolt to the recommended torque

(see the manufacturer’s instructions).
