Figure 1.2

Improperly adjusted seat height could aect the rider’s ability

to reach the handlebar and pedals may result in an unexpected

movement, loss of control, and serious injury or death. Follow

these guidelines when adjusng the seat height. Always

ensure the seat post minimum inseron marks are below the

seat clamp and cannot be seen. Ensure the seat clamp is

locked and the seat cannot move.

WARNING!

Seat Height and Handlebar Reach

❶ Your legs should be almost completely straight when the

pedal is in the down most posion, just a slight bend in

the knee. Figure 1.2

Note: The rider’s feet may not touch the ground easily. If

this is the case the rider can simply move forward o the

seat to mount and dismount the bicycle or the seat can be

adjusted lower if the rider is uncomfortable with the height,

but note that riding is more dicult with the seat too low,

as the legs are in an unnatural posion.

Do not raise the seat so much the knees lock straight when

pedaling or you have to move forward o the seat to pedal.

This is unsafe and the bicycle cannot be controlled in this

condion.

❷ You should be able to safely reach the handlebar with

your arms bent slightly (approximately 10 degrees) at

the elbow.
