Now you can adjust the saddle height to the desired position. Do not
pull the seat post out as far as to let the mark on the shaft come into
view. In the case of frames with long seat tubes which continue be-
yond the top tube, the seat post should at least reach below the height
of the top tube or the rear stay! This can mean a minimum insertion
length of 100 millimetres or more.
Clamp the seat post again by turning the seat post binder bolt clock-
wise. You do not need much strength in your hands to clamp the seat
post sufficiently tight. Otherwise the seat post does not match the
frame.
Check the tight clamping of the seat post by taking hold of the saddle
at both ends and then trying to rotate the seat post inside the seat
tube. If it does not move, the seat post is firmly seated.
Adjusting the Bicycle to the Rider
Make sure the part of the seat post inside the seat tube is always well
greased. Exception: frames and seat posts made of carbon fibre rein-
forced plastic (carbon); in this case the seat post must be mounted
without grease. Use special carbon assembly paste, if necessary. If the
seat post does not move easily inside the seat tube, ask your STEVENS
dealer for advice. Do not use brute force.
Align the saddle with the frame by using the saddle nose and the bot-
tom bracket or top tube as a reference point.
Does the leg stretch test now produce the right result? Check by mov-
ing your foot and pedal to the lowest point. When the ball of your foot
is exactly above the pedal centre in the ideal pedalling position, your
knee should be slightly bent. If it is, you have adjusted the saddle
height correctly.
Danger:
All the tasks described require
experience, appropriate tools
and manual skills. Make it
a rule to tighten the bolted
connections carefully by using
a torque wrench. Increase the
torque values bit by bit, check-
ing the t of the component
in between. Do not exceed the
maximum torque values! You
will nd the values in chapter
“Recommended Torque
Settings” and in the operating
instructions of the component
manufacturers on the en-
closed STEVENS CD-ROM.
Note:
With children who are still
growing it is advisable to
check the seating position
every two to three months.
Danger: Never ride your bicycle with the seat post drawn
out beyond the limit, maximum, or stop mark! In
the case of frames with long seat tubes which continue beyond the top
tube, the seat post should at least reach below the height of the top tube
or the rear stay! In case of non-observance the seat post might break or
cause severe damage to the frame.
