G If you have a very small frame, there may be
the danger of your foot colliding with the front
wheel. Therefore, make sure your cleats are
properly adjusted.
G All tasks described in the following require
the know-how of a mechanic and appropri-
ate tools. Make it a rule to tighten the bolted
connections always with greatest attention. Increase
the torque values bit by bit and check the fit of the
component in between. Use a torque wrench and never
exceed the maximum torque values! You will find the
prescribed values in the chapter “Recommended torque
settings”, directly on the components and/or in the op-
erating instructions of the component manufacturers on
this MERIDA CD-ROM.
I The seating position depends highly on how
you want to use the MERIDA bike. Ask your
MERIDA dealer or your trainer for help. The
advice given below is suitable for typical MERIDA city
and trekking bikes.
I If sitting on the saddle causes you trouble,
e.g. because it numbs your crotch, this may
be due to the saddle. Your MERIDA dealer
has a very wide range of saddles available and will be
pleased to advise you.
Adjusting the saddle to the correct height
The correct saddle height depends on the length of your
legs. When pedaling, the ball of your foot should be po-
sitioned above the center of the pedal axle. With your
feet in this position you should not be able to stretch
your legs completely straight at the lowest point, other-
wise your pedaling will become awkward
(a)
.
Check the height of your saddle with flat-soled shoes.
This is best done with suitable cycling shoes.
Sit on the saddle and put your heel on the pedal at its
lowest point. Your leg should be fully stretched and your
hips should remain horizontal.
To adjust the saddle height loosen the quick-release le-
ver (see the chapter “How to use the quick-releases“) or
the binder bolt of the seat post clamp at the top of the
seat tube
(b)
. The latter requires suitable tools, e.g. an
Allen key, with which you turn the bolt two to three turns
counterclockwise. Now you can perform the vertical ad-
justment of the seat post.
Be sure not to pull out the seat post too far. The mark
on the seat post (max., min., stop or the like) should
always remain within the seat tube
(c)
. Always grease
the surface of an aluminum or titanium seat post that is
inserted into a seat tube made of aluminum, titanium
or steel. Do not grease carbon seat posts and/or carbon
seat tubes in the clamping area! Use special carbon as-
sembly paste instead.
