x Read the “Basic adjustments / Saddle” and “Basic adjustments / Handlebars and
handlebar stems” chapters on adjusting the saddle or handlebars to the correct height.
1.6 Frame height
For a safe and comfortable ride, it is important to buy a cycle with the right height and
length of frame for the rider. The right frame height depends on the rider’s inside leg (inseam)
measurement. It is important to take the inside leg measurement into account so that it is
possible to quickly and safely stop the cycle and dismount in dangerous situations.
x Consult a dealer about the right frame height.
1.7 Helmet
