The height of the saddle is adjustable. Further adjustments possibly known from
your regular SCOTT bike cannot be made on dirt and freeride bikes.
For dirt biking or freeriding the saddle is set to a very low height (d) with a rear-
ward tilt. This improves your mobility on the bike under extreme conditions.
Ask your trainer, a competent person in your club or your SCOTT dealer for the
correct seating position. The instructions on how to adjust the saddle are given
in the chapter “Adjusting the SCOTT bike to the rider”.
DANGER!
G
SCOTT dirt and freeride bikes can be worn down after one season only so
that major and/or load bearing parts must be replaced. Have SCOTT dirt
and freeride bikes of these types thoroughly checked by your SCOTT dealer at
least every three to four months.
CAUTION!
A
A saddle at low height is recommended in general for steep downhill rides
with your SCOTT dirt and freeride bike. Long pedalling with low saddle
height can result in knee problems.
NOTE!
I
In the case of height-adjustable seat posts, e.g. the Reverb from Rockshox
(e), the height is adjusted by pressing a button (f) on the handlebars. Read
the manual of the manufacturer on this SCOTT info CD.
DANGER!
G
Before using your SCOTT dirt and freeride bike on most challenging terrain,
for jumps, tricks or the like, check whether your SCOTT dirt and freeride
bike is suitable for these uses. For more information about the intended use see
the chapter “Intended use of your SCOTT bike”.
DANGER!
G
SCOTT bikes for dirt biking and freeriding are true-bred sports bikes (a+b).
For your own safety, do not overestimate your riding skills. Please note that
though looking easy the tricks of a professional are hazardous to your life and
limb. Always protect yourself with appropriate and suitable clothing (c).
DANGER!
G
Due to the specific intended use, some dirt bikes are fitted with only one
brake. Do not ride these SCOTT bikes on public roads, but only on enclosed
terrain.
CAUTION!
A
Not all SCOTT mountain bikes which look like a dirt or freeride bike are ac-
tually sports bikes! If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact
your SCOTT dealer.
Adjustment of the saddle height
In the case of SCOTT dirt and freeride bikes the saddle height depends on the
use. The seating position is not comparable to that of other bikes, as in this case
it is all about maximum control and freedom of movement on the SCOTT bike.
When you set off for a long cycling tour, the saddle should be set to a height
which gives maximum pedalling comfort and efficiency. When pedalling, the
ball of your foot should be positioned above the centre 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, otherwise your pedalling will become awkward.
