ADJUSTING THE SCOTT BIKE TO THE RIDER
Your body height and proportions are decisive for the frame size of your SCOTT
bike. Make particularly sure there is enough space between your crotch and the top
tube so that you do not hurt yourself, if you have to get off your bike quickly (a).
By choosing a specific type of bicycle you roughly determine the posture you
will be riding in (b+c). However, some components of your SCOTT bike are es-
pecially designed so that you can adjust them to your body proportions up to a
certain degree. This includes the seat post, the handlebars and the stem as well
as the brake levers/shifters.
As all works require know-how, experience, suitable tools and skills, you should
restrict yourself to adjusting your seating position. Contact your SCOTT deal-
er, if you are not happy with your seating position or if you want something
changed. They will see to your wishes the next time you leave your SCOTT bike
at the workshop, e.g. for the first inspection.
After any adjustment/assembly work, be sure to make a short functional check
as described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” and do a test ride on your
SCOTT bike in an area free of traffic.
WARNING
If you have a very small frame, there may be the danger of your foot col-
liding with the front wheel. Therefore, make sure your cleats are properly
adjusted.
All tasks described in the following require the know-how of a mechanic and
appropriate 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 for your SCOTT bike”, directly on the com-
ponents and/or in the manuals of the component manufacturers.
