Adjustment
Adjusting the MERIDA bike to the bodily proportions of a
child is even more important than in the case of an adult
(a+b)
. When determining the saddle height you should
find a compromise that allows the child to reach the
ground with both feet when sitting in the saddle while
at the same time giving them enough space for pedal-
ing
(c)
. A safe standing (when stopping) takes absolute
priority
(d)
!
Handlebars that are too far away from the saddle or
adjusted in a too high/low position can also lead to the
fact that the child is less confident and relaxed during
cycling. Normally, kids’ bikes allow adjustments of the
saddle tilt and sometimes the tilt of the handlebars can
be adjusted as well.
Special attention should be paid to the adjustment of the
control elements, such as brake levers. Easy reach and
operation should be ensured for the child.
For more information on how to perform the adjustments
of the MERIDA kids’ bike to the proportions and needs of
your child, read the chapter “Adjusting the MERIDA bike
to the rider”. If you are in doubt or if you have any ques-
tions, contact your MERIDA dealer.
Get into the habit of doing the checks as described in
the chapter “Before every ride” together with your child.
In this way, your child will learn to handle the MERIDA
bike properly and you will be able to detect any defects
that have developed during use.
Encourage your child to tell you at once if anything
should not be working properly on his/her MERIDA bike.
Rectify the fault immediately or take the bike to your
MERIDA dealer for repair.
A Children and adolescents need to have the
saddle height and the position of saddle and
handlebars checked at least every three
months!
A Only buy training wheels that have been cer-
tified, for example, to DIN/GS.
I If you wish to install training wheels, ask your
MERIDA dealer about suitable models. Read
the mounting instructions of the supplier and
ask, if necessary, your MERIDA dealer for further infor-
mation.
I The training wheels are only an unsatisfac-
tory riding aid for very small children and
should be removed as soon as possible to
train the sense of balance of your child.
